Puppies:
Born: 5th March 2016
Seven Puppies Born
Four girls who were minute weighting in at around 100grams each normal birth weight should be around 275 plus grams, unfortunately three failed to make it leaving just 4 pups,
One tricolour girl and Three black and white boys.
Medium drive pups for Herding or Agility homes
these have the potential to go to the top in any dogs sports or herding work.
to purchase a puppy from this litter or to ask about any other puppies.
Preference will ALWAYS be given (where choice is available) to potential WORKING homes (herding or competition performance sports).
It is human nature to select on looks alone.
BUT it is through our considerable experience that we advise you to take into account the puppies character in the selection process;
because selecting the wrong character is much harder to live with than the wrong white markings,coat colour or coat length.
As we like to place pups to the right home by Character we ask you give us your choice of three puppies in order of preference.
This is essential as we may well have several requests for the same puppy and we, of course, cannot dissect the puppy.
Your choices will always be considered and mutually agreed upon before final choice is made.
Character develops from five weeks of age and I will be looking closely at the pups to establish which in my opinion will make the best possible dog for your requirements,
I will tell you the character of each pup as it develops.
Puppies are marked SOLD on the website once the choice has been agreed with the new owners and a deposit has been received.
Regular photo updates (we try to do this once every week to ten days) and also try to include some video.
