We’re getting ready!

 What a busy week we’ve had!  Our co-breeder came to see the puppies, and while nothing is definite, we have begun the incredibly difficult task of choosing who is staying.  At this point, it looks like two puppies might be staying, as they are turning into beautiful collies.  And we might be looking for a show home for a 3rd puppy, as she is turning out to be just as beautiful, but we absolutely cannot keep 3 puppies.  But they are still very young, and are changing constantly, so we will know more after their eye checks on February 4th.


Pretty Morgan has been spending time with me, and I’m so in love with this puppy!  Now that she is 6 months old we entered her in some upcoming shows.  She still looks like a puppy, as she’s still in her puppy coat, but it’s growing fast with all the cold weather here in New England.  We hope to enter her at the Collie National, so she can use the practice at these shows.  (And hopefully she’ll pick up a few points at the shows.)



Tonight and tomorrow are going to be busy, as we are getting ready for a huge snowstorm.  They are predicting at least 12 inches, but possibly up to 18 inches of snow coming on Sunday - Monday.  Looks like I’ll have Monday off from work, if the meteorologists are correct.  I’m going to squeeze in a visit with the puppies tomorrow, as it looks like I won’t be driving once the snow starts.  To everyone in the path of this storm, stay safe and warm!

  3. That sure is a difficult task to pick just one of those puppies to keep. Momma is doing such a good job with them. We could get up to 2 feet of snow here thanks to lake effect.

  6. I love the beautiful collies. It would be so hard for me to pick just one or two. Take care, have a wonderful week.

  7. Lulu: "The puppies are all beautiful! We know you will choose wisely! Also, our Dada's family has been keeping him informed about all that crazy weather and snow back East. I sure wish I could go play in it ..."

  8. Oh, my, they are so beautiful and adorable! I'd want them all! I can image how difficult it is to make that decision. Morgan is gorgeous!!! Hope the storm was not too bad by you...it wasn't bad here. A lot of snow, a fresh foot fell on top of the already existing foot, but no ice. Just icy cold temps in the negatives to 3 above. Brrr. Next week in the 20s, so heatwave time! Stay warm and oh, those puppies are just so gorgeous. I can smell the sweet puppy breath from here!
