We have been busy attending "Meet the Breeds" events, and the collies have been acting as wonderful Ambassadors of the breed.
Kori and Ryder - perfectly in sync!
And Holly, taking time to play!
They were even invited to ride on a float in a parade, at a local fair!
Happy Girl!
We had a lot of fun at the parade, but Ryder had the best time! The crowd of spectators were cheering for him, calling him Lassie, and taking his picture!
Now that we seemed to have fixed the bug, we promise more posts to come!
Wow, it's been a tough month or so. Kia was attacked by the dog, the merger happened at work and I now have new bosses, my niece was killed, Holly had to have her toe amputated...I'm almost afraid to consider what might happen next!
But life goes on, and it's beautiful here in New England. We have been so busy! We attended a Meet The Breeds event.

Another club member brought her two rough collies too. Everyone loved the collies, but Ryder was definitely the star. Adults and children commented on how beautiful he was, and one little boy told his mother to "look at the fancy collie!"
Our club held a herding day, and many different herding breeds attended.
Holly
This boy was just too cute!
Kori - she did an excellant job on her herding test, just like her mom, Abby!
Friday, we took a few of the collies for a ride, to take some Fall pictures....

Ryder - I love the way the light in this picture seems to be shining down on him!

We received many compliments on the collies, everyone loved how well-behaved they were. One of the owners of the farm markets said they were better behaved than most children, and could come back anytime! We are hoping for some nice weather this weekend, so we can take the collies on a hike. Thanks everyone for your comments on my previous posts, things are finally getting back to normal!
