It has been such a long time since we updated you all!! The last litters of puppies have just had their first birthday and it was wonderful to receive photos and updates from their owners. We have loved seeing them grow and seeing all the activities they are involved in.
Molly has had a return to the show ring this year - and now that she has grown some coat, is doing very well. She has enjoyed a number of class in show wins this year. Toby is enjoying giving obedience a go and will hopefully give Rally Obedience a try in a few months. He is also hoping to get back out to herding lessons as well. For those who have been waiting for news on possible available puppies - we won't be having a litter this year at all and probably not for the next 18months. We would encourage you, in your search for the perfect sheltie puppy to join your family, to do your research. Ask what socialising the puppies do before they come to you and what types of protocols the breeder follows. Ask what health testing of the parents are done and if DNA testing has been done. Owning a puppy is a lifelong commitment and it is important to make sure you are comfortable with the breeder and that you will receiving ongoing support from them.
