The Pack

Tilit and Ticket were in their first show at Ventura Fairgrounds and did really well for being pups that are just nine months old.
Tilt took Winners Bitch and Best Opposite for a 3 point major!
Ticket took reserve and did very well but still needs to just grow into his body a little more.

Both Tilt and Ticket just love Agility, Flyball and herding. Their Training is going well for both of them. Ticket and I are also attending an obedience class where he is doing everything I ask of him.
I think he will be a really good obedience dog just like Inky.

Inky at the Ventura Show finished his Excellent Rally Title and Zing finished her Advanced Rally Title.

Waggz had fun at the Agility Trial but managed to knock a lot of bars.
I was waiting until he could tell me that 22 inches was to high for a 10 1/2 year old to jump.
I think I will start showing him at 16.
He did come out in second place in the Steeplechase Finals:)

All in all the pack is doing great

Tilt And Ticket

Tilt and Ticket are almost 5 months old and they are having a blast with puppy life.
They each have a built in play mate and wrestle together all the time.
They attend Obedience and Agility practice sessions and classes with me and just love to run through the agility tunnel and then get their tug toy as a reward.
We are working on correct body placement with the clicker for Obedience and also free stacking and staying for the breed ring.
I do not want to work them to hard as a puppy really needs to just have fun at their age so that is what we are doing just having FUN.
They also think that Sheep are pretty fun to go chase after.
I am sure that they will want to continue with that fun adventure.

All in all I am very happy with the way that they are coming along.
They will continue to keep me on my toes!

Tonka, Tremor,Ticket and Tilt

Puppies are 9 weeks old tomorrow and they are full of you know what!
They really are all GREAT nice pups. They all have structure for the show ring, performance for Agility/Flyball/Herding or Obedience and are really sweet with all people and kids and would make wonderful Therapy Dogs. They have been exposed to many different things in there short 9 weeks of life and nothing seems to get under their skin.

Tremor went to his home last Monday, Tonka is going to his home this week, Tilt is staying here with the Van Hoy Border Collie Klan and Ticket is looking for that really special show/performance home.
He truley is a very special pup in all ways. I will hold on to him until I feel I have the right place for him. I am getting very attached to Ticket so my husband better watch out.

Go check out the photos.

Tally X Zing Puppies

Tally and Zing Pups wer born on 24 April, 3 Boys and a Girl.
All are very Happy and Healthy and have doubled their weight in the first week.
They are making silly puppy noises and trying to walk but they really look like a drunken sailor.
There eyes should start to open this weekend and many changes are in store for them and me as they become more mobile.
Zing is a GREAT mother as I knew she would be, but really what she wants is to get back on the Agility / Flyball field.
Soon little crazy girl...

Puppies are on the way!

Zing had an ultra sound on Friday and we saw 5 puppies.
Her Due date will be April 25th.
I will get another x-ray a week before to see if we missed any extra little creatures.
I can not wait as they are going to be pretty special.
