I'm knackered after all that cutting and pasting..................not easy after a glass of the old amber nectar :cheers:
 
Thanks...........I know I'm biased but they are so cute..................I have started to get up earlier for work so I can have "quality time" with them............the kids think I'm mad (w00t)
 
[Gorgeous pups - love the colours and markings. The pup with the one black leg is very cute and those with the parti-pink/black noses - :wub: :wub: :wub: My favourite is the brindle boy though - smashing!! :wub:

And five boys...................................

Hi, Having just lost my adorable boy 'Bradley' last wednesday (valentines day) to kidney failure at 13 and a 1/4 years of age, it really gladened me to find this site & see these puppies.

When we purchased 'Bradley' 13 years ago, he was sold to us as 'a blue merle' border collie, but before very long we discovered by his head & body shape that he was more likely to be a blue merle collie crossed with a whippet (also his way of barking gave credence to that too!!!). As he grew older & we delved into this type of cross deeper it became more & more likely that we were right.

Seeing your puppies, the top picture of the section entitled & five boys.................. Bradley as a pup was just like the top picture of the 'little boy' with the pink splodges on his nose (they disappeard inside as his nose grew - lol), also he has marked similarly facially & he looked pretty much the same colourwise until he got his adult coat & then he became more of a brown colour in some areas (difficult to describe but he did look more grey with black splodges as a pup)

He was such a character, could run fast & had a lovely temperament & fitted in so well, you are very fortunate to have such a beautiful new family, with all the fun those puppies bring.

The picture I have uploaded shows 'Bradley' last autumn, thanks for helping me to begin to smile again.

I'm glad your computer has the same evil demons as mine and eats photo's (w00t) lol. Its quite hard knowing that they will all have to go except for 'dot'.....................named so because of her nose!! They are remarkable little creatures and so inquisitive and intelligent, too intelligent sometimes and before you know it they have escaped,ransacked the bin and are sitting there surrounded by rubbish with little wicked grins all over their faces :blink: I know how hard it is to lose a friend who has always been there for you and i hope it will always get a bit easier. Will keep updating pics and hope it continues to cheer you up :)
 
Hope this has worked now - if it has here he is hobbling along! this was 'Bradley' last autumn aged nearly 13

Bless him, I cannot believe he's been gone a week already.

Hope those lovely puppies are doing well

Aaaaw bless him :wub: :wub: I guess there is nothing a sure as the fact that time marches on, it's a week now and then 2/ 3 etc.It sounds like bradley will never be forgotten tho :) As for the tiny devils, they have perfected the art of climbing :blink: Found one out of their enclosure and wonderd how she escaped...............think she must be related to a mountain goat!! then they all followed lol. Def got our hands full. Hope they go to loving homes............soon :D (w00t)
 
Hi! Have you still got the little perishers, or have they found homes?

Have you any more up to date pics?
 
Sorry been so long replying, dunno where time goes these days :( The pups have all gone, just the one left we are keeping, will put some pics on when I get the digi camera back from kids!!
 
We will be wanting plenty of pictures of Dot AND Matt !!!

:b
 
DOT is now 5 months old and hoping to be an Agility champion.................so far she has managed to negotiate the kitchen work tops, pinch the sunday roast and make it to the kennels in time to wolf down the whole thing............but we still love her :wub: :wub:
