When you are really a proper farm dog inwardly but just need a little bit of a leg extension to meet your full potential!!

Love having this little one around . Terribly timid to start with, her character and confidence is really starting to shine through

Tomorrow night we will have a little time in a friend’s round pen

Only two weeks since this little 2 year old bitch came in to my life. She's putting on good condition, has bonded completely with me and totally focussed on me. Always kenneled before , within two days she was safe to be off the lead in the house and now asks to go out. Her confidence is right there now and we start back with some sides basics with the Hebridean ewe lambs at the weekend

That sounds promising for you both. Keep on with the updates

First little bit of schooling with some Hebrideans. Thanks to Freddie for stopping the gaps and taking the photos. 15 minutes and she got steady, we achieved a couple of good stops

My OH urged me to take the odd house dog out on the farm occasionally as they don't get enough walks at the moment. Started with Nessa, our biggest, very interesting to see the change in behaviour when she's away from 'her' pack and with my two instead

My new arrivals today. Unfortunately by Caesarian as the first pup was presented across the cervix. All 6 are alive & kicking luckily. 3 dogs and 3 bitches.

About to pour a large G&T to recover from the bill....

Relieved they are all out OK though

I’ve only ever bred 2 collie bitches and both times they’ve needed Caesarians.

They are a bit lovely mind you

Puppies growing like crazy. I’ve got 3 that I’ve short listed but I’ll wait to see what personalities they have. They’re all a bit like hairy slugs at the minute.....

The little one got a new outfit for her first birthday, the misses couldn't find any red ones in age 1-2
