Flamincomet Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 I joined this forum a while back when I had my first border collie, Le'loo, and just recently "found" it again. Luckily I remember my password, lol. Anyways, my old BC unfortunately had to be given up to rescue, because my step-mom and dad prefered my brother's 7 pound mix to my 40 pound BC.... very sad, but I made my dad drive 5 hours to give her up to a rescue I contacted, last year I heard that she was adopted to a family on the beach. Now that I've moved out however, I've gotten another BC, Ghost. He's 6 months now, and a little ball of energy.... like all BCs of course, lol Here are some pics. Le'loo Ghost I'm taking agility classes with him (Just tunnels and stuff, no jumps) but I was interested in herding also, though I don't think there would be an instructor near my area. I'm located in Washington, does anyone have a search engine or list that I could look at? Autumn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayleegator Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 OH, he's a pretty boy! My girl Kaylee is six months old, too, and would love a race and round of bitey-face with your Ghost. He has a marvelous face, will certainly be a handsome dog. She was born May 26: do you know Ghost's birthday? We have to wait until next summer for agility classes, they're just not offered here in the winter, but we get out for hikes and walks and dog park, and for snowshoeing, before long. My DH and I both work from home, so we spend a lot of time with Kaylee. We're doing basic obedience, of course, but mostly just a lot of play and shaping into a great companion. We've got our challenges, of course. The biggest one we have is the pogo: the WAY over the top greeting of human visitors. K's also 'pixie-led', obsessed with shadows and reflections. And she loves to dig up my garden, but hey, it'll be frozen and covered with snow soon, and that will buy me a bit of training time. Welcome back. Keep us posted about your Ghost-busting activities!

RaisingRiver Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 There's many herding opportunities throughout WA. Just depends where you are. If you could post up what city you are in or nearby - and how far you are willing to drive to get to class, that might narrow the recommendations Also, you should probably ask in the herding section.

Flamincomet Posted December 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Ghost's birthday is June 19th, same as my mom's, so now I will remember my mom's B-day!!! .....I know that's horrible, LOL, I'm terrible at remembering important dates though.

Kaylee has the same birthday as my youngest daughter (now 20): are they astral Gemini twins? Or, as in the Golden Compass movie, is Kaylee her daemon, her soul in animal form? At least, I can remember one day for both, like you! Le'loo had such a cool mask, almost a Batman mask! I hope he's doing well, getting to run and dig on the beach a lot. Ghost, now, has an amazing coat. I bet he enjoys the snow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea about astralogical signs and such, I just know that I'm a Libra, lol Last I heard L'eloo got to go run on the beach every day Ghost actually doesn't have that much coat, he was 9 weeks in most of those pics, and very poofy, but as he got older he's actually smoothed out a lot, his fur is now really wavy though! It drives me crazy sometimes. Autumn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flamincomet Posted December 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 My fiance was nice enough to go drive back home and bring the camera back, so here are more pics of the "killer puppy" As I found him Punishment! That's another toy I need to sew up! Who knew he was capable of such a crime? Autumn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyoBC Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 Awww Ghost is a very cute puppy. I'm happy to see that you went through so much to rehome her. Most people just "sigh* drop them off at the closest aniaml shelter and go on about their business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borderlicious Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 Ghost is really cute, Autumn! IIRC he's a half-brother to my dad's Dakota? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
