I have heard that The owners were found and puppies returned :) apparently they escaped :) fingers crossed they dont escape again...

Thanks :)

Yes would be very interested in the details Thankyou

Hello Everyone... I have just received some information about 2 Border Collie Puppies found in Hervey Bay/Maryborough Region in QLD... 2 Females, 1 Chocolate/White & 1 Black/White - Not Microchipped... Details have been lodged with FraserCoast Pound. Or if you know more info about these puppies PM me and i will forward on some contact details or check out LightHouse Pet Serviceson Facebook The Story of these puppies Received a call this morning that friends living on acreage out on Beaver Rock Road heard a puppy crying during the night. When they investigated, they found one puppy in the neighbours driveway and later another in a culvert near the road. Was told they were border collie pups, however I was surprised to see how young they were. Both females, the red one more confident than the other. The shy one was the one in the culvert. The friends had heard a vehicle stop in the area last night, so that was no doubt when they were dumped. Anyone knowing anything about these two puppies, please contact Lighthouse Pet Services. The pups had full bellies and are in good condition.

Thanks, yes I didn't expect his white to fade so much, but I really do like a dark face... I think he is definetly worth the effort of importing semen :) And yes I would have to agree about my Mr Handsome Pants -Focus :)

Well how time flies when your having fun... Can't believe it is almost 9 months since i welcomed this little man into the world :) It has been a fun 9 months thats for Sure... I was lucky enough that there was a litter of BC puppies just 5 days older than him, so from just under 4 weeks of age we went visiting every week for some socializing... Thought i would share a few pics of him here he is just free standing at 7months and some from a few weeks ago, taken at Tin Can Bay With his Dam - Coco and my other new addition.. Decoy (in the middle) and a group shot minus the puppy...

Good Luck everyone and travel safe... Am sure all those on facebook have heard today that well known US Agility Competitor Elicia Calhoun was involved in an accident on the way home from a trial, her 6 dogs were thrown from the car sadly 2 have died, 3 were injured but are OK, and 1 is still missing , Elicia herself is OK but i have heard that she has a punctured lung and signed herself out of hospital to look for the missing dog... Its Very tragic and a reminder to us all to take extra care when travelling, with a huge program for lots of you at the Nationals many driving long distances, please pull over if you feel tired on your trips home...
