I have just seen and ad on Facebook. Someone has Purebred Kelpies for sale, but they are Tri coloured? I can't find anything about this being a coat colour, has anyone else heard of this? BTW she is selling them for $50 so my guess would be they are not Purebred

This is our Jazz. Robbi, can't say I've seen that colouring here in Tassie!

Thanks dancinbcs! Very informative post I'm glad someone understood it. FANTASTIC POST :D And Yes it would be easier to follow if they all had the same name!

I tell ya, it's mighty difficult to find a Red/Tan Male in Tassie

Thank you for the replies :D I get it now, just needed it in simple terms, lol

I didn't even think about the movie! Yes, you could be right there. We are wanting to keep a female from our girls next litter and we do prefer the red and tan. With Jazzy's first litter we were very selective of the homes and they all went to working farms in Tassie. I am still in touch with 7 out of the 9 owners which I think is great!

Certainly makes sense! Thank you I will have to do some research when I find a Male on what their previous litters have been :D

Hi all, I need help regarding the colour genetics when breeding. I have been looking on the internet but I seem to be mo0re confused! Our Purebred Kelpie bitch Jazz had her 1st litter of pups in May 2010. Jazz is a Red and Tan and the dog we used was Black and Tan, ALL 10 (1 still born) were Black and Tan. My question is, will we only be able to get Red and Tan offspring if both parents are Red and Tan? I do hear conflicting statements, hence the confusion. Both Jazz's parent's were Red and Tan but on her Sires side there seems to be alot of Black and Tan down the line. Any help would be appreciated, Thank you

Hi all. I am in southern Tasmania and we are looking for a Red and Tan Male for our girl Jazz. I'm not having much luck so far and would appreciate if anyone here could point me in the right direction. Cheers

It seems like only yesterday that they arrived. Growing so fast With Uncle Eski

Gorgeous photo

Hi guys, just thought I would update you on the pups progress. 4 weeks old and after a visit to the vet for a routine check, all 9 pups are happy and healthy After our concern for our runt, Indie, she is just flying along. Mum never tried to move her (or any other pups) again, so very happy with the outcome. Mum got a checkup also and our vet said she is a picture of health. This being our first litter, we sure have learnt alot and I'm sure there is plenty more to come.

How quick they grow!!! We are just loving these bundles of joy Pic's taken today at 25 days old, not many because my camera batteries died I could just keep they all Really on the move now Our runt Indie, who is doing wonderfully

Congrats piper It's a great feeling isn't it. All the very best.

Earthdog. I put "pending" in because I had to registered Bullet as he wasn't registered when I brought him I only got his certificate today and I have now put in his correct registered name

My breeder and I are very close :D We too went to thier wedding and it was a beautiful and fantastic day. She arrived in their Shortgarden Kelpies ute It was awesome

LOL, that is Onyx He is my fave, they are all very cute, but this boy is super cute!!!

I thought this would be a great topic as I am really only aware of degenerative disorders of the Kelpie. So I will start The kelpie is a generally sound breed but the degenerative brain disorder called Cerebellah Abiotrophy is a concern and has been since the mid 80's. This disease affects a dog's coordination, balance, depth perception, stance and motor skills. It can be very obvious or only slight. This horrible degenerative brain disease can affect even new born pups. It is a recessive gene that can be carried by dogs that show no signs.

I would LOVE to receieve photo's and updates on the pups I had bred. We have our first litter at the moment and when it's time for the forever homes, I will certainly be encouraging this

As most of you know, Rajaro Kelpies has a litter of 9 black and tan purebred Kelpies. This is our very first litter and was wanting some ideas on where is best to advertise them when the time comes? The Tas country is an obvious one for me but what are the other options? Thanks

I wouldn't expect my dogs to defend me from another dog or person. We often laugh at Jazz, she will bark and hackles come up ( and it's quite loud and scary) if a stranger comes into the driveway and then when they get out of the car she runs upto us and hides She will continue to bark until we tell her "it's ok" Thats all I ask :D On the other hand if close friends pull into the driveway, we don't hear a thing!

As I am now learning Cockerlover. I only wish I had joined DOL earlier. Just spent time and handle each pup doing the stimulation excerise's. ( I printed it out to make sure I was doing it correctly ) Whilst doing this which each pup, I also payed attention and spoke to Jazz and she was more than happy for me to be handling her babies, as were they As the info suggested I will do these excerise's once per day (as over stimulation can have adverse and detrimental results) and will continue to just play and love them as normal. That was soooo enjoyable for all of us. THANKYOU, THANKYOU, THANKYOU
