Lance's First Day

When Lance first arrived at his new home his ears were
glued down to ensure the cropping of the tips
which is suppose to be.
I knew that I  was not going to show him, he is my pet.
I took the glue and padding off of his ears and as he grew,
his ears started to stand up. 
They call this "Pricked Ears"  I actually like his ears
standing up.

Collies

>> Sunday, January 25, 2009

Collies are amount the most intelligent dogs around, and that 
they are.  Collies must have a good amount of yard space,
a Stable and Happy home.  They are very sensitive dogs, just 
raise your voice a little bit and they will start to shake as if
they have seen a ghost.  They are curious about everything
you do, and everything around them (thats why they have
long noses).  Collies makes great watch dogs, even though 
Collies have no aggression at all, they'll still let you know
when someone is near by.

About Joker

The Breeder had called me when Lance was a little over a year
old, and asked me if I would like to have his half brother
because his owner returned him to her. I said that I would be
happy to have him. His name was Joker, I did not care
for that name but he
was already over a year old so I kept his name.
When he came to my Husband and I he weighed
only 44 pounds. Collies do not do well in a unhappy
home like his former
owners who were getting a Divorce. They will stop
eating and become very stressed. After about a year
later Joker was weighing 65 pounds, and then after two
more years he now weighs 73 pounds, Happy and
Healthy.
