New picture of Ben, My Smooth Collie

[Spiritwind]

Hi Everyone,

I haven't posted on here for a good while, but I have a new picture of my smooth Collie I just got today.

Last weekend Jan 17th and 18th I took Ben to some all-breed dog shows in Michigan. On Saturday he was winners dog for a 4pt major, so here is his show picture!!

Woohoo! Way to go Ben. Only 3 points to go. Easy stuff for such a looker. Then on to the obedience and herding titles for the tail end of his name, huh? ;) :p

And the pups are gorgeous as usual.....

Do you have a show pic of Misty?

I was waiting to see what Foam had to say...
He does look like Oz!!!

Congratulations!!!!!
Can't wait to see more!!!

Thanks everyone!!

Sorry I didn't reply sooner.....

Anyway to answer your question Foam. I'm not sure how much Ben weighs, but he is 26" tall at the shoulders. I would say Ben is about 60-65lbs... and he will be 3 yrs old on Monday.

Bart, who is the sire of Misty and Kira, is about 70-75lbs... he isn't as tall as Ben, but he is heavier built.....he is a big boy, but he is 5yrs old so much more filled out.....he's a rough tricolor.

You think so?? I don't really see it. I mean other than them both being merle smooth collies. But that could be like saying binka_nugget's Kai and Kaedyn look like Emily (all 3 sable shelties) and of course they don't look alike at all.

Ah, Misty is a cutie! :)

What a wonderful photos :) Adorable... Kira and Mistu are awesome :D
