OMG... I cannot believe how fast they're growing up! : D They are gorgeous litttle babies.

Those pictures of the blue boys playing nearly killed me. I swear.

OMG OMG EEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

I love the second one.. that one steals my heart.. what a bunch of dolls

AWWWWW!!! They're so adorable and getting so big.:)

Oh my, cuteness overload.:love:

Cute, cute, CUTE!! the first photo looks like the pup is snuggled under a blankie with his head on a pillow? Aw how adorable!

Oh my goodness! Aren't they about the cutest little things around!! They look sooooo grown up already!!!

thanks everyone! I will take more pics on Monday to add to this thread, since they will be 3 wks on Monday....

As far as the rough tri boy -- yes, he likes to crawl under or between the blankets and sleep.. he is like a little groundhog. It drives me nuts because Im afraid his mom is going to step on him when she comes in and out of the whelping box, but she always seems to know where he is.... but he is always crawling under the blankets to sleep. He also got the name "Spike" because I don't know if any of you have ever seen the movie "The Land Before Time" its a cartoon kids movie about dinosuars, I think was out in the early 80's?? Dunno.. I know I watched it as a kid in the 80's..... anyway, spike is this fat, mellow, lazy, easy going dinosaur in the movie.. all he wants to do is eat and sleep.... well that describes the rough boy perfectly... he is this mellow, easy going boy... you pick him up and he is just limp like a ragdoll... and loves to just sleep in your lap... so he is Spike... lol

Where as the 4 smooths are little spitfires!! LOL Fiesty little things...

If all works out as planned.. the smooth tri girl should be going to a home on co-ownership about an hour from here, where she will be doing agility, rally and conformation!.. and I'm hoping also herding.... as the sire of this litter was an amazing herding dog in his younger days when I did herding.... he has also done some agility..

One of the smooth blue boys should be going to a show home in Indiana, and rough tri boy should be going to a pet home in Ohio... if all works out.... obviously not for several more weeks (not before 10wks of age actually)...

Pending eye checks which will be done between 6-7 wks of age... and how they continue to mature the smooth tri boy will more than likely be staying... I just love him, he was the first pup born and he has been my favorite since birth..... the other smooth blue boy might stay to grow up here a little bit as well.... but whoever stays, since these bloodlines are slow to mature - they might be able to show in conf. as cute 6-9 puppies.. but after that they will need to grow up and mature before doing conf... the plan is for me to take them up to the training place I do flyball with Paris... and do some obedience, as I want to do agility again in the future... its been atleast 5 yrs since I've done any agility at all.. and I'm kind of missing the fun performance stuff.... and now that I found out there is a place a lot of collie people go to do herding that is about an hour from here I'd like to get back to herding some with the dogs again..... since the sire of this litter was an amazing herding dog, I'm hoping these guys will have the drive for it as well...

Oh.. and here is a picture to show you how the two blue boys learned to play like they did... here is Kelsey (mom of the litter) as a 2 1/2 -3 wk old pup playing with her sister the same way LOL

I loved the playint pics... way way too adorable!!

aw.. puppies, so adorable :D

I want the rough tri male, please! :D

Really Cute! :)

Gosh, they are just too darn cute!!! Spike sounds like my kind of dog, lol. I like the lazy, laid back dogs, lol. They are all gorgeous... I think I'd keep each and every one of them!
