Penny- Freebie ,Her mum was supposed to have been spayed and was given to a family turned out that she was pregnant and she had 4 pups, her new owners gave us penny. then did not want an unspayed dog and dumped her at the lost dogs home. (We would have taken mum as well if we had of known)

Clover- Ad out of the newspaper, we payed $20 for Miss Clover who was one of 11 pups in her litter. The people had not spayed their Rotti and the ACD from up the road got to her

Theodore- Pet Shop unfortunatly we let our hearts rule instead of our heads. Mum had wanted a Chihuahua for a long time and when we saw Theo and his lil bro at the pet shop we could not leave him there. But never again will we do that.

I told my Mum i "needed" a new Flyball dog as Clover is getting older and is slowing down, and that i was thinking about a Border Collie. She thought one more dog would not hurt.

Elvis is from a from a farm (Working parents) his breeder only has one litter every few years, if that. only 2 of the pups survived and the breeders wanted to keep the female (the farmer likes females better for work)

In the end no-one wanted Elvis (he had been promised to me in the first place, but then the owner of the stud dog wanted a male pup but never came to pick hime up) so i got my Border Collie.

My next dog will be from Border Collie Rescue Australia, or from our local RSPCA. Preferably a Aussie Red BC female (there are quite a few getting around in rescue people get them because they "look nice" then find out what BCs are like and cannot handle them)
