lets see Shadow was given to my dad by a naighbor who found her wandering the ally the rest of us were in kelowna for the summer, then one day my we got a letter in the mail with picture of little shadow sitting on top of her doghouse! I did not meet shadow till like 2 months later.

Happy, well I had wanted a puppy ever since I was little, I was told I could have one when I was older, when I was 13 I still remebered that promise and I decided I was old enugh lol so me and my mom started researching different breeds, my mom was set on me getting a silky terrier, but I prefer the bigger dogs lol later we started looking at border collies, after I found out about them looking in a book. we had also been looking at the shelter for dogs. we looked at several farms for a BC puppy, till my mom found out about Happys litter looked at the website and everyone fell in love with the pic of Happy at 7 weeks. oh I also almost adopted a german shorthaired pointer, but he was gone within the day. but when we went to see happys litter I fell in love of Happy and brought her home!(after some begging lol)

Perky, we adopted the same year as we got Happy, because both me and my mom were handling Happy in flyball, and my mom wanted her own flyball dog, so she started checking out the shelter till she found Perky fell in love with her, brought me and the other dogs later that day and brought her home in the same trip.

Ripley, well we had been looking for a companion for shadow since the others did not like her much lol, just a pet, not an athlete or anything right, well my mom saw him at the shelter, called my dad at work who ordered her to adopt that dg right NOW. lol so she did and whne I came home from school that day I had a little black dog I had never seen before run to greet me at the gate lol

Misty, after we retired Happy from flyball my mom TOLD me I needed another border collie lol. believe me that shocked me right there! so we started hunting, and found the ad for mistys litter at master feeds, so we called, aranged a time to see the pups, picked out Misty and reserved her, and went to pick her up the morning of christmas eve.

Blair, well my mom was looking for another dog but she NEVER planned on a pyrshep lol but Blair has some problems as a puppy and his breeder(also Happys breeder) asked if we wanted him, for free because she did not want to sell a sick pup, and she thought he would benifet from being fed RAW so we took him
