    You may remember I posted pictures of his incredibly cute litter when they were born 3 yrs ago. I really wanted one, but knew they were all destined for show. I looked at those pictures for two years, along with all the ones of him growing up posted on his kennel's website. So when Sue told me she was retiring a show dog, & let her know if we'd be interested - I thought, wouldn't it be great if it was one of those pups? ...and it turns out that Jack was my favorite from that litter! Kind of feels like "destiny" that he's joined our family. (heehee, little joke there - his kennel is called Destiny Siberians, & he's "Destiny's DaVinci")

    Zack looks like he belongs, too - now you have three stunning pups instead of two! Big hugs to all!
    Awww, thank you so much for sharing that. Yes, it sounds like Jack was Destiny . BTW...I remember you posting that picture of that super cute litter of huskies and now I keep an eye on Destiny Siberians. You're right I love that Jack! Give him and Star big hugs from me!

    Thanks again for all the awesome comments everyone!

    Wondering if this might mean that Zack went to have the big snip?

    Zack is so handsome. Congratulations on the adorable new family member. He looks just HUGE, is he, or are the photos deceiving?

    Rachel, yes Zack had the big snip yesterday. I posted in dog health for that one. He is doing super today.

    Leslie, I think Janna said that he is a big boy. I can't remember what the akc standard is for collies. Yesterday he weighed in at 72.7 pounds. I think he is also slightly taller than Katie. Last time Katie was measured I THINK she was at 24 inches. I'll have to try and measure them all.


    You folks have all been GREAT! Thank you so much!

    I hope you're happy Robin. Now I want a Collie! They are all just beautiful. I keep coming back to look at the pics! I too have always loved Collies.

    Yes.. he is a big boy! He is roughly 26" tall at the shoulders... He has also gained a couple pounds since he got his rabies vax down here a few weeks ago LOL but male collies are typically 24-26" tall and 60-75lbs (from the Collie breed standard)... females are 22-24" tall and 50-65lbs. Zack was my biggest male, though Ben, who lives with my mom is the same height as Zack, Zack is bigger bodied... with a broader chest... so he weighs more. Ben is usually 65lbs max....

    Paris (who is a Zack daughter) is my biggest female at around 60-65lbs and 23 1/2 MAYBE 24" tall... she is about as close to a female version of Zack as you can get... and she is a large female, but next to Zack she looks MUCH smaller, because he is such a big, filled out, masculine dog... and of course they ALL think they are lap dogs... ask Robin, they were crawling all over her and the couch when she was here last Saturday! LOL

    Janna
    If you're gonna breed Collies, don't you forget to breed in the brains and common sense. Without that you won't have a Collie, you'll have just another dog.



    I've Been BOO'd!!
