I had made my choice of pups, the bigger sable male, very pretty and had it all together. I loved the smaller sable male too. But I had a nice home for him. But unfortunately the older dog in the home was very uncomfortable with the puppy. So this little guy came back to me. Now I have to rethink everything. I love the big boy but he may be too big for show, only time will tell with that. I really like the smaller boy also. So I have decided to wait until they are four months old and make a decision. I will take measurements and the one who is closest to being in size will probably be the one to stay. At four months their whole series of shots and Rabies shots will be complete. One of them will be ready to go to a new home. I want a home that will be the best choice for him. If it is the smaller boy I want a home that he will stay in permanently. It was a bit traumatic for him to come back. But he did settle right in. If I let the smaller boy go he will need someone who will do obedience or agility with him. He is very active and loves to run and play. He is also quite the retriever. The bigger boy loves to play too but not quite as quick as the smaller boy, he also loves retrieving. He has the temperament to be a therapy dog. So I hope that I can reach a decision by May 25 when they will be 16 weeks.I would love to keep both of them but it is not fair to them. They both need my time and it is hard to train two litter mates at the same time.I have raised litter mates before but it is difficult. It is better for each pup to have their own person. I want the best possible home for my pup. Someone who has the time to spend with him and do some training with him. A fenced yard would be good. I want someone who is not gone from home all day. Guess I am looking for the perfect home for one of my boys. I have four weeks to make my decision. They are very pretty pups and I will have pictures soon. I will be working with both of them during those four weeks.
I mentioned them here as someone may know who has the perfect home for him.They are AKC registered and have very nice lines.
Their price is $2500. All their shots will be done, distemper, and Rabies. Each time they go in for their shots they get a physical exam. They are fully guaranteed. Their parents have been completely tested through Animal Genetics for any inherited Sheltie disease. They are clear of all. So the pups are clear due to parentage.
Once I have made my decision I will post here and on my website.
I am happy to answer any questions about my boys.
Spring is finally here and I am so ready to have winter gone. It was a long had winter for me and for the dogs. The sunshine is so welcome.
Sire of the pups!
