Aussie_Chick Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I really wasn't expecting to get a new dog so soon after Gemma,but my cousin's girlfriend (who's in a rescue) contacted me about this poor girl....and of course i couldnt resist! Matilda a 2 year old border collie,who's heavily pregnant and due to give birth any day now!We picked her up today and she is one of the most beautiful dogs I've ever met! :D Full of doggie kisses and with one of the sweetest temprement's ever! She belonged to an elderly lady who brought her as a pup and couldnt handle her destructive behaviour.She was left in a tiny yard all day with little to no excersise. She fits in so well here its great :D The other dogs all get along with her and she's fascinated by the sheep.When she's given birth and fully fit again we're going to let her play with the sheep,just for fun :) And desex her of course :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mouseatthebusstop Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 the sad thing is the old lady does not want her because she is having puppies - bet she has another dog within a month hope all goes well with the delivery of the puppies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

izzy Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 1. Shame on that lady for abuse on the dog, it's great that you're giving her another opportunity. 2. Shame on you for abuse on us telling us about a new dog without showing a picture :P [size=2]j/k of course[/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie_Chick Posted January 23, 2005 Author Share Posted January 23, 2005 Well hopefully one of these days my b/f will gget off his butt and by my a decent digital camera :wink: lolHopefully it will be soon!I really want to show off my beautiful bunch :D Matilda's doing great.She had a bit of trouble with Kellie (my dobie cross) a few dominance issues,but Im working with them on it and they seem to be getting along much better :D . She's lately became very restless and I think she's almost ready to give birth,so fingers crossed the whelping goes ok and mumma and bubs are fine :) bk_blue-The daddy of the pups is supposably a boxer who lives next door to Matilda's old owner....so Im not to sure what the pups will be like at herding :roll: .But I'll let them in with the sheep when their young and see how they go,if they dont pick it up they'll enjoy it anyway :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__crazy_canine__ Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 BC/Boxer mixes, eh? Hmmm... thats something new. I cant wait for pics. I bet they'll be adorable! What color is Matilda? Do you know what color the (suspected) father is? That be so awesome if the father was brindle.... any brindle pups would be just adorable! :iloveyou: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
