Here’s some pics of the farm-dog pups (as opposed to the spoilt PoshPups)…
Mum is Mac’s Diva (from the first Boylee Fred-Daheim Queani litter, not to be confused with her litter sister Mac’s DiscoDiva):
Diva is a lean, athletic bitch who seems to be a nice combination of her father’s (Fred) biddability + stock sense, and her mother’s (Queani) athleticism, working drive + easy-going nature- and hopefully the natural cast of both. Her siblings (from 2 litters) are working well across the state, with people wait-listed for another litter (maybe), and of course DiscoDiva and Maverick are doing agility in Perth.
Dad is Badgingarra Jake, Richard’s young kelpie dog. From Neil Kristiansen’s Northam stud, Jake has some of the most successful utility lines in WA behind him- his father is Badgingarra Jock, this year’s State Yard Champion, and his grandmother is 1998 National Kelpie Field trial Champion Badgingarra Bra (who went to sleep forever recently, aged 16). He’s full-on, has absolutely no respect for his own safety, attacks everything like a bull at a gate. A real working fool- but when he settles (usually with lots of work), he’s pretty impressive, strong but eager to please, natural backing dog. Plus he’s really good-looking!
The pups are all girls, 4 black, 2 black/tan, and they are pure feralness, in every sense of the word. They dig out from under their run, explode like fireworks across the ground, and don’t stop moving until they crash. A couple of them came along for a day trip to Tarwonga for the States (watching their 2 grandfathers battle it out for 1st + 2nd in the Yard final), and did their first leash walking. Looks like 3 of them are off to working homes soon, possibly 4, and one might stay. So there’s one or two still for sale, if anyone’s interested…
