Ruhe sanft, liebe Kati Stille Grüße Christine

Hi Julie, thank you - Lone is doing quite well - its me who needs more education. Next weekend we join a clinic of John Jones (Wales) He comes to Germany for three days, and i hope I will make the same steps forward as Lone did. Christine

Hey, i found a really interesting site in the world wide web: Facts about Paul Turnbulls Blue Kind regards Christine

A swiss Handler (Urs Imhof) won the European Championship this year in August (in Liglet, France) And last year the European Championship was held in Switzerland. Greetings from Christine

Hey neighbor, Yes. I know a lots of Hybecks. They are all very talented. Jim is a really good studdog. He inherits a lot of important good things,his friendly nature and a very good trainability, for example. Indeed he has in his pedigree a bearded Border Collie. In Lones Mother line, also third generation, there was Paul Turnbulls Blue. A "real" Bearded Collie. Greetings Christine

I dit it! The day before yesterday i sent some photos of Lone - and today she´s in. The Border Collie Museum Christine

And here´s my German Shepherd, Giant schnauzer, Terrier crossbread. I remember that when i took this foto and placed it on my website - it was the first time that i recognized, that Lone looks different... I wasn´t aware before... because when you have your puppie always around you don´t see how it "mutates" Greetings Christine

It´s funny, i read all your experiences with the so called experienced people We discussed exactly the same in a German Bordercollie Board. And does this answer also sound familiar to you ? Oh ? This is a bordercollie ? I heard, they must be employded 24 hours a day Christine

Thank you for this interesting link - í´ll wait a few months and see how Lone matures and then i will send some photos to the bordercollie-museum. At the moment nobody believes that she´s a "real" bordercollie. Most of the people think, she´s a Giant schnauzer/German shepherd/Terrier crossbread Lone herself thinks she´s a pig Christine

Thank you very much for your warm welcome. Its very interesting to read here. I write in a German bordercollie board as well and it is very similar. Lones parents are still on stock. It was the first litter of her mother Kyp, who works as a farm dog at the belge/dutch frontier. Originally she is from Wales. Her father Jim (ISDS No. 277807is one of the most favourite studdogs in Europe at the moment. He was winner of the European brace championship last September in Switzerland together with the bitch Lass, also owned by Serge van der Zweep. Lass, by the way, was winner of the single championship (and Jim was fifth) I had several clinics with Serge and felt in love with his Jim... and so last november the dream to have a daughter from him became true. Here is a photo of Lone made on the day, when she arrived on our house. You see, she looked totally different and the Turnbull Blue Genetics decided to surpise us a few month later If you like to read more about her father click here It´s all written in English. And here is some more information about me - unfortunately in German. Lots of greetings from the other side of the bc-world Christine

Thank you very much for the compliments A friend took all this fotos. Its also her picasa Album. And another friend found this site for me. We are some people with bordercollies and sheep and from time to time we meet us to have a little training together (Germanys size allows that) I own some skudden, Scottish Blackface and Schnucken (sorry i don´t know if there´s a translation). Best wishes Christine

Hello, my name is Christine and i am from Germany. Since november last year i own a new border collie (beside my two older ones Nelly 7, and Lucy 5) Her name is Lone. Her father is Jim (by Serge van der Zweep) and her mother ist Kyp. Kyp has got Turnbull Blue in her pedigree. Since 2 month now, Little-Lone begins to develop a very special outlook. Greetings after so many years from Turnbull Blue : A beard grows in her face. I began to search in the internet for some relatives of Lone - and lucky-me, i found this board with so many pictures. Although Lones development is not yet ready, i will show you some pictures of her : And here are some more : Lone and friends Lots of greetings from Germany Christine and her unbelievable charming dogs
