Dear Melanie, Haven't been around much lately but wanted to wish the big guy a belated Happy Birthday when I checked in today. It is wonderful to see him looking so happy on his birthday. You have such a great way of sharing him with us, I have loved your Red dog stories for years. Here's to many many more!!!!

I ovisously picked a good time to be on vacation that being said I have to concur about the amazing dedication you give the boards. Just a personl thank you as well.

Eileen & Denise Thanks for posting the videos, I have been able to understand better whats going on. I still don't understand all of it, but it's filtering through. posts like this make me remember why I got a BC in the first place. Thanks for promoting what they are bred for, and for sharing all the beautiful dogs working.

I just added a room on to my house for the dogs, 25 x 30, with a comphy loft and stairs to run up and down. My friends didn't believe me and scoffed. They are not being invited back, I don't really talk to non animal people if I don't have to. It takes to much time cutting through the layers of, huh, why, you did what? I have made an exception for my mom. She gave birth to me, she is elderly, she doesn't know I'm a changeling. Andrea D. There is NOTHING wrong with me or any of the rest of you

I like Flora, It's a sweet name, one that if she lives up to, won't be to bad Andrea D.

Welcome to the boards! He has such a nice sweet face, he's lucky to have found his forever home with you. I concur with the others, my BCs range from 30 to 45 lbs. So he could be right on target. I have found that some, mind you not all BCs seem to have a slighter frame than some of the mixes that are hard to tell apart. If he has stocky bones he may be mixed. But then some one will post with a small tank like BC and they theory will be shot down What ever he is he is beautiful and very lucky. Andrea D.

I read about Woos commercial fame in on your blog, it made my day. I especially liked his Tail Woo Hooo Hooo But let's not malign Tweed here for lack of appeal. I think it is pure prejudice on that woman's part! You may have noticed Tweed is Black & White, every one else is red. I know this comes as a shock to every one. But Tweed is not the SAME as Red Dog and Woo. I know know this is a stunner. But that woman obviously has something against B&W animals. Start a campaign, call the ACLU or is that ACCLU ( American canine civil liberties union) This kind of discrimination must be stopped. Tweed must be avenged! Andrea D

I have three AVIDS and one Home again, I get them provided through my work, and this year they changed to HA. As a group we have had lots of little problems that have been cropping up. Mostly they call about five times a week to update infomaton and it never seems to be right. We do tons of dogs and this seems to be a chronic issue. But I have never lost a dog, & never found one WITH a Micro Chip in it, so this may be a mute point LOL. AD.

What a cutie, if you go for Nazgul, you might as well name her Wraith I like Wee Bonnie Bree, or what about Goldberry or mrs. Bombadil, excuse the spellings. what ever her name she is adorable Andrea D.

Oh big sigh of pleasure for you, here! Glad to hear Cord is back, the little begger. Was he camping out in the errr ummm bovine composet area ??? In any case it's good he's home and smelling fresh as a daisy for now LOL. Andrea D.

Rebecca, Just wanted to offer my regrets and regards in reference to Cord. I know I have mentioned this in other posts. But my beloved Emmette levetated him self out of our yard during severe weather. Much like Cord and the thunder in Cords previous walk about. He was gone 10 1/2 days before I found him five miles away digging in a farmers trash. Before that he had gotten out of a friends yard and ran the Hollywood hills for two weeks. His last escape was when an animal hospital where he was being borded let him loose and he shot out the door to an UNfenced walking area. He crossed Highway 70 and I found him two days later duing a thunderstorm trotting out side the cemetary several miles away. The point of me telling you this is to give you hope that Cord will in all likley hood be back, hopefully soon . After being gone once and coming back,the odds are better after that. I pray that this will happen and that you can hold him and gently scold him for worrying you so. I'm praying for blessings and protection for you and for Cord. andrea d.

Welcome, Your going go have fun with Mac! Andrea D.

nice pictures, isn't it nice to finaly have a digital camera. I don't have one so I know what you meant about posting with out good digital picture. Bandit sure is a cutie. Andrea D.

What a cutie he is. Be careful if you don't find his owners. I found a peke in my driveway a year ago. Did I mention a year ago. She is still with me, she wasn't chipped of course, but she was groomed and very well taken care of. Soooo I know your intentions are pure, but beware Andrea D.

Rebecca what a wonderful tribute to Ben! May he reign supreme through meatloaf and all the oraganic chile he can handle. Oh and be careful flossing the feathers out of your teeth. We all have to sucumb some time Andrea D.
