1 year old needs foster home

This fuzzy boy needs a home. He at OHS in Portland surrendered for nipping the kids. Shelter life isn't helping his nerves. Let me know asap if you need more info.
UPDATE: Apache is now in foster care. Contact me directly if you care for more info. He will be posted after some adjustment from the shelter life.

Our little "mop top"




Todays moment of sunshine was just enough to capture new photos of little Libby and momma Fiona. Can you tell she hates to have her face washed or her hair combed? And look at that fluffy tail. Our tiny girl is growin' up.

For those who miss the latest on Border Collie rescue dogs here's a bit of news. Mark and Julie in Beaverton have been fostering for me. They have made some good placements and will now do it on their own. I transport when needed and help online with posting etc. So far I've been able to find foster space/placement for the Borders I'm aware of needing rescue without bringing them here to Shedd. Thanks to everyone for offering support and keeping in touch as I take a break.

A gift for the carpet!


Having 28 paws tracking rain and mud into the house I thought I'd splurge and have the Border Collies groomed professionally as a gift to our carpet. Lucky for me Shedd has a wonderful grooming shop within walking distance. 

Erin was first to be done. She looks like a puppy again.



Libby is making sure it was all done right.

Next it was Bonzie's and Betty Betty's turn.
Betty Betty is my mud loving girl she's always the most wet and coated in dirt.

Apparently not wanting to be too fancy she promptly came home and rolled in poop....

Bonzie looks great.


A nap was the first "to do" for Bonzie when he got home. It's tough being beautiful.

Next week Bud and Tess have their turn.

Libby's 5 months old!

I've been a lazy blogger. We had some sun today so took some fresh Libby pictures. What a mess of hair! Luckily the hair on the rest of her body is short.
