The new kennel is coming tomorrow and I am having a lovely big pen fenced (mostly to keep Flyn in!!) As my situation has changed and I am working a lot more hours than before I really need to keep the dogs secure.
Don't be alarmed though, they still come to the yard twice a day, come hacking with me on the moors, go shooting in the season and live in the house when I am home. My son currently only does three days a week at 6th form too and he takes the dogs on mamouth walks when he is home.
He has yearned for a collie dog of his own for years - hence the new kennel etc.
So, I have been searching all the rescue homes in my locality (not many) and am on the look out for a border collie bitch pup. It would be nice to get one from a rescue but to be honest they are so cheap to buy as a pup I am not surprised there aren't any in rescues.
I am well aware that my son may well leave home in coming years without his dog but am very happy to take it on - lets face it, its a damn sight cheaper to transport a dog than a horse and I quite fancy doing a bit of agility or flyball - you never know, you might see me at Crufts in five years time!!
Anyway - if anyone can find some border collie pups for rescue in the Southwest, just let me know please
