    Collie pups for rehoming

    Our rescue dog has had her unplanned pups, so we have 7 for rehoming. 5 bitches, one dog, one male has now found a home.

    Mum is a collie cross, incredibly loving and a very fit dog. She was running up in the hills while heavily pregnant.(http://bp1.blogger.com/_IoDbwwAfbtY/RemV-xJbBiI/AAAAAAAAAUw/ZY4Z-S3OQMA/s1600-h/IMG_0685-1.JPG)

    Dad unknown. All the pups look like collies, but no promises. More pictures of the pups here. http://sarzmountainrun.blogspot.com/

    We are based in Nant Peris, and are asking for a £50 donation for each dog to cover the vets and other costs so far.

    I'd love to say they are nice, but they are evil, ankle biting, blood sucking creatures that have destroyed our house. Poor mum has been sucked dry by them.

    It'd be great to see them all go to active homes.

    You can email me on iain.ridgway (at) bangor.ac.uk

    or call 07971 314 177 for further details.

    Cheers

    You owe me a pound now, Millipede, for finding this thread.

    We started Bella running, light runs at 6 months. Which most say is too young. But by 8 months she was easily running most routes we did, and by 10 months was breazing through 3 hr runs. But we did chose her routes carefully, so nothing too steep or rocky, or hard terrain, didn't let her jump styles (she does now). But if you can walk a dog for 2 hours off the lead, then what's the difference with running off road for an hour. Ours know what's a walk, when they can play, pester us to throw things, and when its a run when they leave us alkoe and do their own thing until a play time towards the end. Ours HATE road running too, even a short section is met by Bella hanging back 20 yards behind you with a little sulky face, as soon as you go on to a path she shoots off happy again.

    5 Bitches, 2 mainly back ones, one that looks like a pig due to a totally white collar, and two with white noses with black spots.

    Once our web starts working at home we'll put portraits on the blog of each pup.

    They are very sociable and love playing with other dogs.
