Nel x Blu Puppies
At 16 weeks, the exceptional puppies from Nel’s final litter are available for new homes.
I reached out to the owner of the toughest, smartest, most-driven dog I have bred, named Blu, and asked if I could mate him to my best breeding female, James McCloskey’s Nel (by Sweep), who breeds big, strong, forward pups.
The result on 25-October, was 10 pups (5M/5F). Pups will selectively be ready to go to new homes at the beginning of March . Fully vaccinated and registered with the International Sheep Dog Society.
Patch
Patch is a lovable, stable and smart pup. He is showing ever-stronger interest and style in herding and the intensity to go with it. Very biddable and easy to have around. A gem of a pup. Could do practically anything, from stock work to games. He is a medium-sized pup with a strong, athletic build. Both ears are now lifted for a super look. Preference is for a working home.
Skye
Skye is the physically strong pup and has the most natural style and herding instinct. She is hyper-focused on movement with nice flanks and outruns. Skye world make a very good working dog first and companion second. Needs a working home.
Berg
Berg is big dog with an even bigger heart and an easy going, charming personality. He is the very definition of a ‘joyful’ dog: always smiling, born with inner happiness and genuine affection. Berg was drawn to me more than any of the pups in the litter, from the start. He is trusting and kind and likes humans. He will work stock, but will never be a star. Berg will find other pursuits even more interesting with his own people.
