Borderstorm

Bex and Rodney are currently
working well together in Grade 6
When I asked Rod
for a few words to describe Bex, this is what his wife Anne had to say, tongue
in cheek I think!:
"I'll put a few
words together about Bex. For starters, Rod says she is a typical Borderstorm -
laid back and calm," (yeh
right!) "especially around the agility ring" (no
chance of that!). "Early training has been
difficult as she lacks motivation and seems uninterested"
(wishful thinking - shes nuts and never switches off). "If she doesn't take to
agility, she will make a good lap dog" (hehehe if you can
get her to sit still for long enough). "Never the centre of attention and always
at the back when there's anything happening" (of course
Anne!). "Such a delight to live with - oh
and she didn't chew almost every banister spell going up our stairs, or the
kitchen chairs or started on several doorframes!!" (now
that DOES sound like a Borderstorm!)
Hehehe, well, he
did want a dog with attitude this time! Serves him right! Yep, Bex is a
real minx!
 |
 | The third pup to make an appearance at 18.54, this little girl was
the baby of the litter at only 9.4 oz - still a healthy weight though. |
|
|
 |
| Week 1, she has doubled her birth weight to 18 oz. We call
her Brittney. |
|
|
|
 |
| At 2 weeks, her eyes are open and she weighs 26 oz. |
|
|
 |
| At 3 weeks, she's finding her feet. Louise comes to
visit, and spends hours holding up her and her sister Beyonce. They
are sooo similar. In the end Louise chooses Beyonce and Brittney is
still not chosen. |
|
 |
| At 4 weeks, she's starting to catch my eye. She's not the
most forward of the pups, but boy is she cheeky! Rod and Anne, with
daughter Katy visit weekly, and Bex is on their list too. |
|
|
 |
| At 5 weeks, she still a little dot compared to the big boys, but
still holds her own. Her markings are getting very flashy indeed and her
eyes are a lovely deep colour. |

|
 |
| Britney is a stunner, she is a live wire and always takes the opportunity to
pounce on the others. She and Baby Dare love wrestling together, I
looked long and hard at her as she is very finely built and petite too, and
will be very flashy. |
|
 |
 |
| I decided on the merle, and when Gunna was chosen by Alison, Rod
decided on Brittney over Ronaldo and Beckham. She's now Bex. I
don't think she'll take long to sort those Belgian Shepherds out - after
all, they need to be herded don't they? |
