Introduction - my pets :)

Hi everyone, Just an introduction about our wonderful dogs :)

I hardly post on these message boards but i decided to put on a picture of our 2 dogs. The German Shepherd/Border Collie mix is Sadie. And the Miniature Australian Shepherd is Buster :)

They are both just about 2, we got them a few weeks apart in the fall of 2011. Sadie came to us from my husbands sisters boyfriend's grandparents in September 2011, We had planned on getting dogs, just did not know when, and over summer of 2011 we talked and we did not know what to get.. In the start of September, my husband's best friend was sadly taken from us in a tragic car accident, and about a week after, his sister said that they have a few Shepherd Collie Mix pups left, 4 months old, So we went out after work one day to take a look, and they were quite cute, but my husband was not convinced, until this sweet little girl comes sprinting off the patio, and ran up to my husband and he bent down to her and she put her paw on his shoulder. Sadie came to her new home that night :)

 I had already been doing some research on dog's and as i am a very active and energetic person, i looked into Miniature Australian breeders, and came upon a pretty awesome lady who allowed us to come out and visit and show us the pups, was a fantastic place, and after looking at all the puppies i just could not decide, until she had said "we have one more.. but he does not get along with anyone" and i said "try me" so she took me into a little section of the acreage where in a small pen, this cute little Blue Merle boy, laid in the grass, i took one look and i had my cheque book out in a second. And little Buster came home with us :)

Training 8 week old Buster, and 4 month old Sadie, took quite some time, but i can honestly say, they make life, a much happier place.. from training them to give "high fives" to "hugs" to various other tricks..they make life wonderful

 

**Trying to attach a picture so if anyone could assist me id appreciate it!***
