New puppy!

[ShrekDawg]

Yeah I would love to! Hopefully we can!


Just got Zoey's mate! He was shipped in from Texas (poor puppy was in a crate the entire day), from these people who breed aussies for herding. The man who breeds them breeds them to be 'big boned' so this puppy is just a bit 'stalkier' then Zoey. But he's adorable I just love his markings! He is a blue Merle but doesn't have a lot of grey in him (his brother looked like a regular blue Merle, but we like him better) his face is looks brown. His mother is a beautiful Merle, I can't tell if she's red or blue, she looks like a brown Merle!

the father and mother are both great looking standard aussies. The puppy (we named him Duke, ya know, from john Wayne? Huge john Wayne fans over here lol)
Is about 5 months old, sadly a bit older then we wanted but at least it's not like he's full grown

a bit skittish but probably he just needs to settle in with his new surroundings. He loves Zoey's crate for some reason

Here's a picture of Duke:

Here is him meeting Daisy (Daisy is not happy that we keep on getting other dogs

she prefers to be an only dog, she gets jealous lol)

I hope you can too!

And wow he's handsome! And the color's pretty interesting too, especially if the mom is unique too, should maybe make some interesting puppies. And being a little bigger boned and from herding lines should be nice too; maybe with Zoey they can make a more medium build nice sized dog and with the herding background, the pups should be pretty versatile and able to do most things

Aww he loves her already

The age is a little unfortunate but Zoey's what, like 4 months old now? So that's not too much of a difference and by breeding age, it shouldn't matter much if at all

Poor Daisy! LOL

I think older dogs always give a big sigh, when another pup enters the family. Some of them act like they are long suffering and I suppose sometimes they are. A puppy can drive an older dog nuts and the owners. Just when you think housetraining is set in stone and new ones come and breaks the rules.

Hope your new boy works out well and give a big hug to Daisy for me.

Poor Daisy! LOL

lol yes Daisy's like "where are all these puppies coming from!?" Right now she's just establishing that she's th alpha dog. Yes I can't wait for the puppies, they will be excellent dogs. Especially since Zoey and Duke both have calm temperaments, their puppies will have great temperaments. Duke has almost reached sexual maturity so he is...starting to mount poor Zoey

don't worry we're keeping an eye on them. Good thing though, Zoey doesn't seem to hate him. As I write duke and Zoey are running around the house playing, aw I love hear puppies. They hardly even bark

just gotta work on Zoey jumping. Went to an agility show the other day, Zoey got to meet a lot of dogs (which is good for a puppy) and I got to watch agility (a lot of people there loved Zoey and told me I should do agility, oh I am so going to!!) Duke is AKC, like Zoey, so we will have AKC puppies.

Here's the pictures of the parents;
The dad (SuperMan) is nice and has a good build, he's a black tri as you can see:

I love the mothers (Sissy) coloring, I haven't seen it before:

(It's not great quality, lol just took a picture of the computer

Aww I will

Yeah you can definitely tell Daisy gets annoyed when a little puppy wants to play with her lol now hopefully she'll get some alone time now that Zoey has a friend her age Lol!

Sorry, I completely forgot to reply before lol her parents are beautiful! To me it kinda looks like jist red merle or maybe chocolate merle? But then her head above her ear looks kind of blue.

Glad they're all getting along and seems the puppies will be great!

i haven't heard of a chocolate Merle, but I now know Duke (the puppy) is a harlequin colored with a blue Merle gene. Where any grey is turned to white... I think. I just saw a website with a puppy that had the same coloring as Duke and was saying how it's a harlequin color. Maybe his mom has some sort of harlequin gene in her too.

I know! Can't wait till June 2018 when zoey will be ready!!

Well, I haven't either, I kinda just made it up lol idk if it's a real thing but it's the closest I can think to describe her lol

But wow that's a cool color and should throw cool puppies!

And aww I bet lol

yeah i would probably call her a Chocolate Merle too XD but I've yet to find another dog that has coloring like her. It would be awesome if we could get some of her coloring in with duke and zoey's litter though! i think its a cool looking color especially since its not common.

 

[ShrekDawg]

Yeah, definitely closest. And wow really? I hope you can get some of that coloring in then.
