Astra (ArdentHeart Astranomical) is obviously a gorgeous girl but she's not just beauty, she is brains with a sweet but sassy personality. She is tug and food motivated and always willing to work for her meals. I can't wait to get more training time in with her to see what she can do.

On Monday the babies all had their last vaccines at 12 weeks. Echo stayed with us for a couple nights and Duhan visited for a couple hours yesterday. Needless to say, they were some tired pups by the time they went home.

Week 10 weights - week 12 weights
Astra 6.025kg - 6.8kg
Duhan 6.1kg - 7kg
Echo 6.3kg - 6.95kg

Which officially puts all puppies past half Nova's last weigh in at 13.3kg🫣

Echo (ArdentHeart Solar Flare) has been such a sweet and silly boy to raise. He's been so confident and not really phased by much. He reminds me of his mother in so many ways and I can't wait to see how he turns out. Again, so glad he found a home to where I'll be able to see him regularly. ❤️

Duhan (ArdentHeart Blazing Sun) made me laugh so much each day. He's such a little personality and just wanted to do everything all of the time. He's found a slightly quieter life being the only dog in the house and settles more...maybe a good thing I didn't know that! Was hard enough to see him go but am grateful he's found a home that will still let us see him. ❤️

Another eventful weekend for the pups. Nova's 4th birthday on Saturday and a flyball comp for one of my other dogs. Shh, don't tell Nova! She got some treats picked up for her on the way home.

The babies got to come visit with everyone for about an hour and quite enjoyed the experience. Then today Duhan puppy left with his new mom (miss him already) and has been settling well so far. Just about one more week and Echo puppy will leave with his new family as well.

Astra 4.845kg - 5.365kg
Duhan 4.965kg - 5.370kg

Nova x Riverspell Border Collies's Taboo are officially 8 weeks old today. First vaccines are tomorrow. Next week Duhan is off to his new home to start flyball and the week after Echo is going to his to do hoopers.
It's been another good week with them. Lots of socialising done at our inter-team competition on Saturday where they got to watch some flyball and do loads of socialising.

Astra 4.310kg - 4.845kg

The babies have had a busy weekend. They've had their first van ride with minimal fuss. Their first look at flyball. They loved meeting some of the team then settled and slept through a fair amount of noise. Several visitors today, including a canine visitor, and some play with their "uncle" Atticus.

Week 6 weights - week 7 weights:
Girl 3.305kg - 4.310kg
White-headed boy 3.450kg - 4.345kg
Thin-blazed boy 3.355kg - 4.455kg

Also! Officially introducing them:
The merle girl is ArdentHeart Astranomical "Astra," my keeper girl going on to do flyball and hoopers...and maybe a couple other things. We'll see where the future takes us.
White-headed boy is ArdentHeart Blazing Sun "Duhan," going on to do flyball.
And Thin-blazed boy as ArdentHeart Solar Flare "Echo?" going on to do hoopers.

I can't wait to see them in the rings.

The babies are growing like weeds and running around everywhere. They and Nova were BAER tested yesterday. All tested normal, not that there was any doubt. I also didn't quite think the thunderstorm desensitization would come in handy so soon, or possibly ever😅 They weren't bothered though, which was good. Woke up then straight back to sleep.

They've done pretty decent today, putting up with all my photography shenanigans and have people over.

Week 5 weights - week 6 weights:
Girl 3.125kg - 3.305kg
White-headed boy 3.150kg - 3.450kg
Thin-blazed boy 3.135kg - 3.355kg
