Tell us about yourself: Hi guys! I'm Kels(ey). I'm fourteen years old an have fallen in love with the breed when I mt one three years ago when I met my cousins rescue boy. I studied them, and will continue!

I curretly dontown anything close t a Dutchi, but two and a half dogs.

Id first like to bring in Althea de les Chasseur, or as AKC/USDAA/NADAC knows her as KC's Identity Crisis. She's a sx year old (as of october 5th!) Epagneul Breton from field lines. We've been competing in agility for eight months. She's my little princess, and everything I could ask for in a dog!

Next, is my unborn puppy, who already has a name. Zoom, a working bred Border Collie from Culleymont Farm. (S)he will be coming home around May hopefully, and willbe training in obedience, agility, herding, ad dock diving.

Lastly, is my mom's dog Toby, or Shuffler's Bid according to USDAA. He's a Chihuahua mix, but thinks he'sa Great Dane! He's a spunky guy, and loves to spin, bark, and spin some more.

Hey guys!

I'm Kels(ey, I nswer to either!) And a absolutely in love with Dutchies (and BCs!)
Pretty basic stuff, since I'm on my phone.
I'm 14, freshman in high school, hope to be a dog behaviour counsellor and nutritionist.
I compete in agility and rally and dock diving with my epagneul breton, Replay (reeperty, reeper the creeper, reep)
I'm getting my first woking bred BC next spring, and will be training him/her for herding, agility, and obedience.
I hope to get a Dutchie in 2015/2016 for schutzhund, heding, lure cursing, agility,and others.

I came here to learn more abou the breed, talk to fellow juniors (and other handlers!) And obsess over pretty dogs ;)

If you have any questions, please ask!

Tell us about yourself: I am in New York State. Got my first DS about 14 years ago (more or less as a rescue- lost her in Nov.). After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger. Shorthaired Pointer/ Yorkie and my current Jack Russell) I now have another DS, 4mo female, no name yet, tho I have a few in mind.
Also have a horse-old quarter horse mare-32.
Can't wait for all the snow to get gone! Spring is coming too slow this year!

Hey Kels!

Welcome! That's an interesting combo...liking both BCs and DSs. Of course, they're both in the herding category, and are the Einsteins of the dog world (and of course, BCs own agility).

Hope you like it around here. Ask questions and etc...we need some new topics here!

Welcome, Kels!! I've seen some working line BCs with as much intensity as a DS (I know guys, but seriously I have :yernuts:) A close friend is a herding judge and he has some champion herding BCs. They will work ALL day long, mind you. Cant go wrong with a herding breed. You will learn lots from those on this forum so ask away or do a search.
