(13,833 posts)I almost got puppy fever when I checked petfinder "just for fun" last week and saw two female Aussie puppies. But a puppy would be unfair to my very old dog. My young do OTH would love it. If I saw a speckled girl like that I wouldn't be able to help myself.
I keep telling you what a beautiful dog she is because I can't help it. I meant to ask you, is she a Texas Heeler (Aussie/Heeler mix)? I keep thinking that there must be Austrailian Shepherd in her, but maybe BC. I love herding breeds! I need somebody intelligent around the house!

(8,020 posts)Shadow's a lovable eight year old puppy-at-heart. She was rescued in a litter of ten, then chosen with another of the pups to live with a foster mom and that's where we met her. And fell in love right away. As a young puppy she followed us around outside, inside, wherever we went, there she was. So she became our Shadow.
Her heritage is: 1/4 Border Collie 1/2 Blue Heeler plus Husky, Golden Retriever, Austrian White Shepard.
As it happened, we adopted Shadow when our old female dog Sandy was still alive. Sandy tolerated Shadow and even began to play with her. Here they are/were together.
