Jazz ~ Marne, MI

"Here's a couple of photos of Jazz (8 months old) & Abbe with their ribbons. She is so pretty, all I get are compliments on her markings and she knows it. Abbe and Jazz took first place overall in the junior class for conformation. Abbe was ecstatic. They also took second place in group, which is synchronizing 4 dogs in obedience exercises." Roper & Brinley pup born 11/27/05 pka "Rollo"

Johnny Ringo ~ Portland, OR

"This is Johnny Ringo with our son, Dustin. They are best buds! Ringo is such a joy! He loves to play fetch and herd our cats. He also likes camping and hiking. He’s not at all fond of large bodies of water, but he loves kiddie pools! He’s a real lover, too. Always wants to be with the group. Thank you!" Roper & Brinley pup born 11/27/05 "Ringo"

Dot ~ Corvallis, OR

"Dot is doing great!! What a personality. She loves everyone. She loves to run the bases with my son's baseball team after practice. The only thing that has as much energy as an Aussie is a group of 10 year old boys! She is really turning into a beautiful Aussie. People always comment on her beautiful markings and her glossy coat. Dot completed Puppy Kindergarten and is taking Beginner Obedience this summer. She doing great. We are looking forward to eventually doing some agility. She is a wonderful dog. Very spoiled and much loved!" 12/06 Update: Thanks for the cute x-mas card from the Aussie Posse. Dot (Rosa) sure looks a lot like Brinley. Dot is doing great and looking forward to her first Christmas in our house. She has been very involved in everything from wrapping presents to decorating the tree. She is happy being wherever the family is. This last fall my son taught Dot to play football. This seems to be her favorite sport so far as she likes the body contact. :0) She responds to the commands, "down, ready-set", "hut, hut". It is very funny to watch. Though this skill may not win her any ribbons, it has earned her the respect of many 11 year old boys as they try to get by her for a touchdown. She definitely has the moves. Our local paper puts on a pet photo contest and picks the top twelve pets to be in a calendar. We entered Dot and out of 400+ entries she won the "Miss October" spot. :0) She recently had a "photo shoot" for her calendar picture. I will send you a copy when we get the pictures. Thanks so much for a wonderful Aussie. She has such a fun personality and is a very treasured member of our family. She never fails to make us laugh and is so happy just to be involved in whatever we are doing. We are looking forward to many happy years together! MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ryder

"Hi, Ryder is doing great. He has been so spoiled. My son Trevorr that was with us when we picked him up baby’s him. David will call him wiggle butt. He will stand there and wiggle his butt when he gets excited. He also calls him poopers. My mother-in-law says he is a very pretty dog. She loves that he is well mannered. He doesn’t act spastic. Everyone loves him a lot. Talk with you soon. RoseAnn" Roper & Brinley pup born 11/27/05 "Ryder"
