Jaydens- Rowena,- SD-c, PAT,- CGC It's all about- the frisbee!!     Barked: Wed Oct 27, '10 9:13pm PST  Tail Waggin Training Center in Levant, Maine (Central Maine area)- They specialize in raising and training dogs for children with Autism. They will also train them for other needs, but I highly reccommend doing their owner-trainer program. It takes a real committment, but they will see you through. They are a "For Profit" training facility and a service dog from them is costly. If one wanted to get a trained dog from them they would need to do some fund raising. Rosie and I were certified as a service dog team from these guys (a married couple with 2 children -one with Autism). Since we were their first owner-trained certified service dog team I felt very honored that they trusted their reputation with us.

I can't remember their alphabetic titles are. www.tailwaggin.net my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Border Collie > How much does your Border Collie weigh?

Jaydens- Rowena,- SD-c, PAT,- CGC It's all about- the frisbee!!     Barked: Tue May 19, '09 4:47pm PST  Rosie is about 20" tall and finally up to 35 pounds! It took us so long to get her food that she liked and her belly liked too, and finally nearing 5 years old, I feel she has evened off. She is a petite border collie, but lean and lanky too. And of course, sopping wet looks like a toothpick. This year her hair has filled in nice and thick, and that makes her look filled in as well. She has a sister that is only 17" and was almost 37 pounds about 2 1/2 years ago. Rosie was about 19 or 20" and about 30 -32 pounds at that time. I have noticed that many US farm bred border collies tend to be taller, but lean. They usually tend to have a thinner coat than show bred dogs for the most part. Rosie took after that half of her family. Her sister had a long fluffy, thick coat as did her mom. She has a similar coat and build as her father who is from mostly working dogs. She smiles like him and has that same lively look about her eyes like her dad as well. I like the variety in border collies, and farm or other, I love them all dearly. The Pet Smart trainer (or was it Petco) doesn't know dog breeds that well. You look all border collie! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dalmatian > Miniature Dalmations?

Jaydens- Rowena,- SD-c, PAT,- CGC It's all about- the frisbee!!     Barked: Thu Apr 2, '09 6:24pm PST  I met a "miniature dalmation" the other day at Petco in my town. It did not look like a dalmation at all. It had ticking, not spots, the head and snout were not shaped like a dalmation, (tapered down into a narrow snout, head was not blocky enough at all) the ears were folded back, the fur was denser, and the body was long, but the height was all wrong. It looked more like a terrier mix, like maybe a Jack Russell/and some sort of pit bull mix. The owner prided the fact that she got this dog from the only breeder of this breed in the whole state. It looked like a full breed mutt. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Puppy Place > Help! What is she mixed with?!

Jaydens- Rowena,- SD-c, PAT,- CGC It's all about- the frisbee!!     Barked: Mon Oct 20, '08 9:58pm PST  ...also remember that there are many breeds that have a white collar, white stripe down the nose, white belly and paws and possible white tip on the tail. Aussies are one, but so are St. Bernards. Many hounds, pitties, Corgies... Her ears are floppy and more rounded than my BC and a few other pups I have met. They don't always hold their ears straight down (not many I have met), but sometimes up and flopped over on their heads or folded slightly. When they grow up, they can stand straight up (erect) or fold and stick out or back on their heads. Refer to Rowena's photos for examples. Hers are not erect standing. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Puppy Place > Help! What is she mixed with?!

Jaydens- Rowena,- SD-c, PAT,- CGC It's all about- the frisbee!!     Barked: Mon Oct 20, '08 9:47pm PST  Her head seems awefully boxy to be a border collie, and her ears are quite floppy looking. My first feeling was St. Bernard mix. I see the Aussie, but again, the ears look kind of too floppy. What ever the breed, she is adorable and she will have quite the fluffy coat! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Puppy Place > What is the strangest breed you've been mistaken for?

Jaydens- Rowena,- SD-c, PAT,- CGC It's all about- the frisbee!!     Barked: Fri Jun 20, '08 5:00pm PST  A Saluki Puppy... Huh?? my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Jaydens- Rowena,- SD-c, PAT,- CGC It's all about- the frisbee!!     Barked: Tue Jun 3, '08 8:07pm PST  Just keep in mind that there are many dog breeds that have similar markings as a BC. They are very common markings to see in all types... even seen in Pit bulls. That being said, you do look like a BC from what I could see, but I would have to see some more pictures to get a more accurate view of things. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
