Riverrun Collies



TANNER & STELLA LITTER PICTURES


(GCH. Galatean A Good River Runs Through x Mainstay Back of the Moon)





Pups all had health and First Vaccinations on Tuesday March 20th.   Dr. Cobelli of Quarry Ridge Vet Clinic came to our house for the appointment.   So much easier than taking the whole litter in to the office!    Everyone passed with flying colors - hearts, ears, eyes, bodies are great!   We will be doing an exam with a veterinary opthomologist, Dr. Stuhr, of the Animal Eye Clinic in Wilton, on the 4th of April.

We have given all the puppies a  real "name" as their personalities are really starting to come out.    Ears were put up with fabric glue - we put a tiny dab of glue on the edge of the ear and pull them up together.   This is the first step in training the collie ears to tip over in the right way.

At this point in time...Danica will be staying here at Riverrun.
