Our future puppy that we will pick up from Cottage Grove, Oregon in September. In June, Papa visited the Vashon Sheepdog Classic and talked with various Border Collie handlers. He eventually met Laura and her dog Badger who was going to have puppies in July. Smudge, as named by Laura, was whelped 17-Jul-2016 during a herding trial she was holding at her farm. Badger's litter included 7 pups where 4 were females. All the females are black and white, while all the males are tri-color.
