* 23 May 2009 Congratulations to Paula (Tookurra Border Collies) on gaining those final points on Mckenzie's title. AUST CH Tookurra The Wild Card (sire of our first aurorafire litter).
* 22 May 2009 Aurorafire's 3rd litter is on the ground- arrived on its due date for once. KC had 11 puppies. Mum and pups seem to be going well. Ok now one would have to guess that I am slightly obsessed with the twilight saga. To that end. I would like to introduce the following: Bella, Edward, Jacob, Alice, Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper, Crusier (ben insisted i name one after his car), Carlisle, Quill and Seth. Let's hope they dont live up to their names and act like vampires and were wolves- but i do hope they have the vampire's beauty, strength, coordination and special talents.
2009 It has been a busy year so far, where I haven't been able to do much competing in the dog world as to date. Although our dogs have enjoyed a break with plenty of exercise, play and interaction like the special part of our family they are. Max and Cobar are training for their ET titles, KC and Tanami have been able to tag along at every opportunity also.
