Tambovale Border Collies

June 2008, Manny and Finn have been joined for the last time, due to whelp early July, as Manny will be retiring from maternal duties after this litter. With the hope of an exceptional female pup to carry on these impeccable lines.

The following pictures are puppies from the last litter, their previous mating. All of the following puppies have found loving homes both in pet as well as show. The feedback from these homes has been wonderfull. I kept two males from this litter, Wilson and Shaemus, they are the best natured males with loads of personality. Smart, handsome and a delite to own.


A typical Tambovale Border Collie Pup. Showing balance, beautiful head, length to height ratio, perfect. A lovely pup. With the temperament to match. Congratulations to Kathy and Don from Bright in Victoria for their choice of pup. Looks like he will have a great show career and loving family to boot...Photo taken at five weeks of age.	Well Manny we can see by this stance its time to begin the weaning process. What a great job you have done. All your babies are strong and healthy.

Manny, Tambovale Othe Mana Born. These picture's taken with current puppies 3 weeks old. A picture of health. Allways looking for work.	Manny and Finn babes, 3 weeks old, and climbing out of the whelping box. It has been so hot this week they have been spending their time in the number two whelping box at the back door under the eaves in the shade. Its great I get to cuddle them every time I work out the back door, great time waster.
