I had no interest in borderpaps, was not even on my radar ... but then I started getting them in classes, and I fell in love. They are not like border collies, they are not like papillons - they are their own little thing and I ADORE THEM. They make me happy just to be around them and I knew I needed one in my life. I looked into making my own with Bryn (they would have been ADORABLE!), but in the end, I really liked the dogs that Rayna Stout had bred, and I didn't feel the need to reinvent the wheel. I contacted Rayna and the next thing I knew I had a Haven! She's a multimix, who ended up with a surprising amount of cattle dog! But we love her spice, no complaints.
Haven has just been a delight, the dogs just love her (including Haku!), and Bryn and her are BFFs. She's charming, she's fun, she loves to train, loves to play and is such a wonderful addition to the household. I'm so pleased to have made the leap, even if I didn't really need another dog right now. No regrets, and I can't wait to see what she grows up to be! In the meantime, she just charms everyone she meets - including me.
