Hi Chick...thank you very much you guys ROCK Awesome pic's

[Deerskin and Anja]

great pics! thank you! those are some happy, contented puplets, for sure. though i was kind of wondering about two pics on the last page...their feet looked kind of pinkish, not red, but not knowing what they look like normally, its hard to tell. but it looked like they might be starting some problems perhaps. i know if my collies had feet that tint, it would be time to rest them for a few days...our older of the two has a problem with breaking claws for some reason, even kept short, and when he was working for our son as his SD at high school, tagg got sore footed a couple of times, and his feet were about like that. he hates boots, so i had nothing to do but rest him at home

I saw Lance had a bottle of pink stuff he was putting on their feet in one picture, could that be what you are seeing?

Not to worry about those dogs in the pictures "Team Mates". Those are Lance's dogs and he puts on an ointment that is very pink in color - like a medicated skin cream. The dogs are doing fine! Lance did drop 2 in UNK, however, but not these two!

Very observant!!

...not observant-paranoid. Anja gashed her forepaw a couple years ago, so badly i thought she was going to lose a big chunk of her heel pad and perhaps not be able to work after that. but somehow we managed to get it healed up ok....thank God for EMT gel and boots! took almost 6 months, but its only a thin scar
