My new swamp collies

Ben, I am sure glad you are excited about those pups.. At this point , I see no reason those pups won't make good dogs. Just remember, dont get kennel blind, Clue would be the first to tell ya they all sure as heck dont make the grade for one reason or another. If they don't, don't waste time, cull em go right back get some more, you'll find what ya want there. Jim Bob or Wendy will get ya some pups down the road that should work well with them. If you can talk Chance out of one down the road, I really like him, his program and his dogs, think they would work with them well to.
I know those pups are bred right and have been for many generations. They all have to work for a living and do it right around there to keep eatin and it's been that way for years and years. Clue's tough on em and holds to a rigid set of standards. He's the kind of feller a man should look for when lookin for a pup.
I think their daddy is the best cow dogs I have seen work in many a year and the pups I see he is producing,no doubt in my mind that he's gona make a name for himself in the stud dog department. Their mama is pretty dang special herself and a sure nuff cow dog.. I'd sure think you got a good shot with em. Great thing about all that, if they make it, they got what it takes to reproduce it down the road with consistancy, they aint scatter bred and it isn't a accident they are what they are.

JDT - I sure wish Ben and you guys luck with those pups, good decision on you guys part in my opinion.
