Coolie+Koolies=Lots of Fetch & Lots of Merle

[Linds]

So, I recently found out a friend of mine on FB with a Coolie lives super close so she drove down for a day at the dog park. It was supposed to rain but we lucked out and had a really nice day, the light kept changing which was a pain but it was really nice out, loved Rue (the Coolie) and her owner.

Pretty much it was Rue and Traveler staring at us for the ball and Didgie staring at Traveler waiting for us to throw the ball so she could fetch Traveler.

So here is the one and only picture I got of all three of them. Didgie says stays at the dog parks aren't for puppies.

"Move Traveler. Just move."

Whoa!

Rue is absolutely gorgeous! Where did she come from?

I love that the expression in Rue's eyes and Traveler's eyes are identical! I sort of wish that I had waited and gotten a Koolie now...(don't tell Limit that! But but the intensity is so crazy focused on you).

Didgie is no longer a puppy, she is all growed up. At least she looks so in the pics. I feel that this breed, and the Kelpie, looks mature way faster than most other breeds. Kastle did not look put together for a lot longer after 4 months old!

Limits a boy, give him time! Traveler didn't start any of that crazy intense focus until he was a good year old. He was always focused on me but not with that fun seriousness. Boys take awhile to mature I think and I'm pretty sure once Limit really turns on and puts his laser focus to you it will be amazing.

Rue is from Yatahea Coolies in Texas.

And I agree, Didgie looks so grown up in her body right now, it's crazy to me. But at the same time she has this itty bitty puppy head going on.

Eeeeep she is gorgeous! And I love her name! Omg Didgie looks so biiiig! Her and Traveler are such amazingly beautiful dogs. Koolies and Coolies are awesome. What's the drive like and energy level compared to a BC, do you know?

Didgie and Traveler were almost Roo's so I'm completely in love with that na,e.

Probably pretty comparable to a BC. Though I think they tend to be more "up" than borders and louder but overall I do believe the energy level and drive are very similar.

Rue is pretty! Her ear-set is really wide. Mammoth does that sometimes but only when he's thinking really hard about Important Things.

I am partial to Trav and Didgie though <3 She is looking so grown up...and she's going to have nice wide shoulders. And Traveler is just full of handsome (as per usual!)

Gorgeous pictures! I love that shot of Rue stretched out - she's a beautiful dog!

I'm really curious what would happen if we put Mu and Didgie and a tennis ball together - Mu does that same stalker eye to Tipper when we have them both out lol.

Kim, too. I think if we threw a ball for the three of them at once they'd all stare at one another, waiting for someone to make a move so the other two could chase lol.

Love the merle!! Gorgeous shots as always. Also, Trav's shoulder muscles in that last pic are ridiculous.
