Gab decided that she knew better than me and had her puppies under the farm lab building. Patiently we have waited to see their faces to announce the birth.
A couple of days ago they started to peak out from under the building. Within a day or two, Gab had moved all nine to the time tested “puppy place” under the steps to the front porch.
I think that there are 9 puppies: 6 girls and 3 boys.

The American Working Farm Collie Association is coming together to help the English Shepherds rescued in Montana. The Farm Collie group is sponsoring a Benefit Silent Auction with proceeds going to help the National English Shepherd Rescue (NESR). There is some really interesting articles up for bid on the website.
Please take a moment to visit the site. Perhaps you will find something you would like and all the proceeds are going to help care for the dogs in Montana. If you are not familiar with the situation in Montana
Two hundred English Shepherds were seized in Montana and the NESR is heavily involved in the physical and mental rehabilitation of these dogs till they can be placed in new homes. http://www.nesr.info/montana.htm
The silent auction will end February 21th.
