My parents

Honey asked me to play the parent game with her, where we has to tell about our real, dog parents and not our adoptive people pawrents.

So here goes…
My Mummy beed a blue merle like me, only smaller and shyer. I not remember her too much, I think we beed her first litter and so she gotted a bit fed up with us sometimes, but she teached us good about scary things. I lived in a house with some other shelties, and some whippets and pidgeons. Well, the pidgeons lived outside.

My Mummy beed called Thistle, or her show name be Meadow Park Blue Thistle at Elanmore. Which is where I get my Elanmore Blue flash from.
My Daddy be called Bumble, or ch. Myndoc on a Mission. My Mum and Dad were owned by different peoples but the lady what owned my Mum took ill and so My Mum stayed with my Daddy’s Pawrents whilst we puppies were born and little, that why we know more about my Daddy than my Mummy.

Mum says that my Dog Daddy had a personality very like I has, so I guess I takes after him. She said he came and say next to her on the sofa and was demanding chin and neck strokies with his paw, just like I does. Once he almost pushed me off her lap wanting attentions.

Here be my Daddy. Does you think I looks like him?


My Daddy be a champion show dog and his Mum beed very proud of him and showed Mum all his awards and some piccures of some of his other puppies. He also be half brother to a dog owned by a famous lady Doggy freestyler in this country, called Gypsy. She on the cover of a book Mum has too and Mum always say to me, looks she your Auntie. Cool huh?

Here be my Daddy having a grooming demonstration for my Mum. Yup, he was a traitor and helped her learn how to properly brush me. There some of his awards in the background.


Mum did not take many piccures of my parents and completely forgot to take one of my Mum, she was far too busy playing with puppies, and stroking shelties, and asking questions to take many.

Mum and old Daddy had gone specifically to look at me, but they was also considering two of my sisters who were tri-colours. But I was the boldest and most interested in playing so they liked me best, of course! I just knew as soon as we was brought out from our puppy crate and putted in Mum’s arms that she would be my Mum. I was not scared at all and played with some toys they had brought me. I even pulled old Daddy across the room by his finger.

Me and old Daddy.

First Mum snuggle

Which one be me?Those first piccures beed from when I was 5 and a big weeks old. When they comed Mum and Old Daddy left me with a guinea pig teddy which went in the puppy pen with us till they comed back so I would have something familiar that smelled of my Mum. You can see it a bit here.

On the car ride home I cried and beed sad and scared, Mum beed sitting in the back with me, so she gotted me out and I sat on her lap instead. When i got more sleepy she put me back in. It beed very hot so we stopped often to drink and walk on the back seats, My Dad’s pawrents said Mum and Old Daddy were the only ones so far that they hadn’t had to give water too as no one thought to bring it!

I not be ascared when I got to my new home, I looked round (there beed lots to see, like my rabbit siblings!), chewed on my nylabone and went sleepies in my crate. I had Pepe my cat bro then so I not beed alone.



Oh, and this the big pack of goodies we gotted from my breeder.


Well, Honey, I hope that enough about my parents for you!

I has to tag some more furbodies to play, you has to talk about your parents or wherever you comed from afore, and about your first day.
I will tag my beautiful Morgan.

  14. Hi Ludo,We loved reading your post…about your dog daddy and dog mommy and how your hoomans connected with you and brought you home with them!!My dad and mom went to a shop last week and there was this cute Sheltie girl there with a pretty face and sad eyes.. it reminded mom of you. It was like she was asking them to release her from the cage and bring her home. Dad was so tempted but honestly, there’s no way now they can cope with 3 dogs, so they went home with a heavy heart. Congrats on all your awards!

  19. Hi Ludo, you are super lucky to know your doggie mom and dad. I don’t know mine at all! I only know my mommy!!!You were super cute as a 5 week old pup!!Woofvelcro

  20. Oh, Ludo! I would be honored to go to the wedding with you. What a beautiful love letter. my heart is going pitter patter! I loved your baby story and will write mine soon. mum has these sore muscles on her back near her shoulder and it is making her typing arm numb, so she says she has to save her arm for work cause that is how we afford all the nice food and classes we take. So, I will get back to posting something soon. she went to the doctor and got some funny vibrating patches on her muscles and she says it feels a little better already. I think of you often. your gal, Morgan
