Here's one up for adoption in MN. Probably too slow...that's why it's in the shelter... :nono:

Wow, she looks very pit bullish to me but pictures are always deceiving

I wonder what her history is? Honestly if Heidi even heard me talking about getting another dog she would have me put down

She came through on a flyball list...the poster didn't know anything about her, except was was in her bio.

Who knows...I'll post anymore info that I get.

I had a potential adopter contact me last year about a foster of mine (who I thought was possibly a border collie/pit bull mix and looking to put in a sport home)...she actually had a bunch of mini aussie/sbt mixes who were specifically bred for flyball. Gawd were they adorable, and i feel guilty saying that :oops:

have you heard of this mix yet? The "Border Stack" - :rolleyes2:

Yup, up in the NY area, there are lots of mini Aussie-SBT mixes...that's more regional still, for some reason.

One of the judges in that region had a litter at the FnF tourney, I think it was.

The border stack has been around for a while too...

Wow, these people are just breeding crazy little machines. I imagine owning one of those borderstacks/borderstaffs or whatever must be a sport in itself.

I cannot imagine trying to puppy-proof a house for one of those little demons, LOL.

Or your windows. Or your fence. Or your calfs (BC nipping)...

We have a litter or Ridgebacks at school (one of the techs has a lure-coursing + agility champion, bred her to famous sire apparently) and while they are getting socialized a whole lot (tons of people around!) I am glad I have a nearly-7 years old girl.
