Beautiful pack! I can see the lab in Blondie (it is clearly in her eyes). :apple: Am I correct in thinking that she is of the famous Buff Orpington lines?
Your pictures made me so happy! I've a sable shepherd and a blue heeler too, admittedly your dogs are better looking. Do you professionally breed heelers?
Nope we don't have the time or want to professionally breed them. Our heelers aren't registered even though they're from akc lines. We let them have two litters, 1 set of 7 pups and then the lone ranger in the last, for some friends who loved Mav and Gypsy. Gypsy is getting fixed in the next few weeks I think.

Right, he weighed 64lbs on March 28th when we had his vet checkup. My guess is close to 73, but I don't have the necessary resources to weigh him at home
I'm hoping he doesn't reach the triple digits, but it's not looking good so far lol
One of the things I love most about him, besides his rich sable and lovey-dovey-ness, is his monstrous bark that more than matches his size. It's soul-rattling deep
Bit of a comparison, here's Apsel just around 8 weeks old...
He loved to try to climb my legs back then, looked just like a fuzzy black bear when he did, hence my forum name(Although Bear is also my nickname from my parents)
Thanks
8 months in these pics, I haven't had him weighed lately, he's large, I'm guessing close to 75-80. I think he'll pass 100 once he's full grown like his sire.
I'll try to measure height this evening.
Thanks!
We just got back from a week long vacation and I was surprised to see his coat had changed colors again. When we left he was in a pretty dark phase, and he transitioned into a drastically lighter phase over the week. The photos here don't really do it justice, but you can kind of see the lightness in the last attached photo.
Apsel will be 1 full year old tomorrow evening, and I figured it would be nice to add a couple photos from the past few days. He's still a big baby in a bunch of ways, but he's growing up fast.
His nose still consistently has a dirt ring...
