This is turning into such a great rookie season for Richard, Casey and Kelly! Thank you, Karen and Mark, for entrusting some of your pretty sled dogs to that great Brit. I suppose the ever-Brit "Border collie"...a.k.a. Scottish border collie... Bet may have had some sway in that. Richard, awesome job. It was an exciting and very happy time with you in the race as well. Even though Karen's team had to scratch she was still right there and very involved, as was the not so roving reporter, Bet (have you ever known a border collie to "rove" much on its own??? NAH.) I have always loved the "long haired herding breeds", have had Belgian Tervuren shepherds for 25 years now and used to "rescue" Aussies and BCs. And yes, Bet, there are some certain border collies who wear out their welcomes but of course it's just because not everyone understands how much they think and their need for activity and control...and waffles.

I would like to sponsor Kelly & have gone to the website to do so. Consider her spoken for.

Now I feel really bad because I did not know the sponsorship fee was more for Kelly than just the $250.00. I will sponsor another dog for that fee but cannot afford to do Kelly. Wish I could and am so sorry that I messed up. She is still available for sponsorship.
