Will and Emma, our border collies

This is the story of our border collies, Will and Emma. The story began at ten weeks of age, shortly after we brought our puppies home. Now, almost two years later, we have all settled into a good routine, one which keeps me busy trying to make sure they get enough exercise and I get my work done. This will keep you up to date with what fun we have with them, new things they are learning and the challenges that we have in trying to balance all our activities and theirs, to keep us all happy.

Will and Emma, 5 and a half months

A cold spring day and I wasn't in the mood to spend much time outside with the puppies this afternoon, so I got out my tripod and put my long lens on my camera to try a few puppy portraits. I thought it was about time to try something a little different than the usual snapshots of the two pups. So here's a few of the 'portraits' that I thought were good. I set them up on the wicker couch in the sun room, and the wall to wall windows let in a nice soft light from the overcast day. They didn't seem to mind sitting there, at least for a little while.
