Jordyalan 2011 Plans

Fri, 19 Aug 2011 22:50:00 GMT

Our plans for 2011 here at Jordyalan make this a very quiet year. We plan to have a final litter out of our Elsa with a gorgeous choc/white boy called Liam from Tambovale kennels. She is due to come into season any day now so fingers crossed we get a couple of successful matings and will have babies in November sometime :-) Cheers from Wanda and the Border Collie Gang at Jordyalan

"Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year"

For us dog lovers this is often a time to recognize just how much our pets mean to us and our families. We spoil them with doggy stockings full of goodies and maybe even a new blinged out collar or a comfy dog bed to open on Christmas morning!!.

For us here at Jordyalan, it means embracing the beautiful memories we create every day with our dogs and memorializing those we have lost.

*Seasons Greetings to you and your Family*

Website Upgrade

Sat, 03 Apr 2010 12:33:54 GMT

WoW! My last update was back in January where has that time gone!. I finally got around to doing some much needed updates & changes to our site. I've been going through my pages and checking for broken links etc. I also did some rearranging of my menus/pages & changed to a new beautiful site design!!. Our Elsa has had a season but we needed to give her a rest so that was three weeks of hell!. Our Bertie wouldn't eat & sooked & cryed & was just beside himself because he wasn't allowed to be with her!!. Elsa also broke her foot playing with her frisbee this March so has had to have it plastered & kept dry for the next 12 weeks!!. The beautiful Evie is just a total joy to own and we are so proud of the direction we have taken in our breeding program with it producing such a perfect litter of babies that she was born into in 2009.
Our Pet Photo of the Month Contest has also been a great hit, and if you haven't already entered please get your photo's in for the April contest running now!.
We are still planning to have a litter out of Elsa and with Bert later in the year,this is a repeat mating and we are looking forward to having babies back in the house again!!.
I hope that everyone has a "safe and happy Easter", but don't forget to keep the chocolate away from your doggies as it is very toxic to them :(

Jordyalan Newsletter January 2010

Happy New Year to all our members, and a warm welcome to those of you who joined us over the Christmas holiday period. This is the first newsletter of 2010, and if you're new to us you'll find we send these every few weeks, whenever we have some news to report. You may not yet have had a chance to look through all our website's pages, and we thought it might be helpful if we used this Newsletter to highlight a couple of them.

Probably the first important page that should be read is our Border Collie RoadTest. This beautiful breed that we totally adore also needs some serious researching, this should be done so that everyone is fully aware of all the good and the bad!. We try to cover it all on our Articles & Breed information pages.

The second page to read is the Testimonials that have been kindly sent to us from owners of some of our precious puppies.

Then thirdly you can VOTE for your favorite photo on our Pet Photo Contest page.

Our breeding plans this year will hopefully be that we have a successful mating between Bert & Elsa in July/August,making late September early October babies!.

Litter 2007 Reunion BBQ

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 10:38:34 GMT

~ Litter 2007 Reunion BBQ - 25/10/2009 ~

On Sunday 25th October 2009 we had a fantastic reunion BBQ for our puppies from the March 2007 Litter.

We had four dogs attend and all their humans came along to enjoy a day of playing together and eating a great BBQ lunch!!.
This is the second reunion organized for this litter that has been set up by the wonderful Olivia who is the owner of the adorable Bandit (Jordyalan Leonardo Dvinci).
Many frisbees and balls were thrown throughout the day and the dogs really wore themselves out!,
I am sure that they all slept very very well on that Sunday night.

Thanks to all who attended for such a memorable day!!

We are still waiting for Elsa to come into season and are looking forward to a successful mating with the adorable Bundy once she is ready. We are looking forward to having babies in the house again soon!!.
My husband Tony does all the hard work for the puppies as my disease does not allow me anymore to be as hands on as I would like. I get to do all the paperwork and have lots of cuddles and he does all the rest (I love him so much for wanting to help me still keep on breeding this wonderful breed)

~ Sheeba (Fly) ~

~ Jordyalan Cocos Fly ~

Dam - Berringama Wandas Coco (Coco) Sire - Braeloch Wedgewood Blue (Bert)

Bert & Coco had seven beautiful black/white babies on 23/09/2006. We named them Rex, Fly, Ferdy, Babe, Sweep, Arthur & Dutchess. All named from the characters of the motion picture BABE. Fly was adorable and turned into one of the loveliest dogs we have ever produced. She went to a wonderful family that had a small farm with lots for her to do every day!. I got the dreaded phone call telling me of the tragic death of our much loved girl Fly (Sheeba) on the 4th March 2009. Our Fly was killed in front of her property in a truck accident, she was apparently protecting her property from stray dogs that had been roaming around outside of the main gates for a few days. Her owner Peter blamed himself for not closing the main gates at night but Sheeba had never not once left the boundaries of her beloved property without her master being with her. So we say goodbye to our beautiful girl Fly and hold her in our hearts for all eternity.

~ Jordyalan's February News ~

Well the time has come for our babies to leave home!....
This litter has been such a joy to own, our little Liln, Lucy, Jadis, Miraz, Lamby and my adorable baby boy Aslan. On Saturday the 7th February four families will make the trip to our home to collect their bundles of joy!. We are taking the last two for a 5 hour drive on Sunday the 8th February to do a puppy pick-up at Cooma with their new families. It will be hard to say good-bye to them as I have fallen totally in love with them all (I do it every time!!). Our Elsa, Coco and Bert won't even blink an eyelid, as all they care about is getting their old routine (and toys!!) back!!. We have not made any firm plans yet about when we will have our next litter, but I do think we may take a little break and think about it again at the end of this year 2009 (it will be a choc on choc litter though).

~ Updated Site ~

We have updated our site with many photo's of our Litter 2008,
so stop by and get yourself a puppy fix here!!.

Puppy Update

Tue, 13 Jan 2009 13:27:17 GMT

Hello Doggy Friends!,

Well we have updated our site, so if you adore puppies and are in need of a puppy fix! then please visit the link below -

http://www.jordyalanbordercollies.com/litter2008.cfm

Our beautiful babies are just fantastic and growing like weeds!, they are now big kids outside and they love it!!. Where have the last four weeks gone???

They all have wonderful homes to go to but it is a bitter sweet moment for us when they leave home. This is because we love them so much and want to keep them all, but we know we just can't and therefore feel really blessed that they have beautiful families that are taking them into their homes. Some are going as family companions and some as agility kids, but one baby girl Liln is going to be a Dam at another breeders kennel in N.S.W. Keep checking our site for more new photo's and updates of these puppies as they grow!!.

November News

Our great news this month is that our Elsa is having babies!!, we have had confirmation by Ultrasound and the babies are due on December 16th 2008. See our litter 2008 page on our site for updates.

Introducing myself and my love of Dogs (Border Collies in particular....duh) and how I wish I could help every little fur face that needs us out there!.

My way to try and help is to provide the correct Border Collie breed information, and to help promote Responsible Dog Ownership for all, via my web sites listed below.

http://www.jordyalanbordercollies.com/

http://www.cafepress.com/Jordyalan

http://jordyalanbordercollies.gotop100.com/

http://www.freewebs.com/Jordyalan/

My sites also provide for me an opportunity to express my massive love of dogs, by being a great creative outlet for sharing Border Collie products & memorials to other dog lover's out there like me!!.

I not only provide information on our breed, but I also sell beautiful merchandise and hand painted products in both of my stores.

They include magnets, T-shirts, Cards, Window Clings, Sun catcher's and Caps, and all with the faces of our adorable Border Collies on them (great Xmas presents!!)

My Top100 Site List is also a great way to advertise for FREE. A wonderful place where all of my Doggy minded friends & Country/Prim Craft friends sites, can all be listed together in one place!!.

I help support the RSPCA as well as also promoting Dog Rescue as much as possible, for the Australia Border Collie Rescue Organization.

My web sites are guaranteed to give you hours of enjoyment, either reading the Border Collie information pages or browsing through our three huge pages of great links to friends!. We also have a new Plugboard page & Free links page that lets you advertise your site in return, for FREE!.
