"Reese"    Blue Merle Tri female, born December 30, 2005
Her Eyes are CERF NORMAL on 02-14-06

Red-Dawn border collie puppies are individually handled and trained each day. They are played with, handled, socialized, crate trained and potty trained. Stimulating their mind at a young age helps ensure our puppies grow up to be very well rounded adults. Starting at 6 weeks old we spend time each day documenting each pup's development. You'll see the below Temperament Test scores for "Reese" showing her individual personality.

Our pups are Temperament tested at 6 weeks as recommended by the authorities. Using the results ensures you pick a border collie pup with the right temperament for you. Volhard Temperament Test Scores (see this link to read the test & interpret the scores): This puppy was tested on February 15, 2006.
