I think there are some other Borderstaffy threads that I've posted about my BS.
I did want to extend an offer to meet my BS since we both live in Oakland!
She has just started competing in USDAA agility (We train with Sharon at Frielance) and she'll be debuting in flyball next month...
The AKC and UKC standards are 14-16" tall for SBTs.
For BCs it gets complicated b/c of the whole ABCA/AKC split but **** some folks are breeding tiny little BCs. Because if you see one in USDAA 18s - they had to wicket under 17.5 inches tall.

I've been using a diva cup for, gosh, over 4 years now.
Easy to put in and remove.

I have a total freak dog who doesn't travel and since we travel to compete...
He has 2 people he adores. Currently, one of them just stays at our house since she is in a shared housing situation. She's not super dog savvy but she totally follows rules and believes me when I say things like...
