A new sheepdog puppy! Meet Peppa (with photos)

Peppa came to us on Thursday 30th May. She's a purebred Border Collie girl that is bred from working lines.

A little sweety by nature, she's fitting in beautifully with the family and even had a go at chasing one of the stray ewes today.

When the ewe ran off, Peppa took off in hot pursuit. The ewe, in her wisdom, tried to run through the fence to get away from this little puppy. Whilst I untangled the ewe, my husband picked up the pup, but not before she gave the ewe a really good telling off!

Even when I had freed the ewe, and had sent her in the direction of the other mob of sheep, Peppa voiced her displeasure at being held (or was it because she caught the ewe and I was letting it go) and proceeded to complain whilst in the arms of my husband.

On the way back up to the house, little Peppa grew another 2 inches taller she was that proud of herself! Her tail was up and wagging, her head held high and she was one happy, and a little tired, little puppy.
