Hi all, I'm Chris. New to this place, though I'm an oldies Waja user if anyone knows me from over there. Been cruising around, looking at pups for sale - I'm a Border collie fan and want my first to be a Border, but I've still not sorted out the deal with training and TP so I'm not rushing into anything ;)
One thing I can't find after reading through the guides - when does a puppy picture become an adult? This is one dog I'm considering, but will it look the same as an adult? Why does one of the nine month olds I'm looking at show adult image yet this 22 month old not?

Hi guys. I've quiet enjoyed my first few days, I'm getting quite attached to my dogs, definitely going to be focusing on Border collies :)

I brought two last night, yup, pretty happy with them both :) <br /> <br /> Sorry, this was meant to be a intro thread, just through I'd throw in a question here. <br /> <br /> I'll definitely be breeding Gracie, I am currently off to the pup predictor to see if Rani and Riley would produce nice pups ;)

Welcome to Alacrity, Chris. :) I see that you've found some lovely Border Collies! I particularly like Rani. My first dog here was actually a Border Collie as well. She still has a spot of honor in my kennel. ^^ Are you thinking of getting into breeding Border Collies, or are you still exploring your options?<br /> <br /> Ravy is right, you'll get a much faster response if you use the Issue Hub to ask questions. :) That's what our Newbie Helpers are here for!

Dogs grow into their adult images at 4 months old c: Dogs older than that who are still displaying their puppy images just haven't had their images refreshed in a while, and therefore haven't had the image be replaced. The dog that you're considering seems to have its adult image to me, although a way to find out what the dog will look like (if it has its markings unhidden) is to just plug those into the Custom Tool (Help Alacrity > Custom Tool) c:<br /> <br /> In the future, please use the Issue Hub (Help Alacrity > Issue Hub) to ask questions, so our team of Newbie Helpers can go ahead and answer that (a notice flashes on our pages) without constantly checking the forums xD<br /> <br /> That being said, hai. I'm Ravyn. Pleased to meet you C:
