Daphne's puppies are 7 weeks old today and we have our local families coming out to meet the litter with pups being allocated over the next few days.
Pups in this litter range from Medium to big Standards (some grandparent genetics bringing the size down in a couple of puppies)

We are still looking for 2 families who are ready now (go home date 3rd January) to welcome a pup into their home.

Local interested families are welcome to join our meet and greet this morning between 10-12 at Plainland.

January 2025 Planned Honeymoon - Elvis & Billie

I have selected Elvis for Bille because their characteristics and temperaments complement each other well. Most importantly, Elvis represents a complete outcross in terms of pedigree, which means that their genetic combination will lead to healthier puppies. This approach helps us avoid line breeding, which can increase the risk of genetic diseases due to the duplication of genes.

This mating reflects the commitment to breed not just pretty puppies but also healthy puppies. The COI (coefficient of inbreeding) for this mating is 0.7%, both parents have been hip scored well lower than the breed average, clear DNA, free of elbow dysplasia and hold annual heart clearance certificates.

The pups from this mating are likely caramel, red, golds, straight coat medium sized, low shed light density coats.

Daphne's pups are 5 weeks old today. They have now moved to our dog room where they have access to the outside, consistently use their grass mats for pooping 🙏 and now eating solids.
Time certainly flies by when I'm busy caring for this lot. Puppy baths tomorrow and some outside play before that rain returns.

Mindys Puppet Update

Pups had a big weekend starting with a grooming session, warm bath and towel dry before meeting families, at our puppy meet and great day. Thank you to all our local families that were able to come out, a fantastic socialisation experience for the pups and chance for our families to ask questions.

Next up Vet checks and Allocations.

Allocations are done in order as follows:

1) Breeder Pick
2) Potential Therapy placement dogs
3) Then household dynamics (ie young children)

Once I have these established, I work through applications and do my best to match families wish list to puppies.

All puppies are caramel (bbee) albeit of varying shades, all puppies have a straight fleece coat, liver noses and light eyes. Both parents have FULL health testing (Hips, elbows, DNA, heart).

I am proud to be with a breed Society that:

- prioritises health over profits,
- educates new breeders why COI matters, and
- provides tools for breeders to make informed decisions

When buying from an ACS Breeders you can be assured the parents health tests are completed and scored from reputable sources, fall within the parameters set out in the ACS Standards and No inbreeding or underage breeding is permitted.

The Australian Cobberdog Society is committed to preserving the breed's long-term future, implementing several evidence-based strategies to improve health in the current ACD population.

One of our primary objectives is to reduce the coefficient of inbreeding (COI) in future generations by implementing restrictions on inbreeding practices and equipping breeders with the necessary tools and roadmaps established by the ACS to achieve this. This includes a pedigree and health database for our breeders with inbuilt COI calculations and hypothetical mating functions.

The coefficient of inbreeding (COI) is a scientific measure that assesses the risk associated with inbreeding within a population or individual. A high COI indicates a greater likelihood of adverse genetic effects, including compromised health, reduced litter viability, and a decreased lifespan.

The Institute of Canine Biology states that a coefficient of inbreeding (COI):
• below 5% is optimal for health.
• levels between 5% and 10% can lead to moderate negative impacts on the offspring.
• levels exceeding 10% can result in substantial adverse effects, not only diminishing the quality of the offspring but also harming the breed.

(COI FAQS: Understanding the Coefficient of Inbreeding - The Institute of Canine Biology)

COI of 12.5% corresponds to a mating between half siblings or, a grandparent and a grandchild.
COI of 25% is indicative of a mating between a parent and child, or between full siblings.

Below you will see our 4 year plan in COI reduction.

Thank you everyone who enquired about our beautiful girls Bronte and Raven they have now found their guardian homes.

I also have opportunities coming up in the next few months for
- Standard sized female (black or brown likely)
- Medium female (red or caramel likely)
- Medium to Small medium female (blonde to caramel likely)

Please see our website for further information

Patty is 10 weeks old has had his first vaccinations (next due in 3 weeks) passed his vet check, will get another before he leaves if he needs to fly. He has a lovely sunny personality and sinks right in for cuddles. You can apply for Patty through our RightPaw page or contact me direct for more information or to find out about our payment plans.
