Just to add to the exercise restrictions - pups are like babies - eat sleep and grow.  Good agility and obedience clubs don't let pups jump till they are 18 months anyway, so don't do it at home either. (Might even be KC regs) I too look forward to seeing photos of her and hope you have her a long and happy time.
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

Thanks to everyone for the congrats, we are very happy.  We will be very careful about her exercise.  We did a lot of research and you're right Doganjo - it is 18 months so she will just be doing her weekly socialisation classes as well as being in the garden.  She is still sleeping quite a lot and I just can't stop looking at her. She is a wonderful addition to the family.  Rosemary, you can see her anytime you want to - I'm always free for coffee - I even supply the cakes  ;D

Doganjo, could you cut paste and translate that advice into Collie-speak...

 Meg romps around like a mad thing, typically going sideways, back and forth at some speed.  Then she goes a bit lame through her shoulder!!  >:( >:(
I can see it happening, but if i try to restrict her she boils her brains!! Argh!!
