Toolalla

TOOLALLA C/KOOLIES

This kennel is located in Australia and is actually owned by
Richmond Hough, although; Tabitha Parker reports that it's her
kennel and her dogs. Ms. Parker does not own any Coolies, but her
husband/paramour does own a Beagle.

The reason for this page is to explain some of the things that Ms.
Parker has been posting on her dog forum. We have nothing to hide,
and would like the opportunity for folks to hear our side of the story.
We have no idea why she has chosen us to berate. I understand, from
other Coolie owners, that I am not the only Coolie owner/breeder that
she has focused in on and verbally attacked.

I am sure that as soon as she reads this - this page, along with several
of my pictures, and old posts that she has changed to read as she
wants, will end up on her forum as the main point of discussion.

You will find on her forum that:

She says -- Zoo is a German Shepherd. This is
hilarious, because it's so far from the truth. I can only
assume she says this because she is not familiar with
the GSD characteristics/behavior or coat color genetics
and is judging Zoo by color. Zoo is a saddle pattern
and is 35 pounds, soaking wet. She has impeccable
work ethics and is a proven producer of dogs that work
cattle. Her puppies are in demand because of this and
her planned next litter already has a waiting list.
Zoo was imported.
She says --Mac was over priced > and was never sold,
because he stayed here for training. She stated on her
forum that she thinks, he was never *actually* sold
that the entire thing was made up. Mac has been sold
to Ralph Martinez and now resides on a working cattle
ranch in Los Alamos, New Mexico. Ralph and I met at
the Groom feedlot and Thom Childress showed Mac on
feedlot cattle. Mac was actually underpriced at
$1500.00 according to the going rate of started cattle
dogs. I can only assume she is judging his price at
what her step-father asks for his dogs, which are
between $250.00 to $300.00, or FREE. Mac also has a
lifetime guarantee, and Ralph is invited to come back
to the feedlot at any time to work him, or for any 'fine
tuning' that he may have/need.
She says --Sophia, Tanner, Shake, Mac and Toy are
cross bred with Kelpies, because they are a solid color
(not merle). She says this, because Ms. Parker is
under the impression that the Coolie breed in an
entirely merle breed. This is genetically impossible.
Toolalla only breeds merle to merle and kills all of the
solid colored and double merle puppies. She reports
that Toolalla has not produced solid or double merles in
6 years; anyone familiar with merle to merle breeding
knows this is impossible.
She says --Oscar is substandard because he's a double
merle. Even though he has perfect hearing and perfect
vision, she finds fault with him. This is because,
again, she has no knowledge in genetics and has never
seen him in person. Oscar is a rough coat, therefore; he
will not sunburn as she reports on her forum. He has
dark pigment around his eyes, on his nose, anus and
sheath, therefore; not only will he not sunburn, there is
no chance of cancer. She shouts that he will produce
deaf and blind puppies. This is not correct, because
*if* he is used for stud, he will be bred only to solid
colored females. All of the puppies in the litter will be
merle/carrying non-merle. There will be no solids or
double merles in the litter. Since his color is due to
being homozygous merle, all puppies that he produces
will not be white factored, nor will they be homozygous
or double merles, therefore; there is NO chance of color
related deafness or blindness. And, because he isn't
white factored this drops the chances of color related
impairment to zero. Oscar has been started on sheep
and is showing natural ability, balance and desire.
Oscar is built and looks alot like Toolalla Frank,
which is a rough coat, black merle.
She says -- that *everyone* that has purchased a
Coolie from us is not satisfied. Interesting that she
knows and has contact numbers for every single
person that I've ever sold a dog to. I can and will
provide references upon request that will invalidate
this ridiculous statement.
Ms. Parker has taken many posts from her forum and
private email's that were authored by other people,
changed the wording to reflect negativity about our
dogs and then posted them on her forum. She has
removed the "edit" function from her forum so that
these posts can not therefore be edited by the original
authors. I'm sure that function will be resumed as
soon as she reads this. The majority of the members
have left and formed a more friendlier forum. And the
remainder of the members, some are actually really
Tabitha signed in as someone else.

We imported our Coolies in August of 2004 from the
Beretta Coolie Stud in Australia.

There has been some discussion on the Toolalla dog forum (Australian dog
forum) from Tabitha Parker stating that this is an unknown stud (kennel),
because she has never heard of them. I'm not familiar with Australia, but I
assume that she knows every single person in the entire country of Australia
by her comments. Either Australia is a small country, or Ms. Parker gets
around, alot.

Ms. Parker is absolutely, positively, obsessed with me, my breeding practices
and my dogs because every time I put a new picture on my website, she
pirates the picture, puts it on her forum and then proceeds to find anything
and everything wrong with that dog. I have to admit that this has given me
tons of free advertisement, for which I am grateful (thanks Tabitha). We
have made many new friends and customers because of her forum and her
continual obsession with our dogs.

We stand behind our dogs, 110%. All of our dogs are guaranteed for life.
We will replace any dog that fails to show working desire by the time the
dog is 18 months old, provided the dog was given the chance to work and
was not abused or neglected.
We invite anyone to visit with us and see our dogs.
Our dogs are working dogs, they don't lay around on silk pillows, they get
muddy, they go swimming, they roll in manure --- they are dogs,
well-adjusted, non-aggressive, happy, friendly dogs.
