Hello fellow Aussie OES folk,can anyone help

with our search.We have attempted to find an adult female OES that needs rehoming but none have shown up,which is good for the breed,sad for us.We now want to find an OES puppy and have discovered its not a matter of going off with your money clasped in your hand and buying one.
A helpful member here has told me to submit a history of our OES ownership record to the various OES Clubs and I will do this,but just wonder if its worth asking here for any Aussie breeders to keep us in mind and add us to their list of people wishing to buy a female pet quality pup .
I bought my first OES pup at 15 and have owned 5 in all,and fostered one for 3 years.I have had 2 at one time once,no big deal to you breeders with a number I know,but it was a big deal for us.
I am now 52,a stay at home mum of 2 teens,a boy 15 and a girl 14,I have always allowed the sheepdogs to live inside but have dog doors,We have never shown or bred so obviously nobody is going to sell us a top notch pup to be kept as a pet only and be speyed,therefore we are hoping somewhere a pet quality female pup will show up.We are happy to pay to have her flown to us and collect her from Maroochydore Airport.(Qld)
We have a fully fenced yard just up from the broadwater and walk along there twice a day,do beachy stuff,dont travel or go away overnight unless we can take our dog/s,only want a permanent dog,not fostering again as I hated giving that one back to its owners,we would be good and happy owners.We have been sheepdogless for 2 whole years,had we realised how hard it is we would have started this search well before now.
Please keep us in mind and tell your friends.Once I work out how to,I shall post some pics of my OES we have had over the years.
Thanks for your time,I hope I havent mucked up the board by posting in the wrong place!Please feel free to pm me.Thanks Lyn

I want to Thank everyone who has pm'ed me with tips and leads to looking for a puppy.Its been very helpful and I hope one day soon I can show off my new OES.No solid leads anywhere yet but so much help,I am encouraged!We move house this week back to our "real home",our cottage by the sea,so wont be online much and will have to wait until good old Telstra link us up with the internet in our cottage but I shall try to get a turn at the local library computer in the mean time.We moved here to the big smoke 2 years ago to be near my mum who was put into a nursing home after a hip replacement surgery left her unable to stand or walk,and my dad needed us to look after him,she died in May and he wants to go into a retirement home maybe,or buy a small place in the city,so our obligations are over and we are going home,I will be back asap,best wishes,Thanks all,Lyn
