    Newbie saying hello! (pics)

    Looks like a great board - I'm sure to find lots of good advice and gorgeous photos of everyone's wonderful dogs/cats/younameit!

    We recently adopted a now 5-month-old tri collie pup from a local rescue - she was the only tri from a litter of sables (both parents were collies, evidently) and was the last one to be adopted. Guess she was waiting for us to find her! We also have an 8-month-old torti kitty we adopted from a nearby shelter. These two fur babies join our five scrumptious kids and it's a busy, fun household.

    We just had our pup, Bijou, spayed yesterday, so today is all about recuperation. We've been doing our best to housetrain her and teach her some manners and thankfully, seem to be making some progress! Bijou loves taking us for walks (we're still training her to mind the leash) and adores flopping around in the snow. She's also teething like mad these days so is in an enormous chewing frenzy. You can imagine how many Kong toys litter our house! Our kitty, Bonnie, is a typical cat, somewhat mysterious and snobby at times but also affectionate and goofy.

    Looking forward to doing more reading and learning!

    Welcome! Bijou is just adorable. Love the name, too. And of course your kitty is cute, too. We will look forward to more pics. I've never seen a tri collie before. Wish I could be there to cuddle with her because she is just too cute.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Awww, hello, Bijou! She's still got that little rat-tail! It's funny that we can forget that it takes a while for the full fluffitude to develop on the tail! She's a beauty.

    And hello Bonnie, you are a beauty as well!
