[Daisy and Delilah]

Welcome to PT, Zack!! Congratulations Robin!! Zack seems to be just what the doctor ordered.

Good job to all you PT'ers that kept quiet

Zack is very handsome. I love his long nosie. It's made for kisses

Zack is a handsome dude! Welcome to a new Pet Talk home, boy! Just ignore that Katie - she gets a little uppity now and then, but we love her anyway, as I am sure you will!

Well, this is the biggest surprise ever. This picture of you and Zack is precious, especially with Katie in the background keeping her eye on things. He is certainly going to represent your new and improved life. Having been someone who previously always had *girls*, I hope you too will have the most pleasant surprise of the loving ways of a boy dog.

Now that you have surprised us to such a degree, how about letting us in on (as they would say) the back story.

Congratulations for your new addition

Hi Robin!

As I said thru IM, Welcome to the Collie Club! I'm loving all the pictures. He is so adorable. Is that a kissable nose or what?


Ah, I see another 70Lb lap dog.

Oz says this is the best seat in the house. I left him at the vet one day for some tests and apparently they let him hang out in the back, loose, with them all day. The vet tech mentioned that while she was working at her desk, he was sprawled across her lap.

On the nose incident with Katie, Oz says he's quite sure she didn't mean it. That big ole Collie schnoze just can't help but getting in the way. At least that's what Idgie the Jack Russell told him the couple of times she nailed him there.

Looks like Zack does really well with the snow. I always wondered if those lil' nekkid barbie legs and feet would do okay.

You're gonna have to keep sharing lots of pictures and stories. I'm interested to know how similar he is to Oz and Gull. See if the things I equate to being a Collie thang, really are.

Oh.. rough or smooth they love the snow! Up until 2yrs ago, I lived in Ohio, so Zack has been in the snow before, and loves it! Actually my dogs love to roll around and play in the snow... kinda miss not having snow to often down here in north carolina.... the dogs sure loved it! Some day I'll live where its colder and gets more snow.. not sure if it'll be back in Ohio or not.. but it'll be some place with snow!

Here is one of my favorite pics of my rough blue girl in the snow one winter in Ohio:


This is Misty (Angie daughter from her first litter) in the snow going crazy!


Here is Ben and Pennie. Ben lives with my mom in Ohio... this was taken when I still lived up there. Pennie lives in PA. Boy do I MISS the snow!!.. one day... one day..


Ben running






Sorry Robin, now I'm kinda taking over your thread with pictures.. but they are all Zack family atleast LOL

Here are pictures my mom just sent a week or ago of Ben (smooth) and Pete, her rough tri male she got from me when I was up in Ohio after Christmas. Feb 2007 my first Collie, Laddie had to be put down... he was an 85lb rough tri male. When I moved to NC I left him with my mom because he was just to old to move. He lived 1 more year to the date that I moved down here and had to be put down, his tired old body just wore out. He was 12 1/2 yrs old. So since Ben was all alone for almost a year and seemed like he needed a friend I took Pete to Ohio with me... Pete is a rough tri male (Zack son BTW.. Lucy's brother) who needed a loving pet home.... and so I took him to see how he would work for my mom.. and it has turned out beautifuly.. here are pics of Ben and Pete together.

No need for sorries! I'm loving it!! So many gorgeous collies. Wow, Pete and Ben are so handsome. I'm so glad you posted pictures. What about Jethro do you have any more of him? I can't remember if you still have him at home or if he found a home. I should have grabbed him up also..lol. I want them all.

Zack is home and doing well!
