Thanks y'all! The 3 Amigos send Collie Nose Nudges and Terrier Tail Wags to everybody!

I've been laughing at his ears too. I kind of hope they straighten out though. But if they don't, they don't. Since he's not a show dog, I just don't see myself spending anytime trying to tape them.

Hi Captain!

I have to keep reminding myself, "do not compare him to Maddie", "do not compare him to Maddie", which has been a lil' bit hard, because he has some Maddie-esque qualities about him. One of which is he does the frog dog. I told my friend if he starts yodeling, I'm gonna be convinced he's Maddie reincarnated.

Hola Gustergirl!

Totally understand the tradition thing. I say "I love you, Maddie" every morning, just on case her spirit can hear me.

On the signature, there was somebody else on here who had one like that, which is where the idea came from. Idgie's mom made the signature for me after Maddie died. She also made similar ones for Oz and Murph, that I've had posted before too. I'll pass on your comments too her.

hey there binka and dappledoxie!

Well I gotta say so far, Gully is turning out to be as easily trained as Oz. But he seems to be more energetic than Oz was at this age. So if you get a Collie, be ready for constant motion and keeping them exercised. I keep thanking Oz everyday for helping me tire him out.
