Oz's Doppleganger....

[GoldenRetrLuver]

What a cutie! I'm sure Oz would love to have a big sister...*hint, hint* lol. I would take her in a second if I could, but I have people called parents...but, Samantha would go great with my 2. Hmmm....*scemes up a way to convnce parents*...hehe.

Samantha looks like a very sweet girl. It was little Sherry, the girl that Pam posted, that made my heart melt though. Here's to praying all Samantha, Sherry, and Luke find homes with someone who loves them as much as I know you two would.

Par, it is very gentlemanly of you to reply personally to everyone. I know what you mean about carrying manners from one board to another. At the smgboard there are very strict rules about no flaming, and always staying on topic. I find it very easy to adjust to the relative freedom on this board.

But I will mention this, even though it is off topic - the title of this thread gave me a little happy. Just the words "Oz" and "Doppelgang[land]" together. ~Chuckles happily to self~.

Hmm...Par where are you located? I love Collies, and you say she would be great at agility? I'm looking for an agility dog. I'm in Arizona, also.

hi again Pam!

Sherry and Luke are adorable! I had a poodle mix, when I
was a kid that was just the best dog. Before I got Oz, a
standard poodle was one of the dogs I was looking at.
Loved the personality, but the extensive grooming scared
me off.

hi there GoldenRetrLuver!

Sister???? I was thinking girlfriend. Aw one too many viewings
of Lady and the Tramp I'm sure.

hi zanzanfergie!

Good catch! My choice of words for the title was deliberate.
I've been a Buffy and Angel fan, since Xena went off the air.
I just bought Buffy's 4th Season DVD set, which has one of
my all time favorite episodes, "Hush".

Officially Oz is named after Wizard of Oz, but I had a
momentary thought of him also being named after such
a cool character from Buffy too. Love that dry wit of his.

Par...

PS. that should be ladylike.

hola Foam!

I'm actually from Texas, but if you were really interested they
might be able to work something out with a transport.

In their writeup of Sam, they really don't say anything about
agility, but I came away with an impression that she's got an
exhuberant, playful and active personality. Also, that she's food
and people motivated. All wonderful traits for agility. Here's
the URL for their site.

Collie Rescue

You might want to check out what they say about her and
if you're still interested get in contact with her foster mom.
Talking to her one on one, you could get a more detailed
evaluation about Sam.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, Sam is HeartWorm Positive,
so she won't be leaving foster care until that's cured. Also,
I'm not sure what long term effects that has on health, whether
that could be a hindrance for agility. So that would be another
thing to ask about.

Oh gosh! I'm so sorry! Ladylike I'm sure. Forgive me, but it's so easy to be misled by usernames. I am constantly making mistakes with those kind of things.

It's great to see another Buffyite around the board. Hush is one of my favourite episodes too, along with "Once More With Feeling," "Becoming Parts 1 and II," "Intervention," "The Gift," and "Chosen." I'm working on my DVD collection too - only in Australia we're a little ahead in terms of release dates (for once!). Season 7 should be out by the end of the year, so I am saving up for that at the moment.

Oz is one of my most beloved characters too. Actually, I have a quote from him in my signature at the moment, did you notice? He makes me laugh, because he's so short, and also cool without knowing it. "Is it because you always tend to express yourself in short, non-committal answers?" "Could be."
He's such a funny little Zen man.
