Kirk is home!! *new retrieving video added*

[Kater]

We brought Kirk home about 1pm yesterday. His breeder was sad to see him go so we made a quick departure. He is being so good - an absolute dream. Housebreaking has been a breeze so far! The only thing that has scared him was the garbage truck. I need to figure out how to better deal with that tomorrow.

Yesterday's vet check up was uneventful. He weighed in at 10 lbs. 14 oz. (He will be 9 weeks old Saturday.) He loved meeting everyone at the clinic and got lots of treats. He will go back next week for his booster vax.

I haven't taken many good pictures yet. I forgot how hard it is to photograph moving puppies! Anyway, I will share the pictures I have taken.







Cute sleeping positions...







More coming...

Loooove that spotty belly!!




Eating breakfast out of his kongs...


Pouncing on a toy...


I will have to get some outdoor shots. I think I may try to post a video too. See this thread for more pics later.

He is already attaching himself lovingly to my Dad and loves to sleep under his chair at his desk. My Dad will probably have to get his second round of chemo this week and since Kirk came home conversation has shifted to happier things and my father's attitude has improved markedly. I am so thankful for this angel with fur.

I just want to kiss that little guy!! He's so cute! Congrats on getting him. We'll look forward to all the pics you can give us

Kirk also met Tigger last night. Tigger is a 3 y/o BC and his Mommy is a close family friend.
Tigger was soooo good with Kirkie. In fact, he seemed to be intimidated by him!! We had to give poor Tigger a break once Kirk started looking for milk though...LOL! Hopefully they will become fast friends.

This is Tigger:

I'm sorry to hear about your dad, but, glad that Kirk is in your lives, now! He may be just what the doctor ordered, eh? He's a beautiful puppy! And, Tigger is so handsome!

Oooooooh he's SO CUTE! I love the first pic! Welcome home Kirk! I remember Tigger, such a handsome boy, love those blue eyes. I bet they will have so much fun together as Kirk grows up.

Oh my goodness, I think he has gotten even cuter in the past two weeks. Welcome home, Kirk. You are undoubtedly one of the cutest bundles of fluff I have ever seen.

What breed is he?? He is so adorable.

He is a border collie.

oh my gosh!!! Kirk is ADORABLE!!! he looks so much bigger than he did juts a few weeks ago.

[Muddy4paws]

They are both gorgeous!!

Just a quick tip, If hes scared of the garbage truck dont fuss over him too much just act normal because if he sees you worrying about him he will be worried because you are and associate mum being worried with the garbage truck so it will mostly be something he will stay scared of, just reasure him calmly that hes a good boy and give him a treat when its gone for a while and it will soon stop being a problem! If that makes sense?
