Dennis and I have been doing a lot of thinking about getting a new dog and researching the breeds. The house is just too lonely without a dog, especially without Spike. Today, we took the plunge and bought a Border Collie. Meet Flash, 6 mos. old. We took him for a walk this afternoon, on leash. He was very good and very curious. This evening we spent some time playing and some time resting. We're getting to know each other so we're all feeling a little tentative. Right now Flash is lying at our feet. He doesn't want to go outside unless we go with him, then he wants to come back with us in the house. This is going to be tricky getting him to sleep outside in his crate.
He ate my knitting needles.
