Garbo Talks

Birthday Girl

It's my second Birthday and the sun is shining. It got light at 05:00 this morning with the birds singing and squirrels cavorting around the garden (followed very closely by a happy bouncing Zack!). Mum made me a special breakfast with gravy and took us to the beach for a quick romp in the sea before she had to go to work. What a treat, we normally only get to the beach on weekends. I'm looking froward to being two because things seem to be getting easier to cope with as I think I am wiser each year.

I sprained my toe!

A sore toe is worse than a sore tail, a sore head a sore just about anything when you are a Border Collie! When Mum took me to the vet because I woke up crying (like a baby whale she said!) and unable to put my back paw down, she said to the vet "I don't know how she did it" and the vet took one skew look at me and little Zack (who was squirming at my side) and pointed at us and said "that's how!". And she was right - we played with wild uninhibited abandon the night before and now that Zack is bigger and faster I really have my work cut out to outwit and outplay him! Anyway now I am mad because there is a big bandage stopping me from spreading my toes and I just want to bite my whole leg off and be rid of it!

Happy Birthday Little Brother

It is Zack's Birthday - lots of reason to celebrate! I can hardly remember what it was like before Zack came into our home. Mum played lots with me and I did like having all of her attention on me because I'm a Border Collie of course and we like to have an exclusive and obsessive relationship with our owners BUT I have to admit that with Zack around we just have so much crazy fun and laughter. He is non stop entertainment in a sort of super cute Border Collie-ish package. I hope that we can make his Birthday fun, fun, fun and I promise not to pull the hair on his cheeks just for today!
