Arrival Story: We bought our house knowing we wanted a collie; she seems to have figured that out too! We got her from a breeder in S. Fla., who sent us pictures and stories about the litter she was a part of until they were old enough to leave their mom. When we went to pick out our pup, I sat down and she beat the other five pups out, and ran right up to me and jumped into my lap and got right in my face. When my husband sat down, she beat out the other pups to get to him. She chose us.
Bio: We have one of her half sisters also. Neri loves the winter time. The colder it is, the friskier she is.
Forums Motto: Live in the now!

I've Been On Dogster Since:
We moved northern to Virginia. It took us two days, stopping every two hours for breaks. We stopped over night at Bonnie the dog's house in North Carolina. Her people are very nice, and she has a pet baby too.
Bonnie was really obedient. I think Alpha started getting ideas. Nora didn't want to drink water on the trip, so Alpha had to keep reaching back and giving her ice chips as she drove. Silly Nora. Number One drove the moving van. Our little pack was together at every rest break.
Our collie car is now called Dog Force One. We had never been on a trip that long before. We did really well: no accidents, no fighting in the car, no body got off leash. Once we got to the new place Nora promptly threw up. What a silly dog.
alpha has not written in so long I think she forgot how. we are moving and they keep taking us out so other people can look at OUR house, very annoying. but nora has been back to accupupture, well that's what I call it. it makes her spunky. and she is better.
alpha looked up how old we are in some dog book, according to this book, nora & i are middle aged. bummer, I still feel like a pup!
Today Alpha told her sister who is a judge, that she thinks I am taking on-line law classes because I have learned to negotiate for biscuits to come in the house.
Her sister thought it was really funny. She is thinking of getting a dog one day too. Because she really liked us and thought we were sweet.
The weather is really nice down here now. We were outside, well, I was outside most of the time today. I love outside, especially when it is cool like now. Fall is a great time for collies.
