Garyv Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 (edited) Well after the death a few weeks back of my fishing buddy Amy, my dog, I wasn't sure about getting another friend. Found I missed the companionship and work of a dog ( as always happens ) so on Tuesday evening, while all the storms rage around Southwestern Ontario, we drove the hour and a half to Mitchell to see Dixie a 7 Mo. old border collie......She left her old home with us in my truck shortly after we got there. I'm hoping to bond with her over the next few weeks and hopefull will have her for years and years. You never can replace a dog you loose but can surely give the love to another. Here are a few pictures. Edited July 24, 2008 by Garyv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Clemens Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Good deal Gary. I think Ruth was telling me about Amy while we were together up at Lakair. Sorry to hear about your loss as I too just went through it. Gotta get her trained for those fishing outtings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beans Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 How's your throwing arm my friend ? She has that "play fetch" look about her... Here's to many years of friendship... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerGuy Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Cute dog! Congrats! Hope she turns out to be a good girl for ya. Our previous dog was a border collie cross.. She lived to 22 years and I still feel she wasn't around long enough Our 4-legged friends just don't stick around long enough that's for sure!

danc Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Gary. Three years ago I adopted a 7 month old female Border. She is my best friend now. A Border Collies intelligence will simply amaze you. You don't have to teach them how to do things, because they understand English. I'll venture to say that if you have this dog for several years, and for some reason you decide to get another dog, it will be another Border. Have fun with her Gary.
