Is it good or bad to be like a Border collie?<br /><br />Well, Border Collies are the smartest of all dogs, eager to please and good at learning. They are task oriented and NEED a job to do. Very high energy and sometimes so focused on the job at hand that they don't see anything else... all in all, terrific creatures -- if you can keep up with them. So, is that you?<br /><br />It's going to take me a while to get around to visit.

I'll fight as long as they fight, but when that 'something' changes in their eyes then it's time. Bless you (and I'm sure you've been blessed) for taking in Molly when it was needed. I know that had to be a relief for her former caretaker. I can imagine how different it is around your place going from six to three in such a short time. It gets doubly hard when you have an 'elderly' crew. Take care.<br />Tammy<br />(p.s. I marveled to see Eddie & Mrs. Susie in the same picture!
