In February, I got my first dog - a mismarked black-tri Aussie puppy that I've named Pixel. You may recognize her at the Daily Puppy from Friday, March 16th.
I know some of you may be thinking, "Your first dog - and you got an Aussie! GOOD LUCK." I do know what I've gotten myself in to. I've wanted my own dog since I was 7 years old. The movie Babe was just released and I was mesmerized by the beauty and sheer awesomeness of those border collies. My whole life I begged my parents for one, but I would always get the same response, "When you grow up, you can have as many dogs as you want."
Well guess what? I'm all grown up, and I wanted one. Although Pixel lacks the ability to communicate with livestock, she's absolutely perfect.
Pixel is now 4 months old, and my very best buddy. When I'm not at work, she is by my side 24/7. She's well mannered most of the time (she is still very much a puppy!), but we're figuring things out together, and one step at a time.
I'm excited to join the community here, and hope to learn a lot and make some new friends!
