I always wanted to adopt. I never expected it to be a dog. ; ) I am the proud new mom to Buddy the Border Collie. We kept the name that the foster family used. The funny thing is how many strangers come up to him and say, "Hey buddy! How's it goin'?" and then they ask us what his name is.
The doggie loves snow terribly much. He rolls in it, dives into drifts, snacks on icicles... He loves wind too. I watched him stand face into the wind for a long, long time. He had his eyes closed and he was really enjoying the sensation. That was beautiful to watch. (no photo, sorry)
I love the change to our backyard landscape. I used to take such joy in seeing little boot tracks all over the fresh snow. Now we have paw prints to enjoy.
I'm not the only one loving this new addition to the family.
Check out this love note that was anonymously left on the frosty window. : )
Aaaawe. : ) SWEET!
Have a great Thursday.
What a lucky dog - to find so much love. I'm guessing he's a keeper.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. I'm sure Buddy will be very happy. I wanted to name our senior adoptee Buddy my son liked Baxter better.
ReplyDeleteHe has a sweet face :)
ReplyDeleteI can't belive how much both your new dog and my pup look alike. We have always had border collies to help with cows and they are so loving and a great family dog! He will be your second shadow! We named our new addition, Timber!
