Happy Birthday Sunnybunch!

My girl, Tee Creek's Brown Eyed Girl, aka "Sunny" turned ten on May 30th. She is so full of life and is so sweet...I can't imagine ever being without her. I hope she stays as lively and full of the devil as she is now..and spends MANY more years with me!

Birthdays

Sabre was a year old on Apr. 7th while we were away in Texas...you can see his eye is still a mess as his nose.

Storm -my handsome Tri boy, turned 7 on the 29th. I love these two boys whose personalities are as different as night and day!

Happy Anniversary

Rainy dreary day,late flight on American Airlines,a goat for company....3 years later this guy has gained 7 lbs., can do basic obedience AND agility, loves walking on a leash, and is a part of our family...Happy Anniversary "Texas" Teddy:) We all love you!

Collieflowers

And here they are, on a rather rare, decent day in March. Winter was - is - long with February by far being the worst. We had snow and lots of it and in between the days it didn't snow, it was cold, or wet or just plain messy. Now into March, rain has hit after a few days of sun so it is dirty with all the snow melting and the roads etc. layered with sand and mud from the plows .

The dogs are good...Sabre not so much. He is healthy but still destructive and all the crate time, obedience training and agility classes hasn't helped. He weighs over 40 lbs, is tall and lanky and very lovable...now if ONLY we could curb his destructive habits. His behavior frustrates me to no end since none of the others have even come close to what he is like. He's 11 months old now and still a hellion!

Colliedays

Sort of. It is Jan.20 2010. The holidays have come and gone as has the "family". The dogs enjoyed the kids in particular, especially with all the snow we had the last two weeks they were here. Sabre was a pest and is really getting big...bigger than both Teddy and Sunny. And as of the other day, at 9 months of age, he is 41.9 lbs. Thankfully they are all doing well.

Recovery

Well it's over. Sabre is neutered and thank God, he came through it fine. I think my Vet thinks I'm nuts though. I took him in at 8:30 and got a call at 10:15 that all went well and Sabre came through the surgery like "a trooper". When I picked him up, I was surprised to see him as alert as he was. He did snooze on the way home, but he doesn't seem bothered by the surgery. Hopefully this will be the way it is. Right now, he is asleep in front of the fireplace. My little guy...annoying as he can be, he makes my heart smile.

That face!

Well tomorrow our little guy gets neutered. The last almost 5 months have been a lesson in patience. I have none. This pup is a hellion. He is sweet one minute and Satan's spawn the next. He has grown to be taller than Teddy, slightly smaller than Sunny, and weighing 37.3 lbs as of last week Friday. He is smart and appears to love working....he sits,downs,stays,waits,shakes a paw,does a "Lassie",heels and retrieves a ball. He also bugs the crap out of the other dogs to the point of getting himself snarled and growled at....and simply walks away to find his next victim. He has come a long way in being allowed to lay in the living room but still has to sleep in the crate at night. I MAY change this after he recovers from his neuter. I am at once pleased and frustrated.....but life would be dull without that little sweet face here. He has joined the others in saving my sanity. Amazing. I love this little guy.
