Well we figured she would be it and be No more after that. So can only imagine my surprise when I got off work friday and joe asked me to meet up at the park to go look at the new walking bridge and I go to get out of my car and what jumps outta his truck is another border collie.

Come to find out this boy had been at the vet for two and half months needing a home. He is only 6 months old and was terrified of everything. I’ve never seen a broken border collie till I seen him. I couldnt see sending him back. He has never been out for walks had a collar nothing. Just walking to the bridge was an experience, every time someone would walk by he would curl up on the ground and freeze. We made it finally and then back and home. Wasnt sure how he was gonna go over with the other dogs but figure would wait and see. We finally got him inside and he wouldnt come out of the back room for over an hour. Joe finally carried him out. We brought out the dogs one at a time so not as to overwhelm him to much. All I can say is he is a totally different dog within the week. Alex just thought he is the best chase buddy and chases him all through the house. Even Kay who generally doesnt like big dogs has taken to playing with him all day long. Have to say its first time ever seen all the dogs passed out cold at the same time. lol He goes back to the vet tomorrow to get fixed as they are fixing him for free for taking him. As he was to go to the shelter this week if no home was found.

I also ordered another pattern to make just like a jacket for him. Looking online I’ve found a bunch of different stuff that I want to try and see if I can do it. I am just shocked that I actually was able to do it. Im so proud of myself and I hope that I can get the hang of it so that I can make many other stuff as well. Who knows maybe ill start making paul some jeans as he cant seem to find any that fit his skinny butt lol.

Got to go out and visit with my Aunt Joan she is doing very well. Was a nice day and was able to catch up on alot of things. Even was able to get some new pictures of my mom and dad that I had never seen before. So that was very special.

We got Paul a new Dog, his name is Alex. He is a Chinese Crested. He is a Hairy Hairless, which means he has hair all over his back and such but not as thick or as much as a normal dog. Paul calls him his son. He Adores him very much. We even took him with us to the Meade County Fair and let paul enter him in the “pet” contest. Paul won 1st Place! in the 20lbs and under section. Boy Paul was proud. His grandma and aunt shelly even came to watch him. Joe won 2nd in the 20lbs and above and 3rd in the trick contest. Oh and I forgot to mention we dyed Alex’s Hair on his head as he has a white mohawk through the hair on his head,well it was Blue and is now Red. We used koolaide. It washes right out but looks pretty neat while its on.

We also got another Border Collie, she is the sister/littermate to the one we had. Her name is Ziggy. She has alot more brown/red in her then Kay-ak does. She has alot of focus issues but shes getting better. We are working on teaching her how to play as she doesnt know how. She was on a working farm and play just wasnt on the top of the list. She has the water drive like kay-ak has the ball drive. She will be a work in progress for some time but she gets there slowly day by day. She is going through her fear stage at the moment and is scared of all sorts of things.

Paul started back to school he is now in 1st grade! He was sad that some of his friends were not going to be in his class this year but he found that he will still see them as they are still in the same school just different teachers. He is doing pretty well so far. The reading is still a struggle but he will get there just takes time.

Well after the games were all done we went to leave but noticed a big cloud down the street so we went down to see what was going on and the Save-a-lot shopping center that been there since the 60′s was on fire. It started down at the smoke shop and went all the way down. It was a total loss. Hard to believe its gone. Paul was all upset as he thought would be no more chicken nuggets lol.

Actually got him in his pool other day and got some cute pic’s of him playing. I’m hoping to get them added here next few weeks or so along with the 3,200 from field day. Yes you read it right three thousand two hundred lol but the kids had a great time. Found out paul will be in Mrs Hayes 1st grade as they are separating the kids out into 2 different classes next year. So not all of his friends will be in his class.
