New Dog

We got mom a Collie. She is a blue merle. If you've never seen one I'll just have to put some pictures of her up. Oh, we called her Lucy. If we would have gotten a boy these are the names we picked out. St.Cuthbert and Stashew. Stashew was my idea. It means Stanley in Polish. I know, I know, us Polish people rock like that. Especially those of us who are also German...but that's a story for another time.
Now, where was I? Oh yes, Lucy. She was really great on the ride home. She didn't get sick until Daddy stopped the car in the driveway. After letting Lucy sniff around for a half hour mother and I gave her a bath. Boy, that was sucky. Lucy's breeders had never brushed her or given her a bath. They made her an outside dog.
It took about ten minutes to get her in the tub and what seemed like forty five to get her fully washed. Ugh! It took about ten minutes for mom to brush her. But we only got her head and back brushed. She is an extremely calm dog. Total polar opposit of Oreo. They get along like vanilla ice cream and chocloate syrup. Both girls are excited and wagging there tails constantly.
Oreo is trying to coerse Lucy into playing tug right now. Lucy won't buy it though. She is laying next to me and attempting to fall asleep. She is a gorgeous dog. Well, thats all for now. I'll put pictures of her up soon.
Spork On, Haley
