Tatum Tot Spice CGC

So the Mum tells us that Titus has to go and stay someplace else. That is so sad because I really love Titus and we like to play in the yard! The Mum says that she really loves Titus too and would love to keep him here with all of us, but she says she can’t give him the lots of love and time that he needs because she is giving it to us and I guess I kinda understand that okay. But Still…

Titus is going back to where he was born because the lady who helped his Mamma when he was born loves him a lot too and he’s going to stay there for a while. He still needs a forever home though so if you love collies please let us know because Titus is a super sweet wonderful collie boy! Maybe if I make a magic Symbol LS2208 then that’ll help him get a home. I’ll make lots of wishes and hopes for him.

Chase doesn’t like Titus very much as the Mum says we have to respect what Chase wants too.  Hrmph Chase is just grumpy and doesn’t play with me like Titus does!  Well sometimes Chase does and maybe he will again when Titus goes to live someplace else.

So our hearts are breaking for Titus to go away but we know he will be fine where he goes!

Titus is still here and he’s super fun! I like to play with him, and so does Jet. The Dad and the rest of us think he should just stay because he’s just sweet and wonderful and I can boss him around too! And the Mum takes pictures of him with her digital cameras because he is so handsome.

But there are already seven of us and lots of people don’t understand if there would be eight of us! Hey was there a TV show once called Eight Of Us? Was it about dogs? It should have been!

Then maybe we could have our own show and wouldn’t that be fun! Oh but only if people didn’t have to bring their cameras into our house and bug us all day. I’d get grumpy at them too because I like my nap time and beauty sleep too you know!

So what do you guys think of Titus? Think he should stay? I think he should stay. He snuggles with the Mum really well to and she loves him already!  But the Mum says nooooo to Eight of Us. Ugh! She’s a poop!

So this is Titus isn’t he handsome! I really like him a lot! His real person Mum died when he lived in California and isn’t that just really sad? I think so too. So he was going to go back to his breeder hooman but she has to take care of her Mum who is super sick. And so Titus came to stay with us for a little while!

With all the disability appeal going on around here it’s sad that people are sick and leaving this world. So we are sad for them and for Titus. But I like him and he thinks I’m pretty and we like to flirt!

Titus is a smooth tricolored collie boy.  The Dad here really likes him and wants him to stay, but the Mum says if he stayed there would be eight of us then and that’s really too many of us dogs in this little house.  But I like him too and I would love if he stayed.  Chase and Levi don’t like him but they don’t like anyone so that’s nothing new.

Anyway maybe he will stay, maybe he won’t. But while he is here we will play and have fun!

So the Mum came home today and then Aunt Christy came over and she brought Charlie with! Charlie is a border collie girl who has been at the shelter for three months. That’s a long time! A really nice lady at the shelter liked Charlie and wanted to save her, so, she contacted Utah Collie Rescue. And even though UCR usually only does collies like me, we are gonna have Charlie stay with us a couple of days until she can go to another foster home with Border Collie Rescue.

The Mum didn’t get very good pictures of her but she wants to post more over on her blog Tip Tail, anyway. But this is Charlie. And she’s black and white and a little bit fat! She didn’t want to eat dinner, but us dogs don’t like to eat much when we come to a new home, so that’s okay. She can eat later. She has enough fat to last her a while anyway! LOL She’s not skinny like me!So when Charlie came to explore the back yard, I used all my good play moves on her but she didn’t play with me. Hrmph! Well, she better.

But I’m boss of her, and just a couple of minutes ago I let her know… I growled at her then I bit at her and made her run away! The Mum said I was a bad girl and wasn’t supposed to do that to foster dogs. Charlie just was a wimp and ran from me. She didn’t even fight back! Which is good because I’m boss girl here (we won’t talk about Lucy) and I get to tell all the other dogs what to do!

But I’ll try to be nice to her.  The Mum says she hasn’t had a home like I have for the last year and a half. But I was also worried that Charlie would eat some of the Tuna the Mum had. I really like Tuna and I want it all for me! I even got a big chunk of it out of the Mum’s salad before she knew it!  He he. I like to do that.

I know I put up more pictures of me than of Charlie but hey, I’m cuter anyways.  He he.  I’m a collie girl!

I Like To Read

Yup, I like to read. The Mum left out this cool flier for me the other day and I made sure that I gave it a good read. Though the Mum says that she can’t read stuff very well after I read it. I read about Movado watches and sales of dog treats and even things the Mum might be interested in.

Reading is really fun, do you like to read?

Oh and hey, with Sasha gone and my other friend boy gone (who I’m not supposed to talk about for a while, it’s a secret!) our house is kinda boring now.  But I played with Muffit and Chase a little bit today. And now we are all sleeping and taking it easy. The Mum says she’ll try to remember to bring the camera to flyball practice tomorrow so I can show you all how good I’m doing!

I did have fun at training yesterday and I got to learn this thing called a Broad Jump and I wanted to walk on it instead of jump over it but it sounded scary and so I jumped and the Mum gave me a treat for it. Yum!  The Mum says I can do three jumps in a row now and that is really good!  Soon I’ll be able to do a hundred!

Nose Before

You guys kinda know about Sasha right? She came to stay with us for a little while and I liked playing with her. She had icky scabs on her nose and the Mum and the Dad didn’t know what they were, so Sasha had to go to the vet and they found out what it was.

Sasha has Pemphigus which I guess isn’t a good thing to have.  And so we were all worried about Sasha.  But the doctor said that actually maybe it wasn’t all that bad and she got to take something called Vitamin B3 and Tetracycline which was supposed to help her better. And guess what?

Nose After

She is better now! She even had hair growing on her nose and it’s getting browner and not so pink anymore. And even though I like pink as a color pink isn’t a good color for us collie’s noses to be. Nope! Brown is better for noses. And Sasha is really happy now and ran around and doesn’t need Leptovox and she even got a new home!

The new family came to pick her up today. They made a long drive all the way from someplace in Wyoming that’s far north from here and colder in the winter. But she’ll be indoors and she even will have kids to play with!  Some of the kids came with and they played with her in the yard today and Sasha had fun with them!  She rubbed on them and she woofed at them and she looked happy too.

This bottom picture was from Sasha’s nose just today before her new forever family came to pick her up.  See the hair growing back? Yay!  And her teeths are cleaned and my Aunt Laurie gave her a bath and a brush and made her pretty and smell all nice!

The Mum and the doggie doctor still say that the new family will have to watch her nose and stuff for a while to make sure she is all okay. But Sasha has really good chances of being all okay for a really long time. And the Mum was sad to see Sasha go but she was also happy that Sasha got a super forever family. Yay!

The Mum says that Utah Collie Rescue, Inc. could still use some monies to help pay for the bills that Sasha got when she stayed with us.  To help other collies to and to finish paying up for the bills for Sasha.  And we are all glad we got to know Sasha and the Mum says Sasha left footprints on our hearts that we will never forget, just  like all us rescue dogs do.

Yay for Sasha!

Well last night I had a super fun time! The Mum took me to a New Year Pawty.. though it wasn’t on New Years Eve or New Years Day, it still was in this New Year of 2009 so it was fun!

Watching Footsball

For a little while I sat with the Hoomans and watched the TV. There was a Footsball game on, the University of Utah won the game! but I didn’t watch too long because I kinda thought it was boring. And I didn’t have any Swiss Army watches to play with either… so I played with Sadie!

Playing with Sadie

Sadie was super fun to play with! She was a rescue dog like me and she got this super great home with the Mum’s lady she works with, and her guy too! And Sadie is fun, she stayed with us a while ago and we got to play at my house, and now we got to play at her new house! They have a super huge back yard and we ran and ran and ran in the snow until we were wet and tired!

Playing with Sadie

And the Hoomans watched us play too and they thought we were really fun to watch. Oh and I only chased one of the kitties once. And the Mum said I wasn’t supposed to chase the kitties, but I did it anyway it’s too hard not to when they run!

Then after the play and the Footsball Sadie and me got to chew pig ears!

Sadie Chewing

And I chewed too, but I kinda had more fun rolling on the pig ear than chewing it!

Tatum Rubbing

And we had lots of fun at the Pawty!  The Mum was very happy that I got to come, and so was Sadie! And then on the way home in the car I slept the whole way because I was really super tired.  I hope to go play with Sadie again soon!

Dog Park

Hi Everydoggie!  We had a fun day today. First we went to the Tanner Dog Park and we had lots of fun in the snow!

Dog Park

It was just me and Muffit today, and we got to run and run and play with other dogs and it was really cool fun. The Mum wanted me to post up these pictures so you can see how pretty it was at the park. But I would have posted more me pictures!

Dog Park

The paths are fun and there is lots of snow on the trees.  It snowed all yesterday and we got lots of really fun snow, I like the snow! So instead of New York Yankees tickets we had a great day at the park.

Lily and Pack

Then we went for a really looooong drive and guess what guess what?  We got another foster sister! The Mum is calling her Lily and she is a rough sable collie and she was was found on Friday night by a nice guy who took her in and kept her warm. Because it’s way too super cold outside. She has no microchip and she had no tags on, so we’ll see if we can find her home. But if not, she’s our foster sister for a bit! The Mum posted about her too on Tip Tail about Lily!
