Afternoon Walk

This afternoon I took Lassie and Petal for a walk with my Mom and three younger sisters. We drove into town and walked through the neighborhood where we enjoyed the autumn leaves.

The two of them had a blast sniffing the leaves, grass, trees, and various other plants and things. Petal even found a watch and a water bottle, which she tried to carry with her.

Petal also enjoyed barking and listening to her echo! She's obsessed with the sound of her own voice.

But mostly the two of them enjoyed the chance to take their people out for a much needed walk. ;]

Terrible Blogger Makes A Comeback.

And she's already forgotten how to use this thing!

I guess that's what I get for abandoning this blog for four months.

But let's get down to business and stare at some pictures of my cute dog! ;]

This entry will be all about Petal, because she has grown so much! She's ten months old now. :[



I swear she was a supermodel in another life. She made these poses all on her own.

Looking pretty in the back of my 1950's red Chevy pickup truck! ;]

This little Collie girl has way too much personality (as most Collies do!), it oozes out of her ears. She's a nut and makes the weirdest sounds, like she's moaning or mumbling to herself. She'll also stare at you from out of the corner of her eye. It looks hilarious. She often reminds me of a cartoon character come to life.She thinks my sister's 20 lb. cat is her best friend, but the cat thinks otherwise. ;]
Petal is growing up to be a very patient dog. We've been babysitting a family friend's three little girls once a week and Petal happily puts up with hair pulling, ear pulling, tail pulling, and many other things. It's all worth it to her when she gets those girls giggling. There's something about those giggles; Petal just loves that sound.
