Talking I'm baaaack! New puppy

Well, Soter here. Hello everybody. In the time I haven't been on, I have moved house, got a new baby niece AND finally a new puppy!

I'm so happy!

My niece doesn't actually live with us, so there are no 'her and the puppy' problems. Right... My puppy !!!!!!!!!!

My puppy is a border collie, called Soter, 1 year old, and is so fantastic. I have been waiting fourteen years for a dog! She sleeps in the hallway outside my bedroom, in her crate. She goes for a walk once a day but as she gets older we will make it a bit longer or make it two walks. I have done my research and found lots of Ceasar Milan and Jan Fennell (dog trainers) stuff to help us train her and guide her. She is so far doing very well, is so respectful and calm, does not chew on things she isn't meant to (except for the occasional nibble), and I have potty trained her. She only nipped people when she was a tiny puppy, but does not do that any more. She always walks beside you on a walk, and is getting on so well with other dogs and people. She is like a wonder dog! (I'm not exagerating.) It is just so exciting!!

Soter

I can't believe you haven't posted any pics of your new baby.

Welcome back to the forum and congratulations.

Looking forward to pics of Sotor.

So I've been hearing rumors of this puppy.... Only.... NO PICTURES!!!! What's that all about?

Better come back and take care of the problem or we'll have to start hounding you unmercifully!

Welcome back!

Hey guys, trust me, I know about pictures!
I would have her as my profile picture, but whenever I try to get the pics from my camera, the stupid computer keeps saying 'cannot upload file content. Unknown file' Do you guys know what to do with that??

Anyhoo, I was reading on the sofa last night and she came up and put her paws on my tummy and nuzzled me and it was so cute! Sorry for being soppy, but she is just so darn gorgeous!

Soter
