Hello everyone! This is my first official blog post. And who am I? My name is Jill. That’s right. I’m giving Kathy a break this week since she’s been busy helping me take care of my puppies. Oh yeah, maybe I should mention that I’m not really a person. I am a purebred 4 year old Border Collie. That’s a picture of me and my puppies at the top. I’ve been hearing about these “Not Me Monday” posts and they sounded pretty interesting, so I thought I’d give it a try. I think you’ll find it very interesting.
First, there is no way that I decided to come in “Season” the week after Jerrad and Kathy got married. I knew they had a lot going on so I did not try to hinder them by digging out of the lot, tearing through chain link, and climbing out of kennels. I also did not decide to have a little honeymooon fun of my own with the other males in the lot (one beagle and another border collie). And better yet, I’m pretty sure that I didn’t make it very very hard for Kathy to figure out who “got to me.”
Then, I know I didn’t hide my pregnancy until the last two weeks (they just thought I had gained some weight). And after the puppies were born, there is no way that those puppies could look like either beagles or border collies so they don’t know whether they will have to sell them or beg people to take them.
And now, I’m not keeping my humans busy by constantly trying to break out of a steel horse trailer (which I did not break out of completely at least once). And I certainly did not get scared of the fireworks the other night and climb across the trailer divider to hide in the bottom drawer of an old dresser that is being stored there for now. And I kind of didn’t forget to bring my puppies with me (oops!). The next day, I did not decide that the dresser would be a better place to keep my puppies and did not try to bring them over there with me. Kathy did not catch me in the act and make me put them back. Well, it seems that Kathy has caught on to my antics and fixed everything so I can’t do what I want. So it would be very bad if I had decided to constantly move the puppies to different places in the trailer and never leave them in the same place for more than 8 hours. Whew! I sure have been busy keeping my humans busy. And one more thing…Kathy decided to put up some sticky fly paper to try to keep down the flies. But, I’m pretty sure that I did not get hung up in at least 2 of those papers and have them stuck all over my body and around my tail so that she had to cut them off of me.
Well, I had better run on now. My puppies are hungry and I’m going to see what other people food I can finagle out of Kathy.
