Lazy afternoon

Foster does such a great job of putting up with her.

But he's mastered the 'look of suffering'.

Icon still doesn't suffer her.  At least not very well.

Kirk turned my patio furniture into a puppy hammock. I wonder if she'll still lay there when she grows up. I'm sure she'll still fit.  

She is also a bit of a food hoarder.  And a bit possessive of her food.  At least she doesn't growl and try to bite me anymore!  I definitely call that a training win.

Puppy on the prowl

Puppy on the prowl at work.

But she's not the most graceful yet!  Oops!

She'll be graceful one day, though!

All of my border collies grew up coming to work with me and staying in the car (they're not allowed in the office).  They get to go out for walks and stuff during the day.  It's really good for socialization since they meet lots of people.  Not that it helped much for Rampage, he never really liked meeting new people.  Kirk LOVES it, though!  She thinks everyone is there to meet her.  We also go on field trips around work.  I like going for walks along the bay, but my favorite is the Wind Harp.  When it's windy (it usually is in South San Francisco) it produces lots of erie sounds.  Kind of cool.   

Some days I'll bring a random dog from home to keep her company.  They look like buddies, but he hates her.  Sorry Kirk.

She don't care!  It's good to be a puppy.

Bye for now!

The final frontier

Oh no, it's a Gorn!

Don't worry, I won't let it get away.

Scotty, there's something wrong with the gravity plate!  

No Starships were harmed in the making of this blog.  Much.

Brotherly Love

I love how good my boys are with Kirk.  They don't all LIKE her, but they are good with her.  Maybe they already know that in a few short months she will be the boss of them.


Foster has always been good with puppies.  He's a good shoulder to lean on.  This is Icon and Foster back in the day.


And Foster is still great with puppies, of course.



Icon thinks that puppies have their uses.  They are fun to herd, anyway.



But he likes puppies on HIS terms only.  He's very appropriate though.



Rampage just wants to be left alone.  "I'll just stay as far away as possible and look handsome"

Her name is Kirk!

I decided to just stick with my boy name, Kirk!  It's fun to say and she likes it (and so do my other dogs). 


Foster continues to be so good with her, but he doesn't like his new nickname, "Momma Foster"





Kirk's whole head fits in Foster's mouth!


Dasher has no clue what's in store for her.


Incoming!



Hopefully Kirk will grow into this Frisbee

Puppy vs the ball

For the record, she threw that ball for herself.  

And even caught it.  Love handsome Rammy in the background.  He stays as far away from the beast as he can, but circles her like a satellite (a bouncing, barking satellite)  

 And look at what a wonderful brother Foster is.  Like there was ever any doubt :)

Puppiness!

Only the newest and cleanest toys are good enough for my delicate girl.

 Love at first sight (not really, but now that's how I'll remember it)
