Meet Tucson's newest canine resident!





Yes, a puppy has been added to the household! My Aussie was very depressed with the loss of our big boy, Nanook, and it was pretty clear I needed to take some action. I tried Pima Animal Care Center and I tried the Humane Society with no luck finding a pal for my lonely boy, Jasper.

The Humane Society suggested I try a puppy. I was reluctant to take on all that entails but the wonderful folks at AZ Border Collie Rescue matched us up with this sweet sweet girl. Her name is Abby! And in her first day she has already succeeded in stealing bones from Jasper -- something I would have never thought possible! He is a dominant boy and I thought fur would fly. Nope! Happiness reigns!

  5. Welcome Abby!! Great photo of her sneaking the chew bone away from Jasper. while he looks up to see what you're doing..and then the last picture where Jasper appears resigned - so much to teach this new lil sister! I was so sorry to read about Nanook. I wasn't on the computer much for a couple of weeks, so I missed your posting on his passing. Thank you for filling your heart by giving this sweet little rescue Border Collie a forever home :)
