Picked up my Dog yesterday! *happy dance*

He looks like a lovely cute guy. Enjoy him.

He is a beautiful looking lad. Anyone who gives an animal a second chance of a good,happy life gets a big fat gold star and a massive round of applause from me .

Fair play to you as we say in Ireland...I hope you have many years of happiness with him..

Oddly enough, the rescue centre that took him in is based in Ireland. About Us - Ainmhithe Animal Rescue

hmmmm....I never met a mellow border collie youngster...mad ones, manic ones, totally flippin ball obsessed and bonkers ones....

But no, never a young mellow one.

Congratulations on your new best friend
from me and my border collie x greyhound (he's all of the above)

I guess after living with 8 other dogs, he's enjoying a little peace and quiet.

HE only sits still when I do, soon as I move he is up and about following me.

Which is one of the reasons I am renaming him Shadow. He's very much not a Roy. :P

Just looked at their FB page and saw Roy and his brothers at 5 months old. Some lovely dogs and cats looking for homes. I think 4 dogs is enough for me

I think 4 dogs is enough for me

Yes, because we all know that when you adopt one dog it doesn't stay that way!

[veggiechicken]

You're so right, Wendy. I only intended to have 2, not 7
At least Roy/Shadow won't be bringing any little surprises with him

[Bonsai Si]

If I had the place to house more I would, sadly I live in a 2 bedroom flat and getting permission for 1 took a struggle.

When I get my own house with a nice large garden that may well change, for now I'll settle with Shadow and me and enjoyable walks, fusses and boys nights in watching Gardener's world. <3

Oh he's GORGEOUS!!!!!! Collies and their crosses are fabulous dogs

My last dog, Tina Whippet, passed in August 2008 and I've been missing a dog in my life since then....especially the snuggles in the evening after a day outdoors
