i dunno what it is about me lately, but all i can think about is gettine me a border collie puppy. ive had 2 dogs in my life, smokey, who was a keeshund, was our dog when i was a litte little kid, he was a cool dog and tolerated myself and my slightly older brother samuel SO VERY well. but he was when we were very young and we had to give him up when i was bout 5 and we moved to a home that wasnt really suitable for him.
so we went a loooong time without a dog, untill one christmas we all asked for a puppy. i wanted another keeshund cause of the fond memories of smokey. mom and dad and santa had another idea. they were at the pet store (this was just before the puppy mill stuff broke, i will NEVER get a dog from a pet store, dont start with me!) and they had this litter of border collie puppies and one of the puppies picked them. us. its great how dogs always kinda end up picking you in circumstances like that. well, they fell in love and we had a puppy for christmas. he was named murphy. i miss the shit out of that dog. he was awesome. one of those dogs that was so happy that you were home that he wouldnt just wag his tail, he would wag his whole ass. a dog that loved you so much that he would hop up on the couch next to you and nuzzle hisself under your arm. he was silly and funny and so sweet and i taught him to to spread um ^.^ a dog that when you were upset and cryoing he knew you needed love and would sit next to you and let you hug him and cry into him.
we had to let got of murphy too. thats the most painful memory, they way it went down hil.. border collies are herding dogs, they need to be running constantly or theyll lose it! we were forced to move into a SMALL apt with no yard. we were all depressed and no one seemed to have enough time to walk the murphman anymore..... plus we werent supposed to have him anyways. so he started getting resentful, and we started getting resentful.... and then one day, without even letting us say our goodbyes, mom took him to the aspca.
i miss my murphy dog a lot.
i guess thats why ive been obsessed about getting one these days. i guess the guilt of how it went for him has finally got to me and i want to make it right by getting another border collie and doing it right this time. thats and theyre wonderful dogs ^.^
someday soon i will have me another murphy dog and all will be right with the world.. untill then, ill snuggle with my stuffed murphy dog that Lim Bless gave me and pretend its a puppy ^.^
what about you guys? you have puppies? you miss former puppies? you want a puppies? i wanna know!
dogs are possibly the greatest companion in the world (next to a sloth of course) whos youre companion?

The lusty and I have FINALLY agreed on what kind of puppy to get when we move. Australian Cattle Herder. They are like my favorite dogs ever. In chinese astrology I am a water dog, in Mayan astrology I am a white dog. I like to think that if i were a kanine that I'ld be an Australian Cattle Dog.
My childhood dog, well, Mister Butch Cassidy is an old man now and he is mal-nourished at my mother's house because mom is a tool and the vet convinced her that he can only eat this shity prescription food and nothing else. whenever i see him i beg her to change food but she is in denial like a woman in an abusive relationship. I always sneak him all the food i can find when I see him.
He used to be great and well behaved too, before my mother started taking care of him.
I swear to take good care of dogs and never let something like that happen again.
