Hello Killian!

Tom and I picked up our new baby Killian on Friday, June 11th and he is amazing! I feel like such a proud parent- I took him to his first vet appointment and (he got a shot :( but was very good about it) and he weighs a whopping 16 POUNDS! He is bigger than his brothers by 2lbs and he is only 10 weeks old! It looks like Tom and I are in store for not just a crazy border collie, but a giant crazy border collie. For the past few days he has been absolutely puppy-like and plays very well with his buddy and fellow puppy (cousin) golden-retriever Sophie. Hopefully his issue with humping begins to subside lol because it might start to be a problem if we take him to the park or anywhere there are female dogs haha.

Killian is quite the looker and every one is always surprised that he is a pure bred border collie because he is a rare red (liver) and white color and his eyes are hazel/yellowish. People are so curious what we will call him for short and of course we aren't planning on calling him "killer" or "kill", that would be weird and he is totally not deserving of those names... not yet anyway lol but i think we might call him "killy" as it sounds a little less nasty. I was really impressed that he did so well on his first walk on friday and managed to keep up with the big dogs ( sophie and bailey) after such a long day of excitement and new things.

We are very proud of our new little man and will be excited to share more about him in the upcoming weeks.. hopefully all good news and not about him destroying a favorite pair of shoes or humping more innocent lady-dogs haha). And like I said before I would like to eventually post pictures of the little rascal and other things once I get around to having time to actually open up my laptop when I get home from work .. and charging my camera .. and uploading pictures .. you see what I mean , but someday I will get my life together and be able to cross simple things off my list and be able to breathe!

Ps Thanks for the vent session at the end there :)
