The watchful herder

Keeping track of Ace is serious business.

Does she have to go?
Pixie is fitting right in and being so good. She actually got my cat Scout to chase her today. Scout normally does not play with any dog!
By the way, it snowed in Fargo today.

Pixie is having fun! But she is going to be so happy to see “Mom and Dad”!

Pixie is very observant and doesn’t miss a thing. She has her eye on Ace at all times. We have been going out for morning and evening walks and runs.

It’s so hard to hold still when you are a border collie!
Pixie is doing great. I am going to miss her when she goes home, but she is going to be so happy to see “Mom”! She is such a sweet, friendly dog. She makes me smile every time I look at her.

Doesn’t she look vicious?
Pixie and Ace

These two insist on sharing the same bed even though there are two dog beds and several blankets.
Pixie lets me brush her teeth with no problems. I can tell she’s used to it!
Good girl

Pixie loves to play! She tries to get the cats to chase her, and they just look at her like, “Yeah, right.”
She doesn’t bark much, just whines here and there when we see other dogs during our walks. She has been using her bed for naps and she curls up in it at night too.
Pixie is being good!

She is good at getting Ace to play, and when he refuses to play, she curls up right next to him. She has been eating well and has not chewed on anything she shouldn’t.

Pixie went for a run with Ace and I this morning. This afternoon we went out for another 4 miles and I have never seen her so tired! She has been a very good pup. She met the cats and is gentle with them.

After about five minutes, Pixie curled up in her bed. So cute. 
I can tell she has had a bath because she is so soft and clean! The dogs are sleeping next to each other.
She’s having fun!

Pixie the border collie

Pixie continues to be a good girl! She will rest for awhile, then play, then rest, then play …
She was very good on her walk and only pulled in the beginning. We are going to head out for another walk shortly.

Pixie wanted to play nonstop for about an hour. After playing and a 2-mile walk, she is finally resting at my feet. She is being a very good girl.
