6/2/26: I am definitely the diva here at my new home with the Messinas. Being the only dog is amazing and all the attention belongs to me. We go for walks around the neighborhood and I am settling in nicely. There are just a few house rules I’m still negotiating. For example, I’m not supposed to drink out of the birdbath. Personally, I think the birdbath water has a much richer flavor than the water bowl, but humans can be very particular about these things. I haven’t fully agreed to that rule yet, so discussions are ongoing.
5/8/26: I am a 4-year-old tri collie girl who could stand to lose a few pounds, but that should be easy because I love to run, play with toys, and romp around with the other dogs. I am housetrained, crate trained, ride nicely in the car, and am learning loose leash walking. One new thing I’m getting used to is tile floors, and honestly, they are a little scary to me right now. I’m adjusting, but I still try my best to scoot across them as quickly as possible. I am a very sweet girl who loves attention, petting, and being close to my people. Empress and I came into rescue together after our owner passed away. I’ve included a picture of myself before my grooming appointment when I was pretty dirty. Just look at how shiny and beautiful my coat is now after my spa day!
