Hi Everyone -
        I was just talking to a friend who has a BC/ES cross who inherited
her BC father's energy. Her owner came down with spiral menengitis and had
to go to the emergency room. They have her on the gurney and shes's
writhing in pain and they are talking about how sick she is and Katy blurts
out "I can't be sick! I have a Border Collie!" everyone laughed and she
said "no, no, you don't understand. I have  Border Collie!".
        Katy's friends have all stepped in and helped by taking Gemma for
walks every day so she's doing fine and Katy's getting better. Katy's
scottie went 12 days without a real walk before he even thought about
complaining...
