Pardon me... by marlboromaam

Pardon me...

While I plop right down here and do some serious chewing on this pine cone - before mom takes it away from me. She says it'll give me worms and might upset my tummy. LOL! Phone shot.
Nice

Nice pic

Funny how dogs live chewing everything !
February 11th, 2023  
@talmon Thanks, Jan.

@photographycrazy Thank you.

@cocobella LOL! He's passed the stage of chewing on everything except sticks, pine cones and sweet gum balls. I'm forever taking them away from him.
February 11th, 2023  
he's a beauty for sure mags , as for eating pine cones and twigs , tell me about it !!!
February 11th, 2023  
@phil_howcroft LOL! Thank you, Phil.
February 11th, 2023  
Oh he is a beauty!
February 11th, 2023  
He is lovely
February 11th, 2023  
@fbailey Thank you so much! He's the only collie that goes to my vet's office - so they tell me. I haven't seen any collies in a very long time.
February 11th, 2023  
@marlboromaam I don't think they're that common over here either. I did think about getting one, or a Sheltie, but couldn't find one of those either. Settled on a Pom!
February 11th, 2023  
@Dawn Thank you, Dawn.

@fbailey Pom's are nice! Strange you couldn't find a rough collie where you are when they hail from Scotland.
February 11th, 2023  
@marlboromaam Scotland is a long tedious trip!
February 11th, 2023  
@fbailey I can imagine. I drove nearly four hours to go get Will Connor in North Carolina.
February 11th, 2023  
@marlboromaam Wow - Scotland is a 12 hr drive just there, not even back!
February 11th, 2023  
@fbailey If you found a breeder, couldn't he put a pup on a train to you?
February 11th, 2023  
@marlboromaam Possibly but I would like to see the parents and its surroundings. Puppy farms are common in Wales and Ireland. My poor little Pom (I'm his 3rd owner) was a Russian export and a bag of nerves near dogs and cars.
February 11th, 2023  
@fbailey Poor thing! I hope he's better now. The breeder I got Will Connor from sent photos and videos of the parents and the puppies. Because of COVID, no visits were allowed except to pick up the pup. I had to choose a pup from the pics and videos... I think I chose well. =)
February 11th, 2023  
@fbailey He actually got the doggie version of the COVID vaccine before I picked him up too.
February 11th, 2023  
@marlboromaam You did indeed!
February 11th, 2023  
@fbailey Thank you! =)
February 11th, 2023  
Sweet Will is looking quite content and just a wee bit defiant hereā€¦ Lovely shot!
February 11th, 2023  
He looks more than happy with his pine cone.
February 11th, 2023  
@ljmanning Thank you, Laura. LOL! Yeah - defiant for sure.

@wakelys Ha ha! for the moment. Thanks, Susan.
February 11th, 2023  
He is so lovely and cute.
February 11th, 2023  
His robe is so beautiful. Did he let it go? My big boy was a chewer when he was younger and it was challenging to have him spit whatever he had in his mouth :-)
February 12th, 2023  
@wh2021 Thank you!

@corinnec Thank you so much, Corinne. LOL! I usually have to wrestle him to take it away.
February 12th, 2023  
@marlboromaam That sounds so familiar :-)
February 12th, 2023  
@corinnec Ha ha! They can be so defiant at times.
February 12th, 2023  
Worms from a pine one? Pearl eats elk bones and live moles!
February 12th, 2023  
@jgpittenger I've had to take him to the vet three times for plumbing trouble - bleeding from his little rectum. Vet said no sticks, pine cones, etc. Apparently, he has sensitive innards, but I'm hoping he'll outgrow it. After the last HUGE vet bill for the prior mentioned symptoms, I watch him very closely.
February 12th, 2023  
Handsome doggie
February 12th, 2023  
He's such a good looking dog
February 12th, 2023  
Fun shot with the cone in its mouth.
February 12th, 2023  
Will looks right at home laying there in the carpet of leaves and grass. It seems like a full time job keeping these fools safe for their first 2-3 years of their life. After that they start looking after their master on what they can do for you. Gotta love those dogs. Great portrait of Will.
February 12th, 2023  
A handsome portrait with a slightly mischievous look with his illegal pine cone!
February 12th, 2023  
Oh, he's so slender and beautiful! And you are so funny
February 12th, 2023  
What a great shot, he sure has grown into such a handsome fellow!
February 12th, 2023  
Beautiful dog and photo.
February 12th, 2023  
seems like a fair find to keep! lovely shot.
February 12th, 2023  
@ososki Thank you, Bill.

@kjarn Thank you, Kathy.

@shutterbug49 Thank you!

@dkellogg Thank you, David. It is a full time job, but you know it's worth it. =)

@amyk LOL! Thank you, Amy.

@monikozi Thank you, Monica. =)

@ludwigsdiana Thank you, Diana.

@johnfalconer Thank you, John.

@ludwigsdiana Thank you very much, Diana.

@pusspup Thank you, Wylie.
February 12th, 2023  
Lovely capture fv!
February 12th, 2023  
He looks so happy with himself. I cannot say when I last saw a rough collie in South Africa. Many years ago I had one who came to me for grooming.
February 12th, 2023  
@ziggy77 Thanks so much, Jo!

@salza Thank you, Sally. They used to be so popular here, but not now. I can't understand why. They have such a sweet temperament.
February 12th, 2023  
Oh my, this is so cute.
February 12th, 2023  
@mittens Thank you very much, Marilyn!
February 12th, 2023  
A lovely portrait!

@craftymeg Thank you, Margaret.
