Hi. I am Bella and my sister Fiona and me are Border Collies. Fiona will post a pic of herself before her intro post.
Today we are 13 weeks old. We are sisters and if you haven't figured it out by now we are puppies.. you know 'four legged, irresitable, loving, cute, soft anf furry bundles of joy' Got the visual? .. ok.. we're dogs. - and yes, dogs can't type.. but we can talk a little so our step-parents said they would do the typing.
This blog is gonna be the story of our lives as told by us to our step-parents Dave and Sarah.
We both had operations on the same day so we can't have babies when we grow up - we got a chip too in case we get lost.
Our other sister got adopted before we did - we don't know where she is but hope she will read this blog and write us someday to tell us how she is doing.
Lotsa people came to visit us a the shelter but no one picked us. Most people said because we are Border Collies we are too hyper - we even practiced our manners to get someone to pick us but no one did .. we were pretty sad because we thought someone might only want one of us and then all three of us would be separated for life.
On Friday, October 16 two people came to the shelter and looked all around. We could hear them talking to the shelter workers and they said they wanted TWO puppies!! We barked and barked but they didn't come to our area. We saw them walking and holding hands and talking - we knew they would be nice people and wished they would come and see what good puppies we are!!
The nice man came to our little cage first and looked in - boy was he scary!! He has this funny tail growing under his nose on both sides!! He is SO BIG!! We never saw a man that looked like that!! Then the lady came and looked into our cage - she was so beautiful and had such a kind voice! We hoped and hoped they would like us..
The shelter person opened our cage and the nice people played a little with us.. they were so nice and kind and the lady picked us up and snuggled with us and said something about 'puppy breath' .. the man and lady asked the shelter people about us and we heard them say they really wanted us to stay together. The shelter people took us out of our cage and we got to run and play with the nice man and lady!!
After a few minutes the shelter people put us back in our cage and the nice man and lady walked away holding hands and talking just like so many other people had before - we were so very sad when we saw the door close ...
We were eating lunch when the shelter man came and opened our cage - we saw the nice man and lady coming down the hallway and they had a file with lotsa papers in it - the lady was putting her bag down on the table and picked us up and held us close..
"Hi there you two", she said.. "I'm Sarah and this is Dave .. we're your new parents and you're coming home!!"

So.. to catch you, the gentle reader, up to date here is the short version of our history so far;
We were born sometime in early July to a family in Modesto that didn't want us - we don't know why they didn't want us but they didn't. The family took the two of us and our sister to the animal shelter and dropped us off on October 6, 2009. At least they did that much for us.
The people at the shelter were nice - they gave us food and water and a bath (yuck!!). They gave us a little cage to live in and checked on us a few times each day.We both had operations on the same day so we can't have babies when we grow up - we got a chip too in case we get lost.
Our other sister got adopted before we did - we don't know where she is but hope she will read this blog and write us someday to tell us how she is doing.
