My name is Abby Rose. This photo of me is when I was 7 weeks old. I'm a little bigger now as I am 8-1/2 weeks old tomorrow. My mom is a retired Interior Designer. She's only had one dog before me. She was a border collie, too. My dad still works full time but may retire next year. He has had dogs all his life and he just loved the border collie he and my mom had before me. Unfortunately she had some socialization and aggression issues toward strangers and other dogs. Mom and Dad want to make sure I grow up well adjusted and happy. They were very careful selecting the breeder I came from. They told me if I want to compete in agility, confirmation, rally or obedience I could. Whatever I enjoy most is what we'll do! Mom and Dad are taking me to Wisconsin October 8-11 for Border Collie Nationals. I'll get to meet lots of other border collies and their owners. My breeder will be there with one of my littermates. I'm looking forward to seeing them and playing with my sister again! I hope we have lots of fun in 101 class and Puppy Class. I'm a very sweet and loving little girl. I haven't had time to develop too many bad habits yet. Mom and Dad think I should start learning at a young age and playing with lots of other puppies because it will be very good for me. Mom and Dad have a lot to learn, too! I'm lucky because they're willing to do just about anything for me! I'm looking forward to meeting you and all the other students on Thursday, Peggy! Woof Woof for now!
