Introducing a new member of the family – Jewel. Interestingly enough she’s from the same litter that Trix is from. Trix originally went to a family down the street, and Jewel went to their brother. As their youngest is starting college soon they didn’t have enough time to keep a border collie occupied and out of trouble, so they offered her to us.

I’m not sure if they remembered each other, but they took to playing together right away.

The new puppy around the house is Trix, a 10 month old Border Collie/Australian Shepard mix.  Lots of energy and self centered like only a puppy can be.  Fly gets along with her well, although she has had to explain to Trix about keeping to her own food bowl.  Trix, on the other hand, doesn’t understand why everyone doesn’t want to play with her 23 hours per day.  She’ll start pestering Fly who will just get up and walk away when she’s not interested.
