Haggis the Collie is gradually settling into the family. He remains somewhat undisciplined, ripping flannel sheets in an attempt to make a nest on the queen sized bed, barking LOUDLY at any noisy activity from outside the house even at 3:00 AM, jumping up in joy upon our return leaving painful evidence of his weight and unyielding nails on arms and legs, and succumbing to the herding instinct every time a car passes on the twice a day walks.
Hubby has been successful in letting him loose, thirty foot lead still attached, and calling him back with a shrill whistle when he is in full flight. I am not so confident, since I doubt Haggis will heed my own weak attempts, so morning walks do not include a headlong dash across the neighbourhood park (field).
He’s a lovely boy, we are willing to work with his deficits.
Oh he is lovely!
If I didn’t know better, I would say he knows it too. 😀
What a beautiful Collie O.o
I named mine the same xd
Do you shorten it to ‘Hags’ too?
Mainly to ‘Hagiś’ or ‘Hagisek’ xd
