The puppy Allie was
hilarious and got into everything. One day, she stuck her head inside a trash can
and came out with the wrapper of a coke 12- pack around her snout. She ran
around the office, freaking out, blinded, bumping into walls and shaking her
head feverishly. I finally caught her and tore the wrapper off. She calmed down
immediately; nothing seemed to faze her for long.
Although Princess was only five at the time, she was poised and graceful, well trained and very sweet. She would
stretch out beneath her master’s desk everyday, sighing as she slowly situated
herself into a comfortable position to sleep most of the day.
I was so taken by the two of them that years later, I actually adopted a Smooth Coated Collie of my own. Back then, having the two beauties in the office made me feel right at
home. The bonus was being responsible for the promotion of an animal charity. What luck!
