Sorry to hear about your accident! Especially going into the Christmas Holiday.

We have a new Border Collie. She is a little over 7-months old and as exuberant as heck. She has taken to playing with a plywood and fabric cat scratcher, flipping it around. Unfortunately, she nailed me with it right on my recent surgery site, where I had a bunionectomy done in June. My foot had been bothering me for a couple of days, so I called the podiatrist and went in yesterday afternoon. Sure enough, there was a brake on that toe, so I am in a boot for the next six-weeks! Bummer.

I am trying to figure out how I will be clearing snow snow, cleaning the coop and doing dump runs. Yeah, I know...very carefully!

I hope your MRI is clear and you are back on your feet, quickly!

Merry Christmas to All! Thank God and Trump that we can say this again!

I’m envious of your new pet border collie.

We visited a Christmas tree farm near Lebanon, MO last week and cut our tree, with the help of a very friendly border collie. We’ve owned dogs over the year but never one of these.
What a personality !

Ouch! Sorry to hear that! So far, no injuries!
We have a 5+ month old mini Bull Terrier. He's the little black and white pup.

Oh no! Will be praying for you as well for healing and getting the winter chores done.

Pups and other furballs can really reek havoc with sore spots. Seems they can always hit them with something while playing.
