    I can't get the little feller to sit and stay for the camera so excuse my dirty gardening hands holding his head still enough for you to see him.

    He's a smooth coated border collie and he's really growing on us.

    Oh, he's beautiful. If his legs and tail were shorter and he was stretched out a bit he would look like Chance. He's just shy, give him a few weeks. Dooley

    Oh, Muddy, he is a sweetie. So glad y'all are giving him a good home. We got a new kitten last week. The neighbor girl found her in the middle of the highway covered in mud. She brought her to us bc she said she knew we would take care of her. She is in my lap right now zipped up in my jacket asleep.

    Steve looks as though he has a great personality Muddy. Once he settles in completely I think you're going to see it shine through. :-D He's a handsome fellow that's for sure.

    What a fine looking friend. I'm very fond of dogs but looking after one at present would be difficult. We had a Welsh border collie years ago as a pup and he was so full of beans we couldn't cope so had to let someone else take him on.

    He looks ready to lick you in that first one! Great name for a dog, though my DH might raise an eyebrow, being a Steve himself, lol! Does he behave himself well around the horses?

    Mary, our dogs have no way to get in with the horses. To tell the truth I think we would worry more about Bob behaving himself around the dogs. He's been known to kick when he is excited. I thought he broke the shoulder on one of our ewes when she ran behind him and got him all stirred up. She was lucky. We then separated horses from sheep to be safe.
    Steve is settling in well and appears to be a happy little boy.
