Introducing Fidget

Introducing the newest member of our family... Fidget, a 10 week old male red and white border collie : ) We've had for just over a week now and have enjoyed every minute of it. Don't get me wrong, he is a lot of work. He has to be let out about twice a night to go the bathroom and he wants to chew on everything but that is to be expected. Here are just a few pictures of Fidget.


Fidget pretty much picked us out instead of us picking him out of the litter. As soon as we got there he walked straight up to Cris and sat with him.


Border Collies are a very active breed of dog and need a lot of exercise. They are also extremely smart. Look up border collie tricks on you tube and you will see how smart they are : )


I love his green eyes. I hope they stay green. We met the mother and she had gold eyes so who knows, Fidget's might change when he gets older.


He has a lot of personality. I can't wait to find out what kind of dog he grows into. Right now we are working on teaching him to "come", "sit", and "drop". After that maybe will be able to teach him some more complicated tricks. For now, we will work on the basics.
