    oooh, I'm so envious!! congratulations on your new boy!

    I was perusing the local SPCA for dogs, I still have such a huge spot for senior Rottweilers and found one that just broke my heart. He was neglected and was found emaciated but doesn't have a mean bone in his body and just wants a peaceful retirement home. I don't know if I'm ready to go back into it again, but I know when the time is right I'll end up with another senior dog.

    Tulip! Shiloh is absolutely adorable! And I love the name you picked too, very sweet. Now about your new hairsytle......I thought your previous hairstyle was a large afro topknot( based on your avatar). so I thought the hairstyle was the least of your changes!, as I thought you were of African American ethnicity! Is there a story about your avatar? Tokie

    She's Heather Small, the lead singer for M People, a great British dance/house band of the 90s. Love them, and I love her style. I went for a long time with no avatar, but then changed my mind about them. They are our alter-egos.

    Shiloh was not treated very well in his previous life. He's terrified of children and extremely leary of strangers. I think the obedience class will help to socialize him, and hopefully he can learn to trust people again. He warmed up to me right away, but he's so interesting-looking that strangers want to come up and pet him and he doesn't like that at all. And I have to schedule our walks so that they don't conflict with school bus action (lots of kids in my neighborhood). He's an extremely good dog, though! I couldn't have asked for a better pup, especially since I haven't had one since Daisy (also a Border Collie) died in 1985.
