As promised, I mentioned a new addition to my furry family...His name is Jayne
Arcturus Cobb. You may be wondering why I named him Jayne...If you are not a Brown Coat, (I'm sorry for you) and not familiar with a certain iconic TV show, then I will give you a little education as to where I got his name...Jayne Cobb
The man they call Jayne
His middle name is the name the shelter gave him so I decided to keep it because who doesn't love a star!
On January 10, 2018 I hopped in my truck and headed to Lamar, CO. This is where the foster family from
Second Chance Animal Rescue was located. Now from my house it was a very long ride and this was my view for about 80 miles...A whole lot of nothing. It was rather peaceful so I cranked the country music and sang my way there. After all...I was about to meet my future fur child!

Upon my arrival, I met the founder of the rescue along with a entire herd of about 12 puppies, My application had been approved by this time and all I had to do was pick out my little bundle of fur. The puppies were from two litters. One was a cross of a Corgi mom and a Border collie Dad. My two favorite breeds mixed together. A friend of mine has coined the term "Borgi" The other half of the litter was also Border Collie and some breed I can remember now, but all were...well. PUPPIES! And if anything can make you smile...it's a small herd of puppies!

| Meet Jayne! |
I am quite curious as to how he will look when he is grown due to the corgi influence...will he be vertically challenged? Currently he is now as tall as my other fur child..Mr. McCorgipants. So only time will tell. Jayne is very talented and he is learning a great deal from his big brother. It's been a little over a month since I brought him home, but I think he kinda likes it here.
Once I picked him up in the Springs, my first concern was meeting Mr. McCorgipants. He has been the only dog for almost 5 years. He did have a sister named Penny, but as a older female, she told him who's boss. But now Mr. McCorgipants is top dog and the meet was well...interesting. He totally ignored Jayne for the most part, until he realized he was staying. He and I have been spending some time with a friend who has two dogs and all went very well in the butt sniffing get to know you stage. But, that being said...it was not on his turf and he wasn't the alpha. This is a whole new ball game.

| The meeting of the Corgilicousness |
I have not had a puppy in some time, Mr. McCorgipants was already 10 months old when I rescued him. Jayne does test my patience on a continual basis, puppies chew ALL THE THINGS...I tried to puppy proof my house, but...easier said then done. It has been a learning experience or a reminder of what it takes to bring a newb in to your house. He is rather entertaining most of the time!

This is just the beginning of Jayne's life here. I am sure it will be full of all kinds of antics over the months and years to come. He is quite a treasure~
Until next time....
