Default Meet...The Tripe Hound (pic heavy)

Ok I would like to formally introduce you to one of the biggest joys and bane of my like: My border collie Megan (known aliases include: MegBert, The Tripester, Tripe Hound, Divil Dich, Bloater Pup (She was a cuboid as a pup!)).

Meg will be a grand old age of 4 this September and quite frankly how she’s made it to this age I’ll never know. We bought her from a Welsh farm and you know how they say you should never pick the pup that hangs back. Well not only did we pick the pup who hung back we picked the one that looked out at us from the back of the litter box and said “screw you”. Well mum *would* insist on having a red and white girl and she was the only one available. Yes when mum wants it, she wants it now, bought and delivered…yesterday.

Still she was an angel in some respects. Slept the whole night through from the get go, never had a problem with house training and formed a somewhat unhealthy obsession with out cat Jack. Mind you he is the sexiest ball of black flub I’ve ever encountered so I can’t really blame her.
The first incident I can remember was her puppy pen. We dedicated the whole top of the garden to it and cemented a pole into place to hold the gate. Now that’s all well an good until…the pup is no longer a pup and the damn pole won’t come out of the ground. So what does my brilliantly minded father do? He taught her to attack the pole and “pole-dance” around it. Ha ha. Very funny dad. Especially picking out splinters from the dogs teeth. -_- Mind you she did whittler it down in the end.

Moving on that was but the first of her antics my father loving brought out in her. Oh yes. Mind you he was aided by her natural…well I’d say psychotic-ness but it just doesn’t really do her justice. Let me just say he breeder did one heck of a job keeping mum away from us when we viewed the pups (we’d met her beforehand though). She loves water and likes to fight it (seriously she can empty a full childrens plastic paddling pool in under 5 minutes), anything you tap is obviously up for eating whether its cardboard boxes, the pole used to open the blind in the kitchen, builders helmets, plastic tub connectors, pond pumps. You name it she’ll try and eat it.

Despite this I love the fluffy butted weirdo. We do both BFA and Crufts Flyball with her (I’ll explain that is people like later on), agility and obedience (going in for her gold good citizens award next week). She brings a smile to our faces each and every day, whether its cause she’s being a freak or for once she’s being loving (which happens..oh once every purple moon?)

And without further ado I shall give you so many pictures you will be sick of the sight of her *grins*. You have been warned. (excuse the size of some of these)

Yeah I'm wearing a dress. I'm a collie. Whats *your* excuse?!



Dude don't even think of touching that ball.



Love is a pipe connector daddy brought me home from work.



Lord. Why did you send me to a family of idiots?



Spalsh me again, again I say!
