Roxy

Post by Burbage » 11th Mar, '09, 05:50

Having decided that I'm utterly insecure and need someone to worship the very dirt on my shoes... I got a pup.

Meet Roxy!

I think the correct Australian term is "rapable".

She's a border collie. Look at the size of those feet.

If she's anything like the border collie I met at a rellie's house, she's a very smart and alert dog.

Sure you don't mean "ropable", or "gropable" in Kath & Kim (who have contributed some gems to the Aussie language) speak?

Cute doglet btw.

Dunno, I heard it from the 12th man. Definitely sounds like rapable. But then in Australia there's a bit of a vowel shift.

nice dog, but I think getting a blue or red heeler might have made your PR application a lot smoother.

Dunno about a big house (as far as Roxy's concerned house = toilet at the moment anyway), but I have half an acre of garden.

aww she's gorgiss!!!

size of house and garden are not as important as amount of exercise and mental stimulation Burb can occupy her with - it's all about redirection of energy (of which BCs have a ton)!

anyone taking bets on how soon she'll try to herd the kits :P

I am sure Roxy will learn to speak and write perfect English.

She is adorable.
