I Caught A Mouse!

My very own mouse!  Caught it myself.

 I caught a mouse! All by myself.  In the house.  Not too sure what to do with it.  I pawed at it a lot.

Dog Food

I'm being so good, I sat without being told.  
But I know that stuff is for me!

My mom is convinced that since I'm a carnivore (have you seen my big teeth?), that I ought to be eating meat mostly and not cereal and soy.  She also got convinced that I ought to be eating raw meat because that's what my ancestors ate all the time.  We're dogs!  We don't have opposable thumbs and we can't start a fire.  Besides, I think raw meat is delicious!  She says cooking meat denatures the proteins and destroys a lot of vitamins.  My body temperature is warmer than humans so I am protected from more pathogens than humans. I have a really short digestive system so I can't really digest grains and a lot of vegetable matter very well.  Heck, the humans can't digest the grains without a lot of processing to make them edible, so why should they be good for we canines?

Playing with my Cat Buddy

I love playing with my kitty

My mom has been really busy lately so she hasn't been playing with me as much as usual.  It started getting hot here and mom doesn't like that much either.  I think I like cool weather too.  Hey, I'm a collie!  

Introduction

Hello world.  I am Miss Dirona, a young dog.  I think I am an old farm collie of the smooth coat variety.  I came from a breeder according to my original vet records but I don't know who so my origins are a bit of a mystery.  I do know my birthday was 3/25/2010.  I am not an AKC collie as it is obvious that I have none of that Borzoi they bred into the regular collies but I am so much a collie.
