Hello everyone, my name is Chloe. I am the new girl. Actually, my “registered” name is “Crimson Chloe” so I can compete in dog working competitions. All my friends call me Chloe, though.

I came to live with Mister Tom and Eddie after Buster passed away. All I remember is one day I woke up and I was living in a dog shelter and then I met Mister Tom and Eddie. I got along really well with Eddie and Mister Tom. But, it was my Auntie Julie who told Mister Tom, “you ought to adopt Chloe RIGHT NOW!” All of a sudden, I was leaving to go live with Mister Tom and Eddie.

Things were different when I came to live with Eddie and Mister Tom. I have Eddie to play with all the time. I have my own bed to sleep in. And, there is a basket filled with toys here, too! I had to learn a whole new routine. Mister Tom enrolled me right away in a basic obedience class even though I knew some stuff already. Here at my house I practice obedience stuff first thing in the morning regularly. I also get to go to different dog clubs to meet other people pals and dog pals, oh yeah, and practice obedience, too.

You might wonder what kind of dog I am. I am an All American dog meaning I am a mixed breed. My adoption papers say I am a Smooth-coated Collie mix. I sort of have a Collie face and white stockings on my front feet just like Collies. Mister Tom says I definitely have a Collie bark.

Going forward Eddie and I will be posting to this website with OUR poetry and musings.
