Champ

Happy Tails Update!!! Hello, My name is Lacey and I wanted to send an update on my best friend Champ who was adopted from Come Bye Border Collie Rescue through Gina in December 2010. My email is prompted because Champ turns 11 on 09/16. Champ competed in agility for a few years after his adoption. Agility helped Champ and I bond, it was most valuable for Champ as it built his confidence and was a great outlet for nervous energy. Champ has now retired from agility. Champ loves long walks in the neighborhood and especially on the bike path where he can go off leash when other humans aren't around. He has EXCELLENT recall and stays close while he independently explores the area. Champ also adores the balls he plays with in the back yard. Occasionally a ball will join us on our walks - we get a lot of smiles when Champ carries his ball around. In 2013 Champ and I moved to Chicago, and when I purchased a home in the suburbs it was important that Champ have his own special place. In our home, Champ has his own bedroom with sliding doors to a large deck and fenced back yard. When Champ tires from playing with his ball he will lounge on the deck and monitor the backyard. Finally, it is easy to forget that Champ came to us with Addison's Disease. His Addison's has been managed well with a daily steroid and regular injections I give him at home. I look forward to many more miles and days with Champ as we go forward. I am immensely grateful to Champ's foster (Gina). Gina has a huge heart and accepts all dogs and loves them as if she couldn't possible love anything more. Thank you Gina and thank you Come Bye Border Collie Rescue - I love Champ! Thanks for sharing Lacey :)
