Opening up your home to a new family member is a huge opportunity for change and growth. Recently we welcomed Blue Sage (Sage for short) into our home and now we are starting the process of understanding how to live with each other. Sage is a wonderful collie pup with striking makings, a noble spirit and stunning eyes, one brown and one blue. He is only four months old but is a calm and quiet pup that is happy to play with the toys we have for him and lie close to his human and canine companions.
Yesterday we went on a wonderful hike and we were able to let him of the leash to run and play with Sophie our other dog. The mellow pup that seemed almost melancholy that morning was replaced by a rambunctious ball of fluff climbing rocks and bounding up and down the hillside on the heals of his new “big” sister.
It was quite a sight to see Sophie, a Chihuahua cross, keeping Sage in line and leading the way for him.
I feel very blessed to have this new family member in our lives. Already he is teaching us the lesson of patience and a calm tone as he not the kind of puppy that you could raise your voice to. His gentle nature requires a soft but firm tone with lots of love and a respect of his space.
Thank you Sage for coming into our family and for teaching us to stay flexible in our thoughts and actions. We love you!
