So this is Binks

Binks is the newest addition to the Albers family. My husband and I are recently married and I convinced him (after months and months of begging) to get a dog.

We visited several breeders but in the end decided that we just couldn't afford any of the breeds we were considering (Bernese Mt Dog, Newfoundland, Collie).

Then we got the call....

Heritage Hill Collies gave me a call around mid April saying they had one puppy left and if we were interested, we could come and visit him. She also offered to sell him to us for half the price. We drove two hours to their farm and met Duncan a sable male collie puppy who was more interested in teasing the cats than playing with us. He warmed up to his pretty quickly and we fell in love. Joe didn't know it but I had taken the exact cash amount with me ( I was pretty determined). We took Duncan home with us that day.

The two hour ride home..was a long one. Duncan tried to jump out of the window a few times and threw up all over the car and when we got home he passed out for a few hours. (we were unaware of his drinking problem)

We quickly decided that the name Duncan was to refined for a naughty naughty puppy. We renamed our potty mouthed dog Binks, it just fit.

This blog is to document our daily discovers as to why Binks might have been sold for half the price.

(But we love him anyway)

Enjoy!
