Jack

This is Jacks introduction to the world.  So world meet Jack.  Jack is a Border Collie, Black Lab Mix.  When he is not biting, chewing or clawing his way into our hearts, he is sleeping or peeing.  We found Jack in the great state of Wyoming.  His old owners were selling him at Fort Bridger like common cattle dogs. We stumbled across Jack's small family on the way to the bathroom, and after holding him, he was sold. I fell in love. He had a marshmallow sized belly, probably from having been snacking on them all afternoon. We went back to camp and talked everyone into the idea of buying Jack. Jack is eight weeks old, and growing like weed. He came with his first set of shots and puppy teeth intact.

Where Jack likes to ride, the worst spot possible actually, right by the drivers feet

The CRATE!!!!

After a long day of being  a puppy
We were lucky he is so smart. He picked up very fast on bathroom time being outside. We are now working on sitting, and crate training, and it makes my heart sing to find him sleeping in there without command.  Placing his food and water dishes and every toy he has accumulated in there are the main help.  His crate is large for a puppy, but we're hoping it will also fit him when he grows into his massive lab paws.
