Katie and Charlie This page is dedicated to two wonderful Bearded Collies - Katie and Charlie. They know and greet everyone and everyone knows them by name.

Charlie had a really rough day yesterday. He had to go to the vet for his "senior" screen. What? He still behaves like a puppy. Anyway, I think he remembers his last visit when they wacked him. He was a nervous wreck and kept trying to climb into Rick's lap. The poor doctor had trouble getting him to stand so he could be examined.

So, now Charlie has anti-anxiety pills for traumatic situations such as vet visits. That may include groomer visits too, since he doesn't much like water.

Katie here and I'm doing just fine. I love this cooler weather.

Katie here. It was a nail biter this afternoon. We’ve been waiting for the Monsoon to start and it came all at once. The wind was gusting and I thought a tree was going to fall on the house. The rain was blowing sideways and we had a lake in the backyard. Charlie and I were hiding in the bathroom. Let’s hope the monsoon is here to stay for a while to cool things off. It’s been so hot that I can’t walk after 7am.

Charlie finally got a long-overdue bath and I mean finally! We can tell it's Spring. Our tree is blooming and we are bringing in all sorts of little yellow buds into the house. Rick is having trouble keeping up. Even the housekeeper is having fits. It should be over soon. It's starting to get a little warm, so we've moved our walks top about 6 am. The breeze is cool and pavement is not hot. We noticed a lot of our friends are going earlier also.

Katie here. Went for a walk in the dark this morning. Tried to p*e 20 times but nothing happened. This was very confusing for Charlie as he usually marks over my spots and today he couldn't find them. My people have called the vet and there are signs of a bladder infection in my 2 day old lab work. First UTI I've ever had. One of my staff, Rick, is going to run to the vet's and get my medication, Amoxicillin.

No golf for Rick today. He's going to keep me company. I like that. More later.

Katie here. Well it's been a while since I last reported in. I'm not nearly as good at corresponding as some of the other Beardies, whose posts are a chuckle. The attached photos will kind of tell the story.

We've had a few frightening nights with the monsoon and Charlie and I have been trying to crawl inside our bed. I'm afraid we have made a mess of the bolster. The rip has gotten too big to patch or repair. It's a really great bed and has lasted 12 years. I was fairly new when it arrived and it was shared by Redford and me. I wish I could blame it on an intruder, but Rick has watched both of us digging for Taiwan (we're not too fond of China anymore.

Hope you all are doing well.

Katie here. I go to see Barbara every two weeks and when I come home Charlie is beside himself I smell so good. Well, I can't say the same for him! Finally today he went to have a bath and a little trim. He does smell much nicer, I am happy to report. The other benefit is that it wore him out, so he is sleeping rather than bugging me.
