Bijou, the Dog of the Day
Name: Bijou
Age: Ten months old
Gender: Female Breed: Rough Collie
Home: Wisconsin, USA
 
   Bijou is our gorgeous collie girl. When we adopted her from a local rescue, we learned she was the only tri-colored collie from a litter of sables and had been waiting quite a while for someone to come take her home. Because I had grown up with a female tri collie, seeing Bijou at the rescue felt like falling in love with an old friend all over again. She's very silly and playful, and she loves to herd our three cats and our five kids! She's basically a fascinating combination of both a nurturing mommy and a rambunctious sibling all at the same time. Her favorite treats are Greenies, and her favorite thing to do besides snuggling us in the evening is to find "Bijou's stick" in the yard (a long tree branch that has become her very best toy) and plop down in the yard for a long chew; she doesn't much mind if there's a foot of snow under her or if she's sitting under the hot summer sun, she simply loves her special stick! She's such a funny, sweet pup and we have loved watching her grow from a small bit of fluff into a proper young lady!
