Lily..

                        CGC

        is a border collie mix who we found through Carolina Border Collie Rescue in August 2004. 

        She was about a year and a half old at the time, and had been turned in to a shelter near Asheville NC because her owners thought she might be pregnant.  Since she was described as being a very laid-back border collie and extremely sweet I thought she might be just the dog to visit my mom's assisted living residence. Her foster mom was exactly right, and Lily is a great therapy dog and wonderful addition to our family. 

She is a perfect foil to her dog brother Kazul and is as calm as he is active (although she does herd him around when he tries to fetch a tennis ball).  Lily has learned to retrieve since she has come to live with us and she is starting to discover flyball, hopefully she'll make her debut sometime in 2005!
