[vanilla bean.]

Owner: vanilla bean.
Name: Thalia
Gender: Female
Personality:

Thalia's piercing eyes of ice miss nothing, as she's constantly taking in and evaluating all that's going on around her. She's not much for chit-chat, and would much prefer to quietly observe than make waves. Though she can come off as intimidating at first despite her smaller stature, she's very sweet around her loved ones. Being so observant means she always knows just when to jump in to help, as well as exactly what they need.

Owner: drift.
Name: Aztec
Gender: male
Personality: 105 words
At just a glimpse you'd be able to tell that this collie was hiding something from you.
Often staying to the shadows and small crevices, Aztec isn't the first dog you'd look for
to confide in. Despite all this, he's the first to step forward to try something new and learn,
always looking for opportunities to solve a problem or make a discovery. Aztec may rub you
as high strung, or possibly intense with his ghostly stare and quiet way of moving about, but
he's the most intuitive creature in the kennels, often sought out to help with something rather difficult
or puzzling to others.

[waverly,]

Owner: vinson
Name: Suzzallo’s Flight of Fancy ‘Fiorella’
Gender: female
Personality: Fiorella has always been independent, but as she grew up she isolated herself from other collies. She often enjoys human connection and relationships more than she enjoys being around other collies, mostly because she needs deep intellectual stimulation that she feels other dogs can’t give to her. Humans were able to provide her with puzzles and other toys while her littermates just wanted to play rough and tumble. Fiorella admires herself and her intellect, and doesn’t mind not having connections with her own species because of the sport that the humans have given her- herding. She has to strategize and think about her movements and the movements of her stock, her goats, while also paying attention to her shepherd’s commands. Fiorella is at her happiest when she’s herding, and can’t imagine her life if she hadn’t found her passion. (139)
