Fate met her match today, the human equivalent of a border collie puppy, Nikilene, The Bedlam Farm Barn Princess. We don’t call her that anymore, she is growing up, but it was a joy to see her and the puppy chase each other around the  yard, wrestle, play tug of war and shower one another with kisses.

After a half an hour, Fate was dragging her tongue off of the ground, she came into the house and went to sleep in her crate. Nikilene is much like a border collie, she runs and runs, never tires and is tough and resilient. A beautiful match.
