About a year ago I moved out of home with my boyfriend Jack, we had just bought our first home together. My dog Sophia was too old to take with us, so we decided to get another dog. Jack often works late and plays soccer two nights a week, so we thought it would be great companionship for me to have a dog around, when I was home alone. We were originally looking to get an Australian Shepard because of their beautiful coats and nature, but then we came across Floki, a border collie, and fell in love. So we drove from Melbourne to News South Wales, about 6hrs to go collect him from a breeder. I couldn't imagine life without him now. He is my best friend, my baby, security guard, and a full time comedian. Floki is the most quirky, funny dog, I have ever met. He is a real odd ball. Honestly, he has changed my life for the better and I wouldn't have it any other way. Floki makes me feel complete and happy. I feel safe because recently, he has become very protective of the house. When I come home after a long day, he is just so happy to see me. I walk around the house doing jobs, and he is just obsessed with following me around everywhere. It's like he's my biggest fan, but honestly I'm his biggest fan. (Says, Tegan & Floki – Elwood, Australia.)
