Kobe"s Adventures My name is Kobe and I'm a Border Collie with a little bit of Kelpie.

I love to run (especially beside mum on her bike) I'm planning on joining Mum on a big adventure next year as she cycles around Australia raising money for MS Plus.

I have a story to tell you about my mum. As you're probably aware, mum had a bit of a bad MS day on Tuesday morning, so in the afternoon she just sat on the couch and binged watched a crime show. Being the good companion that I am, I jumped up on the couch and sat beside her and watched with her. I knew I would be in the doghouse if I asked for a ride. So mum eventually cooked tea and we sat down to watch ‘one more episode’. Now mum does not have the best hand eye coordination. My mouth to eye coordination is far better than hers. Anyway, while we were watching our show suddenly an insect flew by. Now I love catching flies and I'm really good at it. But before I could leap up and grab it, mum swiped her hand up and lo and behold, she caught the insect. But then she screamed and jumped off the couch. I wondered what was going on. She opened her hand and out flew a bee. I tried to find it on the couch for her but she yelled at me. We found it, put it outside. Mum washed her hand and the night continued. And then this morning, mum woke up and turned on the light and it was still dark outside, so I knew that it was too early for a ride. Mum’s finger was swollen and red and she said it hurt so she grabbed her glasses, turned on the light and she found that the sting was still in her finger. So after rummaging for a pin, she dug it out, and washed her hand. We all went back to sleep. She felt so good when we did wake up, I still got my ride this morning, so it ended happy. I'm just glad she found the Bee before I did because I don't like going to the vet.

I am not impressed. Mum bought me new shoes! They’re too cute but annoying! But the do fit better than my other ones. So right now, I’m refusing to move while I have them on! It’s a battle of the wills. We’ll see who wins!

Post Script! I won!

So mum decided that a great way to cool down today was have a bath at the local dog wash. I tried to convince her that it’d be a lot more fun if we cooled off in the campaspe river but she said it was too hot to drive there! She used some scary word like ‘being responsible adult’. So I tolerated the bath and am now happily asleep while mum watches her latest crime show binge!

Mum took me to Pink Cliffs today and I had to wear my shoes because the ground was hot and there were lots of really big ants! We discovered though that climbing rocks is not ideal in shoes! We also went to Lake Eppalock which was fun - no shoes!

Mum and I don’t do well in the heat but we have to get used to it if we are going to ride around Australia soon.

We were rewarded for our bravery with fish and Chips in the Liquid Amber forest in Heathcote. So cool I fell asleep at mum’s feet while she edited her upcoming book.

All in all a great day spent with my favorite person!

I think mum got her brain back because she cooked me treats today! They are so yummy and I’m so well behaved she gives in to my gorgeousness easily!

I made some new friends today! Abbey and Sissy are fun to hang out with!

I went for my longest ride today and I made a new friend -Whiskey! I didn’t quite make it home because I wouldn’t wear my shoes and I hurt my paw! (Mums got a plan to make them more wearable, so we’ll see how that goes). So we stopped at the Great Stupa for a rest and photos

We went for an early morning walk this morning and discovered these cliffs. It’s just up the road from home and we’ve never seen them before! Mum was a bit worried I’d fall off the edge and she’d have to rescue me but I was so well behaved!

Well Mum has a new bike. I really like it as it has two bottle holders- one for me and one for mum. I can’t do riding with her yet as I wouldn’t want to cause another fall and not be able to ride for a long time. So I’m happy to wait a couple more weeks. In the meantime, I still get to go on gorgeous walks. Today I got to go in two walks as mum lost her glove whilst photographing me! Mum said she wished I had ‘search and rescue skills’ as retracing our steps in the bush was a challenge but she (&I ) found it! 😊🚵‍♀️

I tried a new skill today - videography. Mum says I’m not very good at it as I can’t walk in a straight line and get too distracted by all the new smells and sights so she took the camera off me. I think I just need more practice and a better harness. What do you think?

Mum started listening to this book this week! She seems to be enjoying it. I don’t really care as long as she continues to take me on walks. She seems to love putting me in precarious positions for photo shoots. I guess it’s because I’m her mirror and right now she’s not allowed to do anything remotely dangerous so I get to do the fun stuff and she merely records it!
3.2 weeks till we ride again and the emotional load is more balanced

It’s two weeks since mum had her accident and broke her collarbone. So we can’t go cycling for 6 long weeks. Mum’s been struggling with pain levels so we’ve watch every ‘overcoming adversity movie’ ever made. Today we watched ‘Soul Surfer’ which was about a young girl who lost her arm in a shark attack. With renewed perspective, Mum took me for a walk in the nearby bush. It’s fun to be out but we’re both really eager to get back to riding again. Four weeks and counting….
