Here's the pinned post introduction!
Hi all! My name is Lovísa, I'm a 30 year old woman born and raised in Iceland. I am obsessed with all things dogs! Its been something I've had a special interest for since I was 5.
I used to do a lot of photography, and I'm hoping being back on tumblr will help me get back into it!
I am chronically ill and disabled (POTS, autoimmune issues, chronic pain, epilepsy) but I am also doing everything I can to combat symptoms and help myself improve.
I am AuDHD and LGBT as well!
I dont take many selfies without the dogs, so here are some with Bremsa and Moppa!

Meet Moppa! My first bearded collie, my first show dog, and then dog that let me meet so many amazing new people 🥹 She is 5 years old.
Moppa is such a baby, she loves new people but at the same time is often too scared to approach lol. This is why I retired her from shows. She just wasnt happy and enjoying it, and I'd never force it! Its just not that deep
Moppa looooves food and balls. Food is life. Ball is life. She'll do almost anything for a snack!
I don't really have any plans for her competition wise but I'd love to get an obedience title on her sometime. In the meantime we're only having fun!
She is shaved for both of our comforts 😅

Meet Bremsa! After Moppa, I knew bearded collies were my breed. I wanted a second one immediately but the timing was never right. Bremsa came into my life at such a weird time, but she has been such a blessing to my life and Moppas life.
Bremsa is a 5½ month old beardie. She is super confident, and loves people and other dogs. She is an active show dog and is really successful so far with BIS-4 baby at 4 months old and shortlisted 5th in BIS baby the next day!
Bremsa is also a total foodie. She will do anything for a snack! She is really stubborn so its a learning curve for me, I've always had really biddable dogs. She is eager to learn! Just requires a different approach.
She is a sneaky baby who likes to get into things when I'm not watching her 😅 but she has an incredible off switch. We are still getting to know each other, but we am really enjoying her company so far. She's been with us since she turned 4 months, so came home a little older. This was simply because I was (am) flaring in my chronic illness and caring for a 2 month old was not in the picture.
She is overall a really easy puppy to be honest. I really missed having 2 dogs!
