A stray Border Collie and an old Lab mix
It was so nice to get back to walking shelter dogs after 5 weeks on the East Coast of the U.S. without a dog. Cash,my Aussie shepherd, and I walked Daddy Long Legs, the older black lab. I then played with the male 2 year oldish Border Collie who has gone unclaimed at the shelter for a few days and if no one claims him will be available for adoption. He was a nice fellow who really enjoyed playing fetch with his tennis ball. He was even pretty smart in catching on when I tried to trick him by fake throwing the ball in different directions. For more information on either of these dogs contact http://www.humanesocietyofthepalouse.org/index.html

Hope that little border collie and Daddy Long Legs find a good home. After spending nearly two years with our little Rowdy dog, a border collie (mostly), I don't think I could ever be without one. I was teaching him how to eat thimbleberries of the bushes this morning...he seemed to like them. Welcome back, I bet Cash missed you.
ReplyDeleteHi Mr. H, I just love the herding breeds. It's nice to be home, I can't take the hectic lifestyle of the East Coast any longer, I was just never cut out for it. I love the thimble berries and service berries this time of year. Interesting info on your last blog post about the vitamin content of purslane and other plants. Cash was happy to see me, and my husband took good care of the dogs while I was gone, but Cash did have a few dreadlocks, I'm still detangling. Happy gardening, thanks for visiting
ReplyDeleteThought this was kind of neat - http://www.cdapress.com/news/local_news/article_4220c439-edf3-57cd-bf4b-836f37f0d7b2.html
ReplyDeleteThat's what I love about Idaho, lots of people bring their dogs with them everywhere. In N.J. you don't see that so much. I'm so glad to be home, thanks for the link
