Haven't posted for some time. Family illness etc.
FERGY is about half inch short of being as tall as Laddie now and is a little more aggressive than we would like. Most of that being aimed at his older brother. He even has a bark to draw Laddie's attention away from FOOD! That is usually when things get a little dicey. For being mostly Black and White we think he is beautiful with his shiny wavy hair. He prefers his enclosure for sleeping at night and if we leave for awhile and it is raining hard. When the hour hits 10:00 PM all you need do is ask him if he wants to go to bed. He will run to his bed before you can even get close. Really smart as most Shelties are. He understands human words beyond any dog we have ever had and Laddie is right up there with him. One of most amazing things they like? Get their teeth brushed and eat a complete stick of celery. We were in the yard planting flowers yesterday with them on a double ended cable leash, Oh! what fun!!!! Laddie connects a trip to Vet with a ride in the truck so we don't do that very often other than Vet. FERGY is another story. A ride in the truck means he gets to see all those interesting people and dogs in lines of traffic. Always sets up looking out the window when we are in the countryside. Any animal will create a low growl/woof. I was going to enclose a recent photo of Fergy, I guess my right to do that isn't possible.
