the Howdy would be indifferent. unless there were water fowl involved.

then he would go freaking bonkers

in which case we would have to explain to him he was bred for hunting rabbits, not geese or duck

heh KB's that way too. When we're on walks and we see ducks he tries really hard to convince us that if we just let him off the leash for a minute he'll go get us one of 'em.

Haha. Ya Ollie is not a huge fan of swimming, and I think he knew we were concerned about the flooding.

Not a big hunter either, but put him in a field of cattle (or children) and he'll herd them all day!

She's a killer.

I left the house for a few days & this happened...

Oh man, I'm always having to rinse off the side of the grill and anything else that is in the back yard.

It's been 3 weeks since our Snickers delivered 9 squeaky little pups. Following are some pix from last week. The basket contains 18 lbs of puppies!

Cheers!

Here's the latest addition to our family. The cats aren't amused.

Reminded me so much of KB when we first got him. This was 10 minutes after we brought him home...



Must be the shepherd.

Yep. I've learned Shepards have two speeds. Balls to the wall or Dead to the world. Not much else in between.

If you don't already know, then you'll probably get a kick out of this site..

So, I went to the butcher shop and bought a big pile of lamb. I asked the butcher for a leg bone. My dog approved. She's a small dog, just under 6 kg, and has a small head. Still, she has extremely powerful jaws and manages to disintegrate bones like these in an hour or so.

From the look on her face I suspect you just became her favorite person......
As long as you don't try to reach for that bone!

Reno found the rat in the tube at the Barn Hunt competition.

No leash... No Rulez... Just right.

Those barn hunt events look like a lot of fun. Where in Texas do compete at.

Beautiful! I have one Aussie that's brilliant off-leash, another that terrorizes children (he's the rescue–go figure).

I gotta ask, when you say terrorizes children, what does that mean?

I ask cause I have a newer rescue and he has snapped at a 3 yr old niece that did not provoke him at all. Hoping its something he grows out of?

I totally meant in a playful way. Jumping on them. It just scares any kid under five years of age. Totally harmless. Parents don't get it though, as their kids run away crying! I'm hoping I can break him, but it 's all puppy energy.


/Will always still be figuring it out/

We got really lucky with KB in that respect. He always knew how to adjust his activity level to the people around him. With little kids, he'd be really calm and gentle and let them pet him until they got in range of his tongue. With the elderly, he'd just walk up and lay his head in their lap. With teenagers... he was all "BRING IT ON!!!!"

This is mostly after walking them 4 miles and they are going straight home... I've had 5 Aussies over the years and there was only one that I could trust off-leash completely. And even then, a squirrel would get him off track in a hearbeat!

Thanks for the link

Time to get KB another swimming pool. He punched a hole in the bottom of his old one this week. Probably upgrade to a bigger one if it'll fit in the back of the car.
