Skunk roaming during daylight pegs the Rabidometer, those guys are supposed to be nocturnal

Cool story. Is a Belgian Malinois "tougher" than a GSD? I believe they are preferred for police work. Either way, impressive.

Were you able to chat with Kenny Rogers?

Border collie gets out and herds them up on the porch, reminded me of my mom's old dog, herded the neighbor's goats at my sister's house

Ha ha - love it, Tob....those herding dogs! :p

Sadly, my friend in NC lost her boy Jake. Her daughter in the photos below. Jake was born the same year as my Winkipop and both died this year. 17 year run for both. Jake lost his eyes a while back - some here may remember my posts. Run free "No Worries Jake"......

Bye Jake….

These guys are now 11. T Booker the Heeler can no longer jump up to the bed. He stands there with a sad look until a boost is offered. Bring out the frisbee though and he comes alive. Time is fleeting.

Steps or a little bench at the foot of the bed helps with the dog getting up

Sweet little angels.......please give them both kisses and hugs from me! :)

Is this the face of a killer?

The neighbors have chickens. They also have a really old, dilapidated fence, and a dog that will occasionally knock a board loose. It doesn't leave a hole big enough for him to get through, but apparently the chickens fit. A few of them got into our yard, but I didn't see them and let the dog out. I heard some squawking, ran out and got the dog, but not before she must have got to one of them. She hurt it, but didn't kill it, the neighbor kids came over and gathered the rest of them up, and I fixed the loose board on my side. The whole fence needs to be redone, but both of us have been ignoring it for years. Technically it's his fence, but it also keeps our dogs in our yard. I've considered just putting up a horse fence on this side of the yard, I did it on the other side when we got the second dog. I don't need the privacy, maybe they want it. The family that lived there before my neighbor put it up because he had a pool.

Beautiful pup that isn't (love the ears): Nature is what it is.

BTW, we have had chickens for years, laying hens and even the old Red Heeler that would kill anything that moved loved them. Barn cats as well. It is all about socialization.

When my 2 bigger dogs started having problems geting on the bed, I took it off the frame and put it on the floor. I tried the steps, but they didn't like them. Now they are happy to snooze on the bed like always.

On another note, Tilly is just shy of being 6 months. I took her to the vet today for a current weighing for heartworm and flea & tick meds. My neighbor has had our "dog car" for the last 2 weeks while her truck is getting repaired. So....Tilly got her first ride in the Porsche ! At first she was a bit tentative, riding on the floor. By the time we were coming home....she rode like a pro ! Its always nice to have a gorgeous blond riding in a sports car with you !

Glad Tilly was able to enjoy her ride in the Porsche, Matt.

"He takes his job of protecting us very seriously."

What a dumb thing to say.

How about - "Damn these dogs are much more faithful to us humans than we deserve!"

How about don't go off and leave your companion behind.....
