I did that 8 things thing too. Only mine were gross.
Woot! We got ourselves a boatload of snow! Snow was just INVENTED for Collies! I really love playing in the snow with The Woman, especially when I knock her on her butt. She makes this great THUMP noise. I keep telling her if she would get me my own sheep she wouldn't have to freeze her butt out there with me.
Great answers. I love your wish list. I would ditto quite a few of those, # 1- 5 in particular and 7! (I don't know your Rosie, but I have a Rosie) I hope you are enjoying your trip and have a great holiday! :)
Every dog is the perfect dog, some just arent to the perfect stage yet; just ask Jackson, bet he'll tell you he's perfect :)
I should post photos and descriptions of my home made sheep cage that I use to transport a small number of Shetlands in the bed of my truck. It is made of hog panels and wire ties. It is covered with a 6' x 10' canvas tarp. I have used this cage for 3 years now. I can load the cage and tie it down by myself, but it is easier to position it with one person on each side of the truck. The cage is 6' x 4' and there is room for a couple of small bales behind it if you set them in the truck bed on end. (I do have a full sized 8 ft bed on my truck.)
Loved your post on Eight Things about you and I could relate to nearly everyone except having Grapefruit as one of your favorite foods....eck But everyone is different :)
I played. It was fun. :-)
