Bailey and Katy came to us as rescues. We lost Bailey in June of 2016 and Katy in November of 2022. We were blessed to have Annie join us in August of 2016. They have brought great love and joy to our immediate family and to extended family and friends. This blog will share their stories and issues related to Shelties. Some told from their perspective and others told from those that share this journey with them. Notice: This blog does have Amazon product links and Google Adsense

Mom and Dad are Off to Vote
Mom and Dad are off to help with local elections today. Dogs are not allowed to vote and we cannot even participate in getting out the vote. Now this makes no sense, Shelties are some of the best herding dogs in the world. We are made for herding people to the voting booths, but Mom says this is not exactly what the phrase means.
Sadly, this is only what Mom calls a preliminary election. The big election comes in November. This just narrows down the candidates for one of the local offices. So that means more time not devoted to ball playing or football games with Dad.

Well voting shouldnt take too long, but I agree you guys could really herd in some voters
ReplyDeleteYou'd definitely be able to sway some voters with cutie faces like that! Sorry you have to stay behind! Lay on the guilt later :)
ReplyDeleteI think you both would be great at herding people to vote! Excellent idea!
ReplyDeleteRules, rules, rules. When will people wake up and realize that dog's should be allowed everywhere?!
ReplyDeleteoh Yeah, that was a great idea! we will go for it, just set some rules so we can follow and the other Paw friends. Woof! :)

Wow, that sounded like a good idea about herding up voters by Shelties -- too bad they didn't like that idea.
ReplyDeleteI think the world would be a MUCH better place if we dogs WERE allowed to vote, don't you?
