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

Thankful Thursday: Shade
There was a considerable amount of storm damage to trees this year, so I am particularly grateful we still have shade trees in the back yard because I like to go out to the end of the yard, dig a little fresh cool dirt and enjoy a peaceful afternoon observation post. You really can supervise everything right from this spot. Dog Dad refills my hole so I can keep redigging the dirt when I need something cool and refreshing on a warm day.

Wordless Wednesday: Watching the Celtic Play Offs with Dog Dad
Last week we watched the Celtics play with Dog Dad. We were quite pleased that they won. Sadly they didn't keep winning.

The Twilight Bark
Mom's a big Disney fan so she refers to our neighborhood dog communication as the Twilight bark in honor of the 101 Dalmations. Of course we don't always wait until dark. Mom caught these pictures as we were outside enjoying a slightly cooler but sunny day when a dog sent out a his message. Of course it was mostly gossip. Contrary to what the movie leads you to believe it isn't just an emergency channel. We gossip with the best of them. Since we don't all have the chance to check pee mail frequently the neighborhood bark is a way to share the gossip.
What did the dog say you ask? Well just because we listen to the gossip doesn't mean we spread it. Really.
Do you have a bark circle where you live?

Katy's Chair Pillow
Mom has never understood it but sometimes you just need a firm pillow. While we use our soft cushy pillows, there are times we need something firmer and we know how to find them.

Friday Flowers: Rhododendrons
While Mom loves the beautiful purple flowers, don't be fooled, these bushes are havens for for all kinds of intruders.

Thankful Thursday: Robin Hood's Faire
We have been writing about our visit to the Robin's Hood Faire all week. However, we were truly thankful for the shady restful lunch tent. Sometimes you just need a little down time to rest and relax.
I found this great view under the lunch tent. I had a great view and the benefit of the shade the tent provided.
Katy and I needed a rest. We got lots of attention at the Faire. It was cold in the morning and while people normally can't resist petting us, we became convenient hand warmers. People openly admitted to wanting to pet us to warm their hands. When the day warmed up people still wanted to pet us, but it wasn't as great.
We were exhausted when we got home and badly needed a nap. We are truly thankful for such a wonderful adventure. |

Robin Hood's Faire: Watching the Shows
We had a wonderful time watching the performers. We saw Robin Hood and the Royals and wonderful musicians. Dog Dad and Mom's favorite was Shakespeare Approves. While Dog Dad is not normally a huge fan of Shakespeare he even went back for the third show, we'd missed the first one.
Shakespeare Approves was awesome. If he appears at a Renaissance Fair near you we suggest going to his show. |
