WORKING DOGS

For some time Ruari has wanted a dog to help with the cattle.

Janice has not.

Unfortunately, on his birthday Janice's brother George offered Ruari a free two month old  kelpie.

Good grief.

So Bob came.

He will take years of expert training.  We are not experts.

After George visited at Christmas with Bob's brother Jack, it was obvious that two working dogs required less attention than one.  They are not pets and are very energetic and too intelligent for us.

Solution:  Sam the three month old Collie/Kelpie cross

Now they entertain each other by wrestling and playing tug of war

or, are sound asleep

 They nearly obey commands and one day will probably be an asset
