I love Aussie Shepherds! I had a mix that was black with white accents. He was the smartest dog and one of my heart dogs (who am I kidding? they are all heart dogs to me!). The only thing I didn't like was coat maintenance. They need constant brushing or you are in for a huge mess! His name was Jake as in the song by Pirates of the Mississippi: Feed Jake. If I get to Michigan, I will certainly stop and say hi to both of you!
My best friend, right through it all.
If I die before I wake....
I had an Aussie Shepherd/Border collie mix named after the same song when I was in kindergarten. He didn't live very long... We lived on a pretty busy road and yeah
Dad never put up the Dog Run. My Mom loved that dog though
Aussie Shepherds are a Great breed. Satie Vae is half Aussie and half Blue Heeler. I don't know how I would get through without her. She's worth the mountains of fur we pull out every other season, it's those dual layers... I've been having a weird dizzy/really off balance feeling today, and I think Satie can tell... She's been shadowing me since I got home around 11 and just wants to be with me whenever she can. Even when my Mom got home from work, after 15 minutes she was right there. Which is odd.
As long as whatever it is doesn't kill me in the next week I'm going to get it checked out if it doesn't get any better... or wait another week
