Getting another Sheltie Sat.

And here's Tigger. Feel free to make this a picture. I never can.

I took Tigger on ONE pass through the house and the 2nd time around, SHE tooke ME! lol

I saw the most amazing thing I have ever seen today. Really.

My sheltie, Scotty, is the one I was worrying about as to whether or not he would accept her and if he would know she wasn't normal.

When we first introduced them, Scotty sniffed her from stem to stern....and here's the amazing part....he stuck his nose so close to each one of her eyes that she closed them. He SNIFFED her eyes. Almost like he could SNIFF her blindness! His tail wagged and she was ok with him.

Rascal, my sheltie/pom mix, was a little too rambunctious for her this evening. It was a big day for her today, being outside in the booth all day with people coming and going. And then riding an hour to a new home with new people and new critters. Am hoping tomorrow will be better for those 2.

I have heard of dogs that can sniff tumors....I don't know. Dogs continually amaze me.

Thanks for fixing the pic. I'm just SO pic challenged here.

When rescue got Tigger, she had been shaved. Her coat was starting to grow out and it was just awful!!!!!! I was delighted to see that it came back just fine.

Aw, bless you and your husband for your hearts!!

I totally hear you about being a keeper mom. I've gotten lots of horses that I've taken in and bought to train and sell... Only one made it out. The rest are all still with me. And always will be, forever.

She looks like a lovely girl!
