Dogs

I've been very sick this past week with what I like to call "The Plague".  The doctor said "Bronchitis and Sinus Infection" - any rate I've been doing the bare minimum in regards to the horses so I thought I would entertain the masses with some dog pictures.

This past weekend as sick as I was I still had to go to Michigan and pick up the rest of my moms things to go through.  I brought home one of the rough collies for a few months.

I took him to the barn Monday morning when I went to clean stalls.  He'd never seen a horse before and BO's Thoroughbred, Nan, showed an interest in him.  Meaning she didn't snort, run or even blow but followed us as we walked to and from the barn in front of her paddock.

Shade would get distracted and she'd drop her head back down to his level.  I caught him licking her.. 

Shade is such a people dog.  If he can't follow me everywhere I go, he watches.  His color is blue merle, he's almost 8 years old.

It's easy to see why he was my moms favorite.  

And this little girl is our rescue Libby.  We've had her for about 6 years now and she shares the couch with me about 98% of the time.  I snapped this picture when I was home sick for the third day in a row.  She seems pretty annoyed that she's having to share her couch so much.
