I'll tell the dogs you said that, Diana. Sweet, definitely, but not

always obedient. They tend to think for themselves sometimes...

The Sheltie was. She would keep my children in the back yard. I didn't train her

to do that. She just knew that I didn't want them going toward the street and

herded them away from it. She always knew when our car was approaching within

two miles of home. She would lie on the back floor until we were near home and

then sat up and wagged her tail. She gave us fifteen years of love. My mother

referred to her as humble. Golly, now I'm getting teary.

I met my son's girlfriend's corgi on Monday. It is extremely

friendly. My face was washed repeatedly, which was my own fault for

putting my face within reach. I'm told he will herd people and

critters but I didn't get to see that. He was a high energyy sweetie.

I'm hoping to make him some vegetarian dog treats real soon now. He

has agreed to taste test a couple of recipes. ;-)
