Every time I work at Petco, I take a pup with me. Last time Bob, time before Speedy. Shep and Jim were the last batch to go to Lowes Hardware. Feed store too. Bob was fantastic - nearly completely ignoring people and puppies trying to play with him, focused on me, having a grand time working the floor with me. Speedy was the same way. I adore the temperaments on these guys.
Bob helped Pow move sheep at Deep River from the front yard to back yard - but apparently we missed one. I was doing chores when I heard him force barking. Came around the corner to find him in a down, attempting to head a concrete lamb at the corner of the house. Bark. Stare at me. Stare at the lamb. Bark. Stare at me. Stare at the lamb.
I called him off. Really really funny, but what a good boy. Pow was just looking at him like he was a loon.
I have a new problem in filling the puppies pool. Malcolm has figured out how to find the hose underwater with his paws, snorkle to find it, grab it and haul it out of the pool and onto the grass for everyone to enjoy. Means that at the moment, I have a half filled pool, and reddish mudpuppies. I love that they seem to be water dogs - my careful use of the chasing the hose scenario is working, as they are increasingly willing to get wet for fun.
