Thats what sheep dogs do. | |

Cant imagine either of them being stuck in suburbia Working dogs love to work....its in their blood Not something they have to do...its what they love to do
Not a drop of poetry in me Got a lot of things to DO right now So I will DO just that ;) | |

alway a dopey look about her head tilt and one ear up... and one down *grins* ...always did love those dogs with that one "bad" ear
is that a bad ear, or a good one looking like a confused dog...but an understood one | |

curly sue or surrley que depending on her mood
I could almost see the changing expessions.....lol
brittle crackle fingertips on frosted keys herald return of stark hoary winter phase and the ways the days creep through the haze to the grinding rhythm of the birthing pangs of seasons trying desperately to turn and greet the sun
