Dogs Rock 😆

Dogs Rock 😆

Hi @Former-Member @Faith-and-Hope @soul @Shaz51

After this mornings discussion on hot choc thread I thought I would jump in and start a dog thread here. Keen to see the different breeds people have as their special friends. My love is for scotch collies (lassie). We have 2, both live outside due to my darling being a clean freak and getting anxious about dog hair in the house. The live inside when they visit my mum occasionally and make themselves quite at home lol.

Re: Dogs Rock 😆

Your dogs must require a lot of grooming @Determined. My Mum had chihuahuas @Maggi - a short haired one and then a longed hair one.

Re: Dogs Rock 😆

Yes a lot of.grooming @soul
Unfortunately at the moment they do not get anywhere near the attention they need of deserve 😞
My darling used to spend hours on them but they get just enongh at the moment. I usually clip them short at the start of summer because we have had a lot of trouble with scrub ticks. Lost a sheltie boy a scotch girl and almost lost our current boy. Much eaiser to check them when they are clipped short.

Ticks - such little creatures but can wreak so much havoc. That must have been heartbreaking @Determined. How do your boys interact with the dogs?

This is our neighbours' dog. Such a cutie. Unfortunately ours isn't impressed with her.

How gorgeous is this photo?

Before we took our puppy home, my mother gave me a stuffed dog toy to give to the breeder so that our little one would have the scent of her mum and siblings when she came to live with us.
