Huh! I recently met another dog named Hazel, and a goat! I thought I was being so clever with that name.
Mini Australian Shepherd. Best dog I ever had, and I've had quite a few. One thing she does not do well, is retrieve. Inside, all good. Outside, she's off into the woods. Hopefully not with a toy in her mouth, because I will never see that toy again.
I'm really glad to hear your knee is doing so well. I was pretty worried, it was very extreme at first.
That's right. Every time you tell me she's a mini Australian I'm like, that's right.
This one either. First GSD I've ever had or even known that won't retrieve. Will not. True story—she once swam the frisbee out to the middle of the lake, spit it out and swam back. That really happened.
You so love your dog like I do. Dog people are cool. Have any other animals?
Two cats, one quirky calico named Patches (I inherited her) and one once-upon-a-time feral cat, who chose me to tame him, named Freddy. When my kids were young, we had just about every other common pet a person can have. I could not keep aquatics alive, inside or out. But mammals do well with me.
haha I can see the frisbee out there floating on the lake.
