Oh my goodness. I have your dogs twin. She's called Mouse and she loves hiking around the lakes and the peak district.

That's nice, we don't meet many other rough collies :) Mine is called Twinkle; She's a bit of a Princess :D she doesn't like to get wet or muddy if she can help it which is good for me as there's less cleaning! having said that she will follow us anywhere :)

I was raised on a small dairy farm with Shepherd/Collie mixes in the U.S.. I have remained a big dog person my entire life. I favor Working Dogs but have rescued several that weren't:)

I am several years into retirement -- rescuing young dogs these days is was not what I wanted to do but somehow that's what I ended up with:)

Rottweiler's own the dog part of my soul. I have lost three to cancer over the years and never wanted to go thru that again --- then I got a phone call from a State Highway Patrol friend --

Freyja-the-Spoiled-Rottenweiler was 21 months when my friend "hooked me up" with her last December:). She was in a great home but their circumstances changed. Marvelously, her tail is still in tact and what a tail it is, lol

My Catahoula/mix is a shelter dog. He is coming five years, I brought him home as a yearling. He was thrilled to get out of "prison" and adjusted quickly, unlike Freyja who had a great home and is still trying to figure out what happened.

Catahoulas are considered working dogs and were first used in the SE U.S. To hunt wild boar. They also make good herding dogs.

Their foundation history is not clear but they were supposed to have been bred more for temperament than looks:).

Sheldon is very loyal and very smart but has always been a sad-no-sense-of-humor dog, and he is petrified of thunder storms. He is a worrier and I worry that he has had a gray "age muzzle" since he was four.

They check fences and other stuff just about every day on our farm (I don't walk anywhere, I ride the 4-wheeler:). Pouring rain is about all that keeps me from taking them out.

Ooh, Moobil, what a big hunk of handsomeness!

With pusscat on box rest (had lipomas removed yesterday and was described as a 'good dog' by the vet!!), I took Bear on a 'proper' walk in the woods. He motorbikes round, absolutely mad! Mostly I wanted the bluebells in the picture. 😃

We haven't been having many adventures..... We have been working very hard on a certain long dog's recall so he finally got to play with his sister on a walk recently (no action photos as I was too busy watching them like a hawk)
