dog whispers ~

hey everybody ~

i’ve been happily committed to wedding decorations, but in the meantime… perhaps you will indulge me in a little bit of a “canine update” on the blog today! {yup ~ we’ve gone to the dogs!} lol

this is sweet savannah.  our little shetland sheepdog dog is a funny girl, too. she’s even quite quirky! and very athletic, as well as quite sweet-tempered.  she also watches over georgia ~ very much like a big sister, except she’s half her size!  ain’t that the way it goes?!  but she also doesn’t take anything from her either!  so ~ don’t mess with this sweet little toughie!  

and they have convos all the time!  it’s pretty funny to watch.  and i don’t think georgia would be a very happy dog without another very intelligent dog to keep her company. that’s just how it is with these super smart, working breeds… they either need a job, or someone to entertain them! 

and of course… who can resist captioning these photos with anything but “dog whispers!” “you take the sheep on the west, and i’ll go to the east… we’ll meet there, and then herd ’em all into the pens, and those sheep won’t even know what happened until the farmer shuts the gate!”

and one of my favorite pics of georgia ~ a memory from the ‘early days’ of her puppyhood.  {eating all the flowers she could find}.  yeah… that is still true, and why we don’t have any flowers in our yard anymore. {saves me alot of time and money!} lol

she is still just as “nutso” as ever about her pool… and the same is true when it comes to running water of any kind!  {border collie tunnel vision/psycho}!

 and crazy about her ball… which we need to replace!

 and she is very sweet, but she’s not into petting so much… all she really wants is action, and lots of it.  that’s what it takes for this big girl bc.  and she is quite large for a border collie.  very long-legged, and unlike the border collie reputation for shyness… not much of that in her either.

 yeah… see that empty planter?  it’s forlorn, but that’s the way it goes.  {you don’t bring me flowers anymore!?”} that’s just part of the package deal when you have two {good} dogs like georgia and savannah.  as you can see, georgia gets the ball, and savannah herds her back!

 “did you say treats?” 

 these two are fun together, & we love ’em!  well, thanks for taggin’ along today ~ and bless your day!

  1. Well, I'm way behind reading posts…so glad I started with yours today…you know how much I love DOGS!!!! Sweeties for sure!!! Great pics

  2. They are beautiful Leslie! I hope to have a Sheltie someday – they are so beautiful and such smart animals 🙂

  3. Back when… one dog seemed enough but two dogs do entertain one another. We have a day worker (border collie) and an evening worker (Great Pyrenees). 🙂
