Today's assignment: Starts with D, Favorite, and Dog.
Starts with D: During a recent trip to Tennessee to visit family, we saw lots of DEER. They have a beautiful piece of property that backs up to a wooded area. The twins are my favorite.
Favorite: Of course, Gus is my favorite DOG. But today, meet Buford, the neighbor's DOG. Gus is not a fan of other pups, so when I took him out one dark morning, I failed to seen a stranger sleeping in the rocker on the porch. When he hopped down and came over to me, I felt certain I would soon be in the middle of a dog fight. Instead of barking and attacking, Gus simply walked over to Buford with his tail wagging, and the two became fast friends.
Dog: Gus was born on November 3, 2015. He is an Australian Cattle Dog a.k.a. a red heeler. I'm not sure of the date he came to live with us, but it was early in 2016. He was a frisky fella. He enjoyed chewing on house slippers, furniture legs, and basically anything he could fit into his mouth around. Lucky for him, he was too cute to get into too much trouble.
He sure loves to play and he knows the names and colors of all of his toys. If I ask for his green ball or monkey, he comes back with the correct one.
He also likes to nap.
In Oklahoma, we lived near Tishomingo where Blake Shelton's Ole Red is located. Gus is a proud member of the Dog Wall.

...those twin DEER are sweet and you have plenty of DOGS!
ReplyDeleteLike your dogs, Betty, lots of them. We mostly always had just one. Mrs J inherited a toy poodle named Katrin. Search my blog to find her. On her dying pillow she asked looking up, "please don't give my dog away." Of course we kept her.
ReplyDeleteFor several years we had two, Adi and Katrin. Forgot to say that.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable pup you were, Gus, and we both love the same Hartz squeaky balls! We see lots of deer here and they are so beautiful.
