Because I know you are anxiously awaiting more information. I can tell that you are by the overwhelming number of responses I received to my previous post about Shasta.
I finally got a picture of her playing fetch today. This "stick" was originally twice this long. She chews at them like a beaver. This is still a little stick in her little mind.
I thought I should list her good qualities so you don't think I totally hate her. She has cute perky ears and when you talk to her she cocks her head to one side and that is cute too. She knows lots of words - breakfast, lunch, dinner, cookies, treats, popcorn, squirrel and even a few not food related - bus, kids, who's there, all of our names and bye - and of course all the usual commands. She has a cute little tail - see?
Her cute little tail led to a big discussion here at Christmas. Some members of my family thought it extraordinarily cruel to dock her tail. Some Aussies are born with little tails, the rest are docked to prevent mange. I think hers was docked but don't hold me to it. Once you have a dog with no tail, you realize what an inconvenience a tail is in a house. But I think that could be a whole post in itself. I bet you can't wait.
And she has very nice feet. See those nice white nails? They are so easy to trim because you can see the quick. That's about it for her good qualities. Hope you enjoyed it.
Coming soon: a post about Darcy.
Don't forget to check back a few posts for your chance to win a pair of new suede gloves!

Tails sure can clear a table in one swoop.....Marley was a pro at doing just that.
lol. The tail photo took me a minute to figure out. I thought it was the back of someone's head.
I miss my babies...
