The kids were more interested in going to the lake, not for the swimming, boating, fishing, as they were to see Herbie and Jocko. Good memories. Beautiful animal.
I love this story and this lucky dog felt worthy. He had a job.
The guy we use to take our mohair to for weight and shipping to Texas had one of these dogs..beautiful. One shearing season when we went their dog had a large cast of its back leg...someone shot it, but the vet dug the bullet out and the dog was getting along fine with the cast. He had a lot of property and a very large flock of Angoras. His wife is the one that taught me to skin a goat using an air compressor and razor blade. Easy to do...her husband hated skinning a goat if they found one dead in the pasture....so she had to figure out a way to do it herself..
