After 6 or 8 months I finally got a good picture of my shop dog. Her name is Shadow. We think that based on features and temperament, she is a Norwegian Sheep Dog. But she really could be just a beautiful mutt. We rescued her from a family that was a victim of a horrendous crime which I cannot discuss. She is very skiddish and hard to get close to but she follows me everywhere I go; hence the name Shadow. She was my original avatar and my current avatar. Here is the picture. I had to take about twenty photos to get one this good. She is scared of the flash.



Ain't she precious?

Very Nice dog!

My dog is an ugly Pug who I don't allow in the shop for fear of losing him in the sawdust (which he would probably eat also).

That is a beautiful dawg. Are her ears cropped or is that standard for the breed?

Actually, not cropped at all. I think based on my reading they are all like hers.

She is purdy Tracy. From your old picture, she reminded me of one of my old roommates dogs, whom they thought to be mostly besingi (sp?). But your dog looks to have longer hair. Beautiful dog and that's a very noble thing to do to give it a nice home.

Cheers,

Trent

Naw, Jeff, can't you tell? That fine animal is the rare Sawdust Setter.

Well of course she is scared of the flash! She's a shadow! What do you think happens to shadows in the light!

Yes, she's a _great_ looking dog. I hope she gets less skittish over time.
