pickles went to the farm today. oh, and while she was having fun and being cute…and connecting with her inner border collie…a.h. and i worked so so hard. we toiled over the earth helping our friends with their organic garlic planting for many hours. we were rewarded with a delicious meal and an offer to…come back…and….work again! (which we will do!)
but it was picky’s first day…and, well, she’s a farm dog at heart i learned:
pumpkin herder!
a.h. and i are going to be a little sore tomorrow from the farming. but we’re cool with that. pickles will sleep well tonight, tired from all the new smells. she actually went face to face with chickens and didn’t bark or anything.
herding grasshoppers!
there were some great grasshoppers there. picky and i BOTH love those!
border collie
i can’t believe what a little border collie she has become. you can she her great pumpking shot at my dogdailyphotoblog.
we’ll go back soon…

Pickles does indeed look very happy on the farm. And I hadn’t appreciated her white front legs – very striking and pretty.

Comment by Gina November 16, 2008 @ 2:15 pmShe has clearly grown up….losing that puppy fat and roundness. She’s adorable!
