Mindy is one of the “big” girls.. She is always there! Never in the way.. Never intrusive. There. Watching. Figuring out stuff.
I brought Mindy to my husband for analysis. He was sitting watching the evening news in his favorite chair. It was pretty much a new situation for Mindy. She had been in the house a couple of time for pictures and other stuff but not long and never in the chair.
Here are my husband’s comments ( he is a rancher and cutting horse trainer with a Ph.D in equine reproduction..if you can imagine) :
” Awesome Full of “quiet confidence” confident about new situations.. not intimidated at all..”
He put her outside after his anlysis and she met me on the way back to the house.. I grabbed her up and she delighted me with a great big smile.. and then when I put her down she pulled at my jean pants.
A delightful, secure puppy…
who now has a new home in Oklahoma with Renee and her family. Renee’s family has a long history with English Shepherds going back several generations.. Her sister, Karen, currently raises English Shepherd and has one of Ringo’s sister as the Mom of her puppies.
Mindy is going to be the member of the Rhodes’ family and is destined to be a further Mom of some great English Shepherd pups.
great story I just received about about Mindy aka Melody.. “Gotta tell you a short story about Melody. Renee said that three different times in the past few days, the kids have been playing and *someone* got hurt and started to cry. She said that in each instance, Melody inserted herself in the middle of it and started giving everyone kisses and calmed the situation. What a SWEET puppy… and one who’s already on the job at just 10 weeks of age!! “”
