One of my Lhasas was named Oscar the Grouch. He didn't like being bothered when he went in his crate. The girls were like teddy bears, the kids carted them all over the house and put costumes on them.

My mother made my Daisy a U of F Gator bandana that she didn't mind wearing. Hope I can find that picture again. I saw it a few days ago but on which computer where is the question.

We were gifted with Daisy by a family that had him for their 3 year old son. The day he held her over his head and spun her around and around and then gave her a body slam we got her. I had been fixing something on his mother's computer and Ma said if you ever don't want that pooch I'd like her... A couple days later we got the phone call to come get her.

I don't remember the name of the breed only that they are quite large and herd poultry quite well. I've watched them work around chickens, ducks, and geese. They are protectors of the flocks.

I watched a medium sized herding dog work ducks at a Scottish event some years ago. There was a mini covered wagon with a ramp I think going up into it. Three ducks were in the arena and the dogs jog was to on her own herd the ducks into the wagon. I don't know who was having the most fun, the dog or the ducks.

I bet that was fun to watch. Im trying to remember the breed of dog that protects herds.

There are more than one. That same dog I think I've seen working cattle.

I think this is what the dog looked like. Can be wrong but same general size and colors.

these are very popular here. They like to wander off and the shelters are full of them
