Yep she's the one to the left 😆
Most loyal dog I've ever seen..hands down
Best dog I've ever had hands down. Smarter than most of my friends. That's not saying much but…… can literally teach him within minutes how to do a new trick or obey a command. Yes, he's Velcro.
The thing that most amazes me is not that they are incredibly smart, but they can routinely get kicked in the head by cattle, go flying, get back up completely unphased to keep chasing them and still be smarter than a lot of people.
Fact: For the right person, their first cattle dog will never be their last cattle dog.
Their smarter than YOU ! They just won't tell you !! 😄😄
