large dog immediately recognizable by its long, thick, shaggy gray and white coat
originated from very old pastoral type dogs of England
first seen in artwork from the 1700’s
described as never being nervous or aggressive
can tend to be ‘couch potatoes’ (The Kennel Club said that, not me!)
intelligent, sociable and adaptable
may try to herd people or objects
famous sheepdogs:
Tiny, pet of Franklin D. Roosevelt
Martha, pet of Paul McCartney and of the Beatles song Martha My Dear
Sam Sheepdog from the Looney Tunes cartoons
Barkley from Sesame Street
The Colonel from 101 Dalmations
but my favorite sheepdog…
Prudence!
who could resist this face??
Alexis, my talented friend of Jac o’ lyn Murphy, knows Pru well
The Hound here is avidly ignoring me until I stop speaking of Prudence
