I Love All My Six Dogs

I do, I love all my dogs. This pictures is not of my dogs, though! LOL mostly the dogs here are Marie’s dogs when we went to visit a couple of weeks ago and looked at property. Tatum is in this picture, she’s the big smooth collie. Oh yes, big compared to most of Marie’s dogs, LOL.

But I do love all my dogs and you know what? I am no longer embarrased by having six dogs. In fact, yes, I’d add number seven if the right puppy comes along, hopefully a Danish Swedish Farmdog!

All my dogs have great, unique personalities.  We have a nice calm house even though we have six dogs and they are all herding dogs and they love to bark. Still, I absolutely love knowing each of them as individuals.  And my life would be emptier and bleaker if I didn’t have each and every one of them in my life.

Our house may be small, but my dogs get to do a lot of things. Flyball, agility, obedience, and mybe more in the future. And my husband takes the older dogs to the park so they get exercise too, that they need.

So no, even though maybe heated mattress pads would benefit the older dogs, I love each and every one of them and am not worried that we have so many. I wouldn’t give any of them up for ten million dollars.  They are my passion, my life, and I think they all have very good, full lives.  I am glad we have all the dogs we have. Though much of the time I feel like I need more time to give them all, I just have to sit and relax and realize they all have good lives, and I am so lucky to have them all!

   I have to ask – what do you as a trainer think of the invisible fences for dogs? My husband and I are considering this, I fear hurting the dogs, he fears it just not working. But after talking to an invisible fence brand guy, I’m thinking it may actually work, and be a good thing.

      A regular fence is much safer and it doesn’t cause your dog any pain!! Why would you want to shock your dog??

   I agree, I love all my animals too. I have 6 birds and 2 dogs. That’s not too many, I want more!!

   coat is most assuredly not a “proper” Sheltie coat — you know, harsh outer layer to repel the rain and snow, dense inner coat to protect against the cold. It’s soft as down and a real pleasure to nuzzle… Our friend Cynthia waschatting recentlyabout how she loves all of her six dogs and cherishes each one’s individual personalities. Well, I don’t have the privilege of having a crew comprising only (or almost only) our own dogs. We have the problem of high turnover. And, yet, there are dogs that stand o
