Rocco hasn't been posing much lately, and that's mostly because he has "enjoyed his life too much". For example last weekend when we went for a walk to a bog, before we even got to the boardwalk, he had a bathing in ditch. The bog ditch of course has a lot of bog peat in water and so Rocco didn't look very blue merle after coming out. And that's not exactly desirable in order to get a good sheltie-photo. The usual mud comes out of his coat easily, just let him dry a little and it's possible to plant a flower to the place he was just sleeping but dog is clean again :o). But the peat was still in his coat today, so I found he had deserved a very comprehensive grooming. Lucky was very helpful :o) steeling my tools to save his friend:
But still Rocco donated a lot of hair to my dog-hair-jacket-to-be foundation :o) and looked very good after that:
Even Lucky cooperated for a second - with the help of dryfood pieces between his legs.
But we need new picture for homepage and it's impossible to take it in one second. So I asked daddy to catch Lucky and bring him back. Result was, that both Shelties escaped from Sheepdog-catcher and daddy brought me the only he could catch:o) :
