Had some car trouble this morning & had to take off from work. While waiting for the neessary repairs to be performed on the vehicle, we took the Presto Dog canines out in the Phunny Pharm pasture land, had some fun and took pictures of our pack at play.

Here's a straight-on shot of li'l Maggie, our Sheltie show dog:

Lyric, our senior Sheltie at nine years of age, smiles mischieviously as she tries to hide under a folding chair:

Just plain Declan, our alpha dog:

Drinking time at the communal trough:

Dougie, our tri-color Collie, hot on the trail of a night-time visitor:

Lily with a ballie in her mouth, accompanying the Presto Dog bride on one of those infamous "clean up" missions:

Another picture of Maggie. in this one, she's waiting for me to kick the ball that's in front of her so she can chase it, bring it back to me & get me to kick it again...and again...and again:

Maggie & Lily resting in the shade of our propane tank after running around like crazy:



(BTW, that's a set of halogen lights between the two dogs that we sometimes use to illuminate the area when it's dark out.)

Here's Dougie trudging up the hill after chasing a bird¹ that happened to fly overhead:


¹ Birds at the Presto Dog Phunny Pharm are called "air space violators." Once we announce their presence Dougie scans the sky in an attempt to spot them. If he sees 'em, he'll give chase. Our mantra when he does this is: "Watch the skies...keep watching tthe skies." Anyone remember the movie that line came from? Hint: James Arness who would later portray lawman Matt Dillon in Gunsmoke fame starred in it.
