Abbey had the name chose before we even found a dog. She was so proud of herself, and even her big sister liked it. That is probably why she was so proud, it's not often Rylee takes Abbey's side. LOL!
For those of you that do not know our past year. We have lost 2 of our favorite red heelers. Ace, was run over on the highway at the end of May last year; while Ryan and Rylee were near the road and saw the entire thing. Ryan had to help him with his misery. I feel for some of the things "daddy gets to do". Second, we had gotten 2 more red heelers and decided 2 was 1 too many, so we gave one to our friend and kept one. I backed over Jack, which he recovered, only to be ran over in June by our harvest crew coming down our driveway. Needless to say "daddy duty" came into action again!
There was a 3rd dog that the girls, I might have helped a little, coaxed their daddy into letting them have. He was a mutt and ended up being "annoying", for no other word comes to mind right now. He "dissappeared"! Enough Said!
So it became time that we needed another dog. I hope our bad luck has been used up. I am not sure our yard can handle another gravesite.
We found a blue heeler, in Crescent, OK. The girls and Ryan fell in love right at first sight. He already fetches, so we hope that means he has potetional! LOL! I wanted to try a different breed of dog this time, but some farm boy just doesn't believe there is another dog besides a heeler! Ha! Any way we all have fell in love with him today. Even the cat, Fluffy, has already rubbed on him!
