Stop in for a cup of coffee

That would be so true John , but I am shepherdless .
Apologies FOG I was thinking you had got a new one. Getting this rescue pup has flooded me with memories of Hemis youth. The pup literally has no off switch and wears me out every single day. Being a Mal cross she is much smaller than Hemi I am guessing she is all but full grown now and is just over fifty pounds. She can hit my lap from about five yards away going Mach six. She just kind of ricochets off my chest and lands in my lap. She thinks she is quite clever as I try and catch my breath from the pounce. I have just now begun to train her as I was focusing on gaining her trust and building her self confidence back up. Rescue pups are always a challenge and she certainly was no different. I think she is going to end up being a great dog, but the process is a struggle right now.
