Lowri - IT'S FRIDAY! TM did not take me to the farm when she went. What is up with that? She left about 4:30 and got back to town at 6:30. She and MC are selling my yard tomorrow. I don't think I will like it if they do that. Where will I chase bunnies?
When TM came back, she was driving PR's truck and pulling a trailer. There was a bunch of stuff on it. It is all stuff that TM is going to put in my front yard tomorrow morning. She and MC plan on spending the day selling the yard. Maybe I will get some scritches.

TM Loves Me
Lowri - The Mama made me more raw food today. She made about three weeks worth. I am a very lucky dog, because I got to help her clean up! We went for a walk this afternoon so I could see all the bunnies and then this evening, we have been sitting together watching TV. I put my head in her lap and she was gently stroking my face. I love my life.
Tomorrow, Miss Ginger comes to clean the house. TM has been busy straightening up everything. The house smells so clean when Miss Ginger is done. PLUS, I get scritches!
TM's back was hurting, so she was on the floor doing some self-massage stuff. I GOT TO PRACTICE MY MASSAGE SKILLS! I walked on her, I used my elbows to dig into to sore places, I cleaned her ears...say what? Oh, cleaning ears isn't an approved massage technique. Well, I did it anyway!

I AM the Great Huntress!
Lowri - Dumb Bunnies! Let's check the score...
Today: Lowri -1, Bunnies - 0
Lifetime: Lowri - 7, Bunnies -... Well in all fairness, TM won't let me list 0 for the bunnies, because she doesn't know how many have escaped. I can answer that - NONE!
I can't believe that bunnies still try coming into MY yard. But, sure enough, when we got back to town, there was a bunny by the back fence. I charged off at a dead run. I WON! I strutted my stuff for a while. I was PUMPED! TM did eventually take it away from me. I should have hidden it better.
I have had a good week. Group 1 on Sunday, herding lambs on Monday, killing rodents on Tuesday. I am the Total Cardigan! I wonder what I should do tomorrow...

Herding Again
Lowri - I GOT TO GO HERDING! TM took me down to do chores. The lambs were in the duck arena, so TM decided to make them work. I practiced walking up, being steady and square flanks. TM was quite pleased with me. I did some Away's and Bye's where I got to go very, very fast around the lambs to lift them off the fence. They minded me, and I tried to mind TM. It was a good day!
TM let the lambs out into their field, shut the gate and then I got to help move the chickens and the rooster into the duck arena. To be fair, I helped by sitting in a strategic location. They came out of their pen and went straight into the duck arena. TM said I was very, very good.
She and PR built the chute to run the cows up to the headgate. It is SOLID. The cows will not be pushing it down. TM built a corral so they can trap the cows and then force them up the chute. It even has a nice pipe gate. Finally, they are in a position to doctor cows if they need to. I want to help with the cows, but TM says I am not allowed to herd them. They kick. Maybe some day I will get to herd them. I know I can make them mind!

The BEST DAY
Lowri - I had the best day today! But first - yesterday TM did not type my thoughts. We had gone to the dog show is Gray. I looked beautiful, but only went Best Opposite Sex. The judge could hardly take his eyes off me, but he put up a boy. Doesn't he know that GIRLS RULE???
Anyway, when we got home, TM did some work. Then after supper, PR put Aidan and Daisy out to potty. Daisy, the Peeking Knees, found a skunk! She didn't know any better, because she tried to catch it!!!! The skunk did what skunks do. Oh wow, did she STINK! PR let them in the house. TM was gagging. She grabbed me and my crate and put us in the bathroom. She didn't want me anywhere near Daisy! PR and TM gave Daisy a bath with tomato juice. I about fell over laughing this morning when I saw her. She was ORANGE!
So today we went back to the show. We had a different judge and he was properly impressed with me. I won Best of Breed! We had to stay all day long for the opportunity to go to the group place. Finally it was time for the herding breeds. I went in and strutted my stuff. The judge still loved me and I WON. I won the whole Group place, not just a piece of it! Then I had to turn around and go back into Best in Show. That is the first time I have been there! The judge thought I was beautiful, but I guess I didn't impress her too much. I did not win. I didn't even go Reserve. I will try harder next time.

Dog Shows!
Lowri - Dog show tomorrow! TM has been trying to keep me clean - yeah, good luck with THAT! I am so ready to go show my stuff. Uh oh, TM just remembered I need to get my pedicure tonight. I guess I will never get done with being beautiful. It is a tough job, but I guess it is MY job <G>
No bunny chasing until Sunday night. I can't go herding either. First thing you know, I would be muddy and then I would go to water and TM would be shrieking about my whites not being white any more. Although, I did see she brought the shampoo, so I don't know why she would care.
I will keep everyone updated about my progress this weekend. We don't show until late.

Bath Night
Lowri - I didn't get to go on a walk tonight to chase bunnies and squirrels. TM had to mow the lawn. While she was getting ready to mow, I went over to the fence and hurled insults at the two bunnies that were taunting me in the neighbor's yard. They finally left after I told them my Mom was bigger than their mom.
Not only didn't I get to go for a walk, TM has limited me to the side yard. Since tonight was bath night, she didn't want me running out into the freshly mowed yard and turning my whites that lovely fresh-mowed green.
So for my bath, I got a hot-oil bath first. TM massaged the oil into my coat. YUM. Then she used the White-on-White shampoo on my whites. While that was sitting, she shampooed the rest of me. Then I got rinsed off. TM said I was really, really dirty, so she did my whites again. Then I got toweled off. I jumped out of the tub and dashed into the hall and shook and shook. TM just laughed. Then I dried myself off by taking a carpet bath. Finally, I climbed into TM's lap. She quit laughing and shrieked. It was great <VBG>
