An English Shepherd: Sniff

Sniff

The weather picked up a bit today (hurray) and the boss decided it was safe to give the lawn a cut.

This is Chip having a sniff of the grass and me supervising him just before it was cut, obviously its a terrier thing.

What are English Shepherds ?

English Shepherds are descended from the dogs settlers took with them to North America to work on their farms from England and lowland Scotland. They were bred to be all round farm and family dogs rather than having just one job to do.

They have been recognized as a distinct breed by the UKC in the USA, since the 1930's.

Wizz is one of the dogs from the first litter to be born in England, she was born on the 3rd of November 2008. Wizz's parents Adam & Eve have been brought to the UK from the US by Jackie to reintroduce the breed to this country.
