Next Door Neighbor
We came across a video of the top dogs from the 2022 Westminster Kennel Club Masters the other day, and just fell in love with this dog, whose name is ‘Bee’, but whom we call ‘Next Door Neighbor’. All Shetland Sheepdogs, in our mind, are named either ‘Mommy’ or ‘Next Door Neighbor’, which is a throwback to our sweet girl, Genevieve, who was half Sheltie, half Keeshond (which is Mulder’s breed).
Anyway, if you need a smile, watch ‘Next Door Neighbor’ do her thing with SO MUCH ABSOLUTE JOY. I love her so much.

Although I don’t own a dog I used to enjoy watching those dog shows. Love Sheepdogs!

I LOVE how Bee just LEAPED into her handler’s arms to celebrate! So darned sweet!

That’s amazing. I know people who aren’t that bright, let alone agile. I love Bee.

I know, she makes me so happy every time I see her.

When my dog was young, we had a little neighbor sheltie named Shorty who lived right next door. Shorty would be waiting on my porch when I got home every night so she could play with Fred. He loved her and they wore themselves out until one day she and her people moved away without saying goodbye. Fred dragged me around and around their yard for weeks. As he aged, the only dogs he would allow in our yard was another neighborhood sheltie.

Oh dear! I can’t believe they left without saying goodbye! Of course, I don’t think it would have been any different for Fred, he wold have missed Shorty just the same and not understood. I guess he really attached, didn’t he?
