This is Patty. She is my new cow dog pup. She is half Idaho Shag and half Border Collie. When she is being good we will know her as Peppermint Patty. When she is being a little turd we will call her Cow Patty. About 2 weeks after we had to put my Bear dog down my neighbor came over with this puppy to introduce her to me. He never said a word about me taking her. He just knew I needed a companion dog and this was one that wasn't spoken for in a litter he had. This dog will be tough. When her mother was 8 months old his Border Collies put a bear up a tree. The 8 month old pup was climbing the tree trying to bite the bear. An aunt to this pup got hit full on by a train about a month ago. The train was doing about 35 mph. Dog went flying through the air. Didn't hurt the dog a bit. We have yet to hear on the condition of the train. Them Idaho Shags are tough dogs. Absolutely loyal and certainly not afraid to take hold of a cow.
