      Hi All;
      No, not the 2 legged female type, but a 4 legged male type.
  During the past month I have been visited by a pretty 15 month
  old male Australian Shepherd. I learned who the owners were and
  had taken him 2 times. Talked to the owners on Wednesday and
  they said they were not able to give him the attention he needed
  as they already have a grown Chocolate Lab and 3 small children
  at home. They had seen that the two of us had developed a pretty
  strong bond, so they asked if I would adopt him, which I eagerly
  agreed to.
      He will weigh about 50 pounds and just a little short on
  manners, which I will take the time to teach him. Still has a
  lot of puppy in him.  Will start leash training him this
  afternoon so he will be ready by time for tractor shows.
      Former owners have agreed to watch him when I go away for a
  few days where I can't take him.
      This really is on topic since he really likes being around
  the tractors and is fascinated by anything that rotates and
  loved trying to catch the snow from the snowblower.
      I have named him Bandy.

                      Gene
