I appreciate it!
It was so nice meeting you and your gang.
Gracie enjoyed hanging out with Callie. Maybe next year Duncan will be brave enough to play with the big dogs.
 
Duncan came and saw Sca a bunch. At first Sca was a bit stand offish (surprised me as he likes everyone) but by the end of the day they were checking each other out. I bet in the house you would have found them sleeping in the same spot that night.

I'm surprised that I missed them checking each other out but I'm not surprised that Duncan is drawn to Sca. He really likes mellow dogs (and he's used to a tri color).
 
Duncan was pretty stealthy and would come up from under the table when I was petting Sca. If Gracie was using her incredible powers of begging (how can you resist that look) he was more out front, I think she is his security.

Usually Duncan bypasses "stealthy" and goes right for attention. I think he might have been overwhelmed by the sheer number of dogs. Gracie is definitely Duncan's security. If he's not playing with my bi-black Dharma, he's near Gracie.
Gracie has perfected her begging! Surely you noticed that she's a little too "fluffly". :wink2:
Has Sca always been so calm? He seems just so easy going. Did you do classes with him to socialize him or was he just like that?

He was calmer than usual. I think Trapp and Jasper trying to get him slowed him down a bit as whenever the horde got running they would cut him off. But he has certainly been fairly mellow and always easy going on the alpha dog front. His puppy class he was timid until he figured out they played (he is big in that). At flyball anyone that wants to run is his pal anyone that wants to grump is ignored. In general though he is passive as to 'calm' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Oe73CrJpQM he has his moments.

Oh my gosh! How can a mellow dog have so much energy?! That's hilarious. I can see where he'd be great at flyball.

Sca's review:
I counted 17 fellow Shelties and Mr Earnhardt. And it is award time

Love the awards !!! and next year we'll have to add longest sheltie, barkiest sheltie (Emma took this one over from Snap), blondest, etc.

Sca - You are not only a mellow fellow (and to think that this was your 2nd birthday !!!), you are very observant, intuitive, and the silent "type".

Love your sheep's headshots in the album.
