Shyla Saturday

She watches my back while I am engrossed in photographing wildlife. As long as the animals are alive, she is totally reliable about leaving them alone (but all bets are off if it's a carcass!).


She is an amazing athlete who easily mountain bikes with me to this day. She can run like the wind.

How utterly wrong her previous owner was who said that she was "useless". Yes, keeping a puppy in a crate for the first 9 months of her life creates some psychological problems - but that owner did it anyway. I'm so glad that we invited Shyla to join our family and never looked back. In Shyla's case, love erased her past.

Happy Shyla Saturday.

  7. Shame on her previous owner. Those are the kind of people I'd like to put in a crate...for a very long time.

    Shyla is a beautiful dog and lucky to have found her way to you. Enjoy your day!

  8. USELESS................that makes my blood boil. Useless is a word I'd use to describe a subhuman who kept a puppy crated....

    Shyla darling you were a shining star from day one however, you just had to find the right (KB) light source to make you sparkle

  12. I ditto Yamini.

    Rowan is becoming more reliable with wildlife recalls (huge progress - have successfully called her off deer twice now!), but same here - all bets are off for carcasses. Not so much for snacking, but heavenly to roll in the most rancid ones!
