Back from the black hole Momma has been hiding the computer .. she caught me looking at things a young cattle dog should not ... I don't see the problem with dachshunds, my cousin PeeWee is one, and I LOVE him! I have been spending allot of time with my sister Crystyl, we love each other and she is the best cuddler I have ever known :) I have a new boyfriend, his name is Payton, and my Aunt Wendy belongs to him .. they live with us now, our house was so empty after Jo & Crystyl moved out that we asked Wendy, her husband, their 9 yr old daughter, Payton and their cat Sophie to move in with us .. now I have all these wonderful friends and a girl!! Her name is Hannah and I LLLLOOOOOVVVVEEE her! She is 10 now .. yep she had a birthday with us, and it was soooo much fun. Well .. I gotta run .. there are some kitty's to herd ... oh did I tell you I got a new cat? I will tell you all about it later. Love you!! Roobee

My Weekend
WOOO HOOOO
I showed four days this last weekend & all four days I took first place in Novice .. and on Friday, I took reserve winners bitch!!!!
That was pretty cool, & now I have this pretty purple & white ribbon to go with all my blue ribbons!!!
Momma is MOST happy with this as the dogs that showed up this year were really pretty & mature ... I am still skinny like a puppy : )
Momma likes me that way, but those silly judges like the bigger dogs over me.
So, Momma & I have been doing some chatting, and since I like conformation sooo much .. NOT.... we are going to turn our focus to rally, agility, and herding for a year or two, let me grow up some more : )
In September I am going to Canada for a long visit with my Momma Jen, I might try some conformation stuff while I am there, but my competition would be my Momma & my Sister Chip .. still pretty stiff : )
But competing with my Momma & Chip would be alot more fun!!
Love you all
Ms. Roo
P.S. Pictures will be coming!

hmmmm
My Momma got broken
Not now 16yrs ago, and she is still broken.
Every year for 16 yrs something inside Momma breaks, my brothers & sisters told me so.
Some years are worse then others, some better, this is a bad year.
Momma came home early, that means extra love and play time, but momma didn't play, she cried, she made horrible noises, I tried to tackle her make her smile make her laugh she always laughs when I wiggle on my back .. Jager got mean he barked and pushed me out of the room while he yelled at me, what did I do wrong??!!! Momma didn't stop those horrible sad noises, Jager and Luna curled up around her quietly and waited, after awhile I very cautiously joined them, Jager gave me a kiss when I quietly curled up in Momma's lap and like Jager & Luna quietly waited.
Momma got up and got in the shower ... no pets, no words, no love in her heart only pain she cried in the shower while we waited around the tub she stayed until the water got to cold and she couldn't stop the shaking. We waited quietly while she dried off, wrapped herself into her robe and took us outside. After awhile Momma curled up in bed and we curled around her, I laid with my head on her breast, quietly wishing Momma would say something, there were no more tears or noises just an unnatural quietness.
Momma finally started to pet, and with my head laid softly on her breast, Jager's head on her hip & Luna curled around her feet she told me the story of Jamie, my brother I never met.
16 yrs ago my brother Jamie was born and died, Momma loves him more then life, there was a big part of her soul ripped from her that day, and she has never learned to heal that gash.
She told me how sorry she was, she knew I was scared & worried, but to know it would all be okay.
We all quietly laid and cried all night this morning she is better not normal for awhile everybody says the craziness will continue for awhile, and will come back next year.. Jager told me

My Darling Zip
It is soooo good to hear from you again!!
I miss you sooo much!!! I wish we were near each other now .. wink wink nod nod ... its that time ; )
You would just LOVE me in my new levi shorts .. I will have to send you a picture when Momma gets the camera fixed.
I am so jealous .. you got to go to a show .. my mom is making me wait awhile ; (
But there is a conformation show in May .. a couple of them actually, I am beginning to think it may not be so bad playing pretty .. Momma always shares a cheeseburger from McDonalds with me if I do well.
When your Momma isn't lookin .. give that stuffy that looks like me a kissy poo ... and I will give my stuffy that looks like you a kissy poo ... maybe we will kiss at the same time ; )
I would LOVE to see the Zip Limbaugh page, and read your wonderful commentary! You make all this scary crazy politics stuff make sense!
My Momma keeps walking around yelling at them on tv ... she says how can she possibly vote when EVERYBODY is CRAZY and SCARY!!?!?!?!?!
She even yells at Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and those crazy NPR people too!!
Oh MY!!!
Maybe you should run ... as president you could make it law that we all have more sheep, more agility trial, and more dried sweet potato's!!!
Love you ...
Roo

An Urgent Missive to Roxy
Your toys are not safe ??!!! Can you not just take the toys away from your little brother when he steals them??!!! I take the toys from my big brother, he is a WIMP, totally under the control of the 2 legs, now my big sister, she will get all over me if I take toys from her and don’t run fast enough, just like you said she would DANG big Sisters!! As you know I only have the older brother and older sister. When you brought your baby brother to meet me, I thought he was a fun new toy and asked Momma for a baby too! I am VERY glad that the Momma was able to resist my mind control in this matter... I think it would be best to wait and see how things work out with your baby brother. I am seeing some things that make me fear for your place as the leader of your pack, after all your Momma R was holding onto that baby brother like he was more special then you … even your Daddy J seemed to think he was pretty important. Are you going to be able to maintain your control?? Are you SURE this little minion will not usurp you?? I am thinking that for the time being, you and I should suspend our hostilities and team up against this little horrible little trouble maker!!
I must go Momma C is home sick today and I here her waking up... if she caught me blogging our genius plans to take over would be ruined.
Yours, faithfully in the battle to control the 2 legs,
Ms. Roo

Look we are still alive!!
The rumors of my demise are greatly exaggerated!
My mom is a crappy blogger!
She has gotten so lazy and so busy she just never does it.
I chewed her out last night … how can my adoring fans keep tabs on me if she doesn't blog??
How am I to communicate with the DTOW(Dogs Taking Over the World ) if she isn't blogging??
How am I to communicate the next move to my underlings??
Well, I have solved this problem .. she is now under my control … I have hympnotized the Momma
( an that crazy Black & White)
Ah what peace .... have her keeping the light bulbs nicely aligned.. I got so tired of her and Grandpa rewiring the basement I had to do something
Grandpa likes me now he says I'm Okay . Really I have just decided its not worth havin Mom PO'd at me so I gave up the war.
Oops .. My hold is starting to break … I will write more when I shore up my mind control on the Mom!
Love Roo

Helloooo Everybody
It has been such a long time since I have been able to write you all!!
It has been a busy & expensive month for us, I was suppose to go Nationals.. that's big gathering of Australian Cattle Dogs, but things didn't go so well, and Mom & I ended having to stay home : (
It turned out to be a good thing, the day we were suppose to leave the furnace in our house caught fire!! We were really lucky, we have no idea when it happened, but it stayed inside the cabinet and did not burn down our house ... where the 4 legs (me included) might have been home alone when it happened!!
My neighbor has a key to the house in case something happens and the animals need to get out when the 2 legs aren't home .... but after my bad behavior with her, she is understandably afraid of me : (
Mom has cut all of our expenses to nothing ... it turns out furnaces are VERY expensive, and she has been working another job to pay for it.
This SUCKS, she isn't home as much as she use to be, which means less Momma time for all of my brothers & Sisters. Not to mention we have not been to our training class in 2 weeks now, I miss that time with Mom and have started gutting my toys to prove it : (
Ahhhh well .... now the good news ... I am all out of "cycle" now, and back to my sweet and loveable self like it never happened ... but boy do those hormones make me a mean and nasty girl : (
Mom & I am going to have to be alot more vigilant about watching me for signs of the hormonal upheaval .. Mom thinks (hopes) that now that I have experienced it once and I know what to expect now I won't get a awnry : )
My Sister Kinka got a new little sister ... I am so jealous, little sister are so much fun .. they play alot more then big sisters ... how do I know this?? Well I have a new little cousin .. she is a Boxer, and so much fun to play with ... I love her !!! She is alot smaller then me right now, so I have to be careful .. but I already know we are going to have so much fun together, because we already do!!
Ooops gotta get home .... I had to sneak out of the house and down to Momma C's Dads house to use the Internet ... and I have to head home before the kids at the elementary across the street get out for recess or they will call the dog catcher!!
Love and miss you all
Roo

Miss you all
I miss you all so much, my Momma is writing this for me .. right now I am in solitary confinement. I have been a REALLY naughty girl, I did things I shouldn't have done. Momma doesn't have the heart to talk about them now, so we will tell you when I am ungrounded.
That may be a while however : (
Then to top it off I am going through the change and becoming a woman instead of a puppy.
From the Momma :
Roo is still doing wonderfully, she is excelling in Rally classes, they have really helped her obedience as well, the extra challenge has helped her focus allot. She came into season last week and looks too adorable in her Joe Boxer briefs, (we will post a pic soon) but is having a hard time coming to grips with them ... she don't like them : )
Unfortunately, she had a little tiff with my x husband, and although like all x's he deserved a bite on the butt, Roo can not do that, so we will be seeking some serious behavior therapy.
Hmm... just had a thought... she hates her Joe Boxer briefs, and the x's name is Joe.. maybe that is why she bit his butt : )

Oh Happy Days!!
Ohhhh am I am happy happy girl!!!!
MY girl came home to me on Friday night!!
I have never been so happy or so wiggly!!! I just couldn't and still can't contain myself!!
She has been with her grandparents & aunts having adventures in Nevada without me :(
I am constantly wiggle wiggling all over and around her ... I sure hope she doesn't go away again!!
Chip .. remember when I told you kids were the best??? Well let me tell you my girl is the bestest of the best!!
Since she has been home we have played non stop .. last night we chased a deer out of our back yard ( and the neighbors too )!! It was so much fun! And when we were done we were so hot and tired .... my girl got us a frozen go gurt to share .. yummmmy!!
Then this morning she made me my very own swimming pool!! I let her come in too ... but I don't want to share with my evil black & white sister Luna .. its mine mine mine all mine .. and I will protect it from her too!!
So Sissy put me in my kennel so Luna could have a swim too .... maybe I should share with Luna : (
This morning my Sissy started putting clothes in her bag again .. she is leaving me again : (
She is going to summer camp ... without me!!!!
This time she will only be gone for 3 days though ... I think I can handle that!!
There are still no new pictures of me ... Momma hasn't fixed her camera yet : (
I keep telling her batteries are cheaper then the memories we are missing !!!
I need to run .. Sissy wants to go and play in the pool again!!! YEA!!!!
Love you all!

OI VEI... or....Holly Hannah, Mom sure looks white!!!!
Hello my beloved friends and family!!!
Allow me to start with " HA HA HA HA"!! Now that I have that out of my system let me tell you about my last week :)
You see, I have decided its my job to see what it will take to scare Momma B to death, and make her look bad!! I am not sure if I should start at the beginning of the story for me or Momma B ( evil Cattle Dog Grin ).... it all started on Fathers Day.....
Momma B took me to play with Momma C's leave it's that live with Momma C's Dad, oh I love those leave its, Stevie is cool as a cucumber, he let's me kiss him & get right in his face.. but that Rhiannon is a different story.. she starts hissing the minute we come in the house!!
Life was grand .. Momma was feeling really good, we were taking long walks every night, I was going to the school to run in the 4 soccer fields chasing Luna & Jager, and we came home to cuddle on the sofa every night... well okay so I am an attention hog and wouldn't let the other two get any lovein.. what can I say I love my belly rubbed!! Sunday night we went to bed like any other night Momma brushed Jager, Luna's & my teeth, then her own, Luna & I went to our rooms, Jager & Momma went to their room ... Jager thinks he is something special.. Momma lets him sleep in her bed all night long ... but I only get to nap with her.. she says I eat her sheep skin slippers .... and I do but so does Luna ... what is she thinking anyway..aren't we suppose to chew on yummy sheep???
Monday morning the alarm went off and Momma screamed, turns out she really hurt herself in her sleep ... Monday night we had a short walk then came home and cuddled lots. By Tuesday afternoon she could barely walk, the Dr told her no more running, no more walking .. just rest.
OH My GOSH!!!! Do you know what its like to be forced to lay on the floor & only have a little yard to run in??? That's right BORING... so I might as well find something fun to do around the house ; )
The Thursday after Fathers Day, Mamma's back was much worse! The Dr told Momma she had to stay home and rest her back. That night Momma told Brother the house HAD to be cleaned and laundry had to be done!! Of Course she still couldn't move, this meant she could only do a little of it, She sent Brother down stairs to start the laundry... but the dummy that he is .. he couldn't start the washing machine, it just wouldn't work!!!
Momma VERY carefully made her way down the stairs to try & figure out what was wrong with the washing machine ... it had no power...momma tried all the cycles, nothing ... so she checked to make sure that the washing machine was plugged in..it was hmmm...Momma traced the cord from the back of the washing machine to make sure it was the right plug.... she pulled the cord through her hand... and it stopped.. not at the plug .. it just mysteriously disappeared... " he he he, ha ha ha " I had been waiting for her to find this.. I was bored & mad we weren't playing games ...so I chewed up the power cord to the washing machine!!!
220 even...Momma freaked... Grandpa freaked... I should have been electrocuted they said .. at the very least my mouth should have been burnt .. but nope... no burnt mouths in this house!
Momma was so mad I tried to blame Luna or Jager .. but dangit they couldn't get their heads behind washing machine : (
Only me : )
Then I decided it served her right ... all that worrying she was doing about how long my legs were getting, and how I still looked like a puppy when all the others were filling out and starting to look grown up!!!
Grandpa fixed the washing machine, and doors are getting put up to keep me out of places I shouldn't be, and Momma's not so mad or scared anymore, now she just keeps saying she is stupid and not able to take care of me .. she should send me to live with Gma Jen where I will be safe...but I keep hugging her to let her know I will be a good girl now ... or will I???!!!
Oops I need to run ...Momma just pulled into the driveway, and I am suppose to be locked safely in my room .. can't have her finding out I know the com for the lock or she will get a new one!!
I love you all!!

Oops I need to run ...Momma just pulled into the driveway, and I am suppose to be locked safely in my room .. can't have her finding out I know the com for the lock or she will get a new one!!
I love you all!!

OH DEAR!!!
I just saw that it has been an entire month since I visited with all of you!
I am so sorry!!
We have been very busy, for Memorial Weekend we went to the farm for a family reunion.. can I tell you how much fun a farm is??!!
We don't have any animals : (
But we have old wheat fields that I could disappear in, motorcycles, 3 wheelers and lots of kids to chase .. well I got in trouble for that and had to spend a few time outs in my room on account of those yummy kids, but the treats on their faces were well worth it!!
Then the first weekend in June we went to the Carson City Nevada shows, and visited my family there too. My Cousin Fancy .. she put me in my place when I tried to take her toy... Jager and Luna always "let" me take theirs.. but fancy yelled at me and got in my face ... I was alot nicer to her after that.
The show was okay I guess, but on Saturday Momma went to stack me and pinched my belly .. I screamed really loud and wouldn't let the judge any where near me ... I just leaned against Momma... after all she wouldn't pinch me so it must have been that evil judge!!
Sunday was much better I showed really pretty and Momma didn't pinch my belly .. I really liked this judge and he really liked me too!!
I now have 2 2nd place ribbons & 2 1st place ribbons!!
I have to run... lots of things to do, but I will post more soon!!
Love Ms. Roo

I am the bomb!
Courtesy of Rosemary Hoffman, this is me and Mommy just before we went in the ring for the first time!
Mommy says I was the best dog there! All the others were FAT and SHORT! I was a really good girl, I stood pretty and did exactly what Mommy told me to do... even though she screwed up and told me to do all the wrong things, or forgot to tell me what I was suppose to do! But, guess what??!! Even with Mommy screwing up all the time I got 2nd Place Saturday & Sunday ..which gives my my first 2 AKC Conformation ribbons!! YEA!!!
On Sunday Mommy & I were stopped by several ACD people, they all told Mommy don't give up! Your girl is beautiful .. and she would have won if you were a better handler!
Kim & Anne checked me out good after the show .. they checked my angles, my teeth, my croup, my stance, my gait everything .. and guess what ..they said they wouldn't change anything!! Except maybe those couple of teeth I am missing .. but guess what ... I am still getting adult teeth .. 2 new ones popped out between Sunday & Wednesday, and Mommy can feel one under my gums it was just waiting for the puppy tooth above it to come out ... which it did on Tuesday! "Mommy keeps saying I knew you were going to be a late bloomer ( all her girls even Momma C are late bloomers ) But good grief your teeth too???"
I just LOOOOVE making Momma B & Momma Jen nervous .. just look at how long I am growing my legs!!!
I love & miss you Momma Jen & Daddy Shamus!! Quit worrying so much ... I am done with my legs and am working on my teeth and chest now!!
Forever yours Cowcutta's Stack 'N the Deck ... AKA Ms. RooBee

A long over due post
Hello everybody!
I know this post is long over due .. but see it has been crazy around here.
Momma B went and got herself stupid sick .. and she isn't smart enough to slow down and not make her self sicker!
Then of course I worry worry worry for her .. I didn't even want to play with the sheep yesterday .. I just wanted to hang out with Momma B.
We have been busy, we have gone herding, to obedience classes & of course conformation classes too.
As soon as Momma B gets better I will be posting more .. but right now I have to spend too much time watching her and worrying over her .. and not listening to her ; )
She will figure out that she needs to listen to me right now soon enough.
Well .. I am off .. gotta go hold the Momma B down!
See you all soon
Love Ms. Roo

The much anticipated post
Hello my adoring fans!
I know I have kept you waiting on this post ... but I wanted to give you pictures ... but Momma used the camcorder to take the pictures & they are all on VHS ... do you know how hard it is to put VHS on the net??!!
Well .. I met sheep on Saturday!
It was cool . they run around and Shauna the lady my mom sent me with actually encouraged me to chase them and I bit one on the leg just like I am suppose to, and I kept them in line and told them what to do and everything!!
Then we got to go and play in a pond on the farm ... it was so pretty and I saw a ball on the opposite shore so I just kept running and then all the sudden the ground was gone but my legs were still moving and then I was in the water & couldn't touch the bottom!
Oh my Gosh was I scarred! Then I started running in the water and realized I could swim ... swimming is cool! It was big fun! I got to chase my brother Jager & sister Luna all over the place and run really really fast .. did I tell you I love to run fast???
I left this for last .. but my sister Luna ..she is an evil Black & White border collie ... well she is a herding goddess... She and My boy JD were out herding sheep together the first time either of them saw sheep!
She was so impressive my good job was over shadowed, and very anti climatic : (
Momma says I am wonderful, and she is very happy with the way I worked and the way I listened and the way I wasn't afraid ... but nobody else had anything nice to say about me (other then how pretty I am) because they were so busy talking about how wonderful Luna is.
At first both Momma & I were a bit jealous and sad . but now we are very very happy because we know that Momma finally found the thing that makes JD & Luna the happiest.
So we will gladly take a back seat in herding to Luna & JD ... we will bark & cheer when they do well, the same way they do for me in conformation.
Why because her success is my success, and my success is her success ... that is how families work.
Jager started it, Luna cemented it, and I am the result of all their learning together, and if it hadn't been for me .. Momma would have never found Shauna, and my sister the herding goddess would have never met sheep.
I love my family .. and the love me.
Love Roo

Me My sister & MY guinea pig
This is me & my sister Luna playing with our guinea pig Smudges.
Don't worry we would never dream of hurting her! We actually groom each other!
She is very nice, and I can herd her in absence of my own sheep. Of course I have to be much gentler, cuz I love her and would never want to hurt her!
