Ally ( Skogtrollet's 2 Madame Mistral) is born 27th of February 1999 on Biri in Lillehammer, Norway. She is an Australian Shepherd, which in spite of the name comes from America.
She is a friendly dog with love for everybody who gives her a scratch. Because she is 12 years old now we only train obedience with her ,
even though she's getting old it's usually we who gets tired of training first. It seems like she could go on for hours.

Ally is quite the talker. Whenever someone says"hi", she starts"talking" to them, and if they smile at her they get a little dance in response. She certainly knows how to charm you.

Whenever someone rings the doorbell she will let them know she's there by barking, and that's not always good since we live in a vertically-split house. We think it's her way of saying welcome to people. If she is allowed she will give them a little "kiss" as well.

One of our Cavaliers, Carmen, has a kidney disease which on occasion gives her seeshers similar to those of an epileptic. This has made Ally extra protective of Carmen. She will notify us if a seesher happens while we're sleeping or in another room.
Ally is really fond of food. When the dogs are eating she will make sure the other have not left anything behind. If they don't eat up she will look at us until we give her permission to take it.
