Ally

 

Skogstrollet`s 2 Madam Mistral (Ally) is born 27.february 1999 in a place called Biri in Lillehamer city in Norway.

Her breed is called Australian Shepherd, an American herding dog.

Ally is very friendly and will make friends with everyone that likes her. She is trained in obedience, rally-obedience, and agility.

Mostly its me that must stop and take a break from the training, Ally could go on for a longer time.

 

When we are outside walking and someone passes me and says hi Ally will start a fuss, it seems like she also want to say hi. And if she sees anyone smiling towards her, she gets really worked up. Expect she gets so happy when she sees them smiling that she just have to tell them that she likes them. So it gets quit noisy on our walks sometimes, people think that is charming with her talking so they smile more.

Ally barks when people walks in our drive way, this is not always to warn people off. She recognizes if it’s a known person that is coming and in her way she greets them hello, and if she is able she gives them a kiss to.

These days Ally has another task to and it is that she have to watch over Carmen. She washes her, and if Carmen is not laying still, she just puts her paw down on her.

And when it’s feeding time she is always willing to finish Carmen`s dish too (yes Ally really likes food).

The year 2006 have been a quiet year for Ally because I have been a several times in and out of hospital, this is something we hope will be better so we can train more and maybe join a competes ion  in year 2007.

Ally will turn 8 in February, and she is in very good shape for her age and we hope she will stay this way for many years more.

From May 2004 to April 2006 Ally were the only dog here in our household, so when we got Carmen we faired jalousie but luckily Ally proved us wrong.

 It is so cute to watch Ally taking care of Carmen, how she washes her and looks after her.

Maybe Ally lets Carmen stay longer in her puppy stage because Carmen has been sick for so long?
