This is a red merle male mini Aussie (they now have their own registry as North American Shepherds, or something like that, but this particular guy will only be a bit smaller than a regular Aussie - not in the "toy" category). He is not yet named - in fact, he is not yet home, as he still needs to receive his puppy shots. We're hoping we'll be able to pick him up by the end of the week!
In other news, Penny starts classes at American K-9 Country in Amherst, NH tomorrow, to further socialize her and help her be more comfortable around new situations (as well as people and other dogs). If she can be happy instead of stressed in new situations, we will definitely do more hiking together.
I haven't done any more hiking since the rail trail; we've been hit with a heat wave, and I have no desire to hike in that. I have been working on a few puzzles in the last few weeks, in the nice air-conditioned bedroom. I need to work more with the dogs (trick training) as well as work on my guitar more! Guitar lessons have moved to Wednesday afternoons for the summer, and there are fewer of them, but they will continue nevertheless.
