persephone Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 'Oi' Funny looking, crazy dog ...she couldn't greet anyone without her chewed up soccerball in her mouth..she loved to hear her own voice ...and was such a good worker .! Middle aged only ..just starting to settle into seriously good thinking and being pro-active... She was chained in the best spot, under a huge pine tree, where she had been born, actually ! She always had cool sand and shelter from the cold southerlies there ..she hated a kennel ..would rip up her bedding and sleep curled up in a little 'den' she dug. Obviously this morning, a snake also found the cool sand attractive... and didn't want company. :( Oi, Oi will be very much missed , and leave a hole in the team of workers. I hope she has found her family members over the bridge , and maybe also a chewed up plastic soccer ball . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

persephone Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 Thanks folks... yes, we have multiple dogs ...but they are all individuals... she was wacky :) I will miss her carry -on About the only snakes we get here are browns ... so presumably that's what it was. There are so many watering spots around about... away from dogs ... I guess sometimes the snakes just go to the closest... just in our yard (mind you, it's an acre) there are 6 water points that the dogs hardly use .... then there are 3 troughs all within 50 mtrs of the house ... I need more guinea fowl!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
