Chillin' in Pittsburgh

So, Mom finally decided I needed a blog. My name is Bisou, I am a real-deal ISSR Shiloh Shepherd. I am five years young, and, currently living in Mars, PA while my Dad is over in Afghanistan doing some human thing. I miss him, as I am his favorite and trail him around wherever he goes when he is home. I love it here, the snow suits me just fine. I am an active girl, my favorite things are training with Mom and playing with Heidi, my lovely daughter. My other occupation is following the toddler, Lucy, around as she very frequently drops and shares the snacks she aquires. Mom seems to feed her all day long, lucky thing.

Brave Chickins'

Here we are in beautiful Mayville, WI, at Grandma's farm. We passed through to say 'hi' to Baer and Grandma Patty and Grandpa Gregg before Dad deploys. I am being such a good girl learning not to eat the livestock, including chickens, goats, ducks, alpacas, oh- did I mention chickens? I am a good girl, and I love running next to the golf cart as we cruise all over the farm gardens and corn fields. Sure wish I could chase those barn cats....

My New Mistress

Mom brought her home a few weeks ago- as a new mother myself I know to be very respectful. I love the baby smells but I keep my place, I am already a wise Bisou. I am happy for another adventure and glad to have Heidi to keep me company while Mom is preoccupied with the new little one- they call her Lucy.

Merry Christmas 2006!

playin' in the woods

That is pretty much what we do, everyday. It's a dog's life.

Veteran's Day 2006

This day was magic. The Novemebr weather, Dad being home for a Veteran's Day with family- even the pipsqueak, Baer, did fine on his maiden boat ride. The beach was sublime and I showed that pup a thing or two about the surf and sand. He looks up to me, ya know.

the trails at Armstrong Atlantic University

That is where Mom goes to school. We love to hiking on the trails at the beautiful campus, they have spectacular bontanical gardens with specimens from all over the world.
