As Promiced!

Hey Yous Guys,
Happy Holiday's!
And as I promised in the last post.....

Terri and I went up north and picked up "ARCHER" It was an all day road trip and we met up with the couple that transported him from Kansas City, MO. for us.

Terri and Archer's first meeting.

And a better picture in the back yard.

He is a sweet little guy and has the typical gray and black coloring of a "Cataoula"

Just look at that face!

He has defiantly found a home!
 The couple that transported him picked him up on Tuesday out side Kansas City ans was in "Alexandria" Friday night at & pm. There were about 5 or 6 other family's there to pick up dogs. The couple live in Ill. and this is what they do for a living, Transport rescued dogs all over the country. When they left Virgina that night, They were going to New Jersey to deliver more dogs and on the Maryland to spend the night and then back home for the Holiday's. And they will start more deliveries after the New Years!
They have a big Horse trailer that they converted over to a travailing Kennel and they criss-cross the country taking dogs to new homes. We were happy to spend the $150.00 for the transport to get "Archer" Home!

So that's the story of "Archer" and his trip to Terri's house. We got back a little bit before 1 AM . He is crate trained and he spent the first night at my house (every one was excited and we did not think that any of us would get any sleep if he had stayed at Terrie's) and went to Terri's the next morning.

The next post will be about "The New Chicken Project" that hopefully will take place this Friday!
Stay tuned!
Tom

  1. I've never heard of a Catahoula. What a beautiful dog! Such a sweet face too. Sounds like a good match.

    1. Leigh,
      I have been wondering if you had given up on me!? No comments for a long time!
      Catahoula's were bred in "Catahoula" Township in La to help drive cattle and Hogs out of the swamps. They are all mussel and have a very strong herding mode. Terri's other "CAT", Ellie is always trying to herd the Chickens. And they love to run!!

      The project I mentioned is depending on the weather and we have just seen the sun for the first time in 4 days! lots of rain and wind.
      If it stays dry for the next three days, the project will go off as planed!
