More on Mandy the Kuvasz

We have been having some great weather and enjoying the flowers when we are out.  I finally got some good shots of the dogs in the wildflowers of the meadow that we frequently walk in.  Usually they want to keep on going but they were tired and happy to rest in the shade for a bit.  They definitely are attached to each other now more than ever and Drake pays close attention to where Mandy is so he can follow her much of the time.  Of course, that thick German shepherd head of his often means he simply follows his nose and he wanders ahead or off course.  It is easier to get him back with Mandy because she will often go towards him and he will then turn to follow her.  Her recall is great most of the time and all she needs is a word or a quick beep (sound) only to bring her running.  After all she has to guard her wards (us.)  :-)

I have no idea what caused Mandy to sit down with the lavender and under the fence.  She came running down the hill and just plopped there.  She does seem to love the lavender that lines the driveway though.  She was going to graze on it when it first started blooming!  I know it is edible but I stopped her anyway, not sure that it  makes a good diet addition to a Kuvasz.

Hope all is well - - Rhea
