Paddy, full flight and in 'get a lick' mode!
..a snippet from one of my favourite songs ..'This must be the place ..Talking Heads
"I got plenty of time
You got light in your eyes
And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money, always for love ....
For what are we
Without hope in our hearts
That someday we'll drink from God's blessed waters
And eat the fruit from the vine
I know love and fortune will be mine
Somewhere across the border
(Bruce Springsteen - Across The Border. Album: The Ghost of Tom Joad)
Paddy & Mist don't need to fetch things as they have an Elk that does that task ... here Elk is looking for the wee bit of heather stalk that went quite a way downwind when thrown

Paddy and Elk. Elk takes the cautious approach and climbs very methodically step by step .. Paddy just bounds up there .. and down

Well... it's the first week of 2023 & I'm already breaking the rules of "52 Weeks for DOGS"... because there's clearly no dog at all in this photo. Nope. Not one single canine in sight. Funny thing: I swear, just a moment earlier, there WAS a border collie running about, in plain view but then *poof*, he vanished on me! Weird. As my dog had disappeared, I had to settle with taking a picture across this perfectly empty field of winter wheat. I always like that little hill in the background.
Next week I'll post an actual photo of Flynn but for anyone new to the group: he's a 9yr old border collie, born in a barn up in Scotland, sold to a pet home as a puppy (good job too - Flynn has strong herding instincts but he also likes his home comforts & would be cross as two sticks about living in a barn forever). He came to me at nearly 2yrs old. His first owners couldn't cope anymore - Flynn's behaviour was pretty outrageous! Poor guy was sick but for a long time no-one knew: Flynn was pretty good at hiding the physical symptoms & instead, just went around biting people he lived with (never strangers, thankfully!). Took nearly a year but we finally identified & fixed Flynn's pain & have been slowly working through his behavioural issues ever since. We've had no major upsets in a long time, though I never take things for granted. Even by border collie standards Flynn's an eccentric, complicated character but he's also a sneaky little charmer... impossible to resist! In fact, Flynn's helped at least a couple of people get over their fear of dogs, which is quite a feat, given his history :)

After mankind learned how to overcome natural borders like rivers, mountains or canyons, we started to create artificial borders to lock up or lock out poor people.
