Aussie's For Life

by Jerry Balmes
(Westport Washington)


This is Aussie our 7 y.o. female. She was born on the 4th of July in Westport Washington.

Ever since she was a pup Aussie loves to cuddle; when I wake up in the morning if she is in the other rooms she will come in and greet me by laying on top of me.

When we closed our business and were moving into a residential house, she was accidentally left out side and she had only been to the route from my store to the new house about 3 times. She knew how to find me and ran over 1 mile to come find me.

She is loyal; loves everybody especially kids and enjoys going down to the ocean and retrieving a stick that has been thrown in the water (any time of the year).

She is very jealous, if I get down on the floor and start "loving" on Tigger our rescue dog, she will come in between myself and Tigger and nudge him out of the way.

She has been a true blessing and I wouldn't get any other breed.
