Until recently, Cheyenne (the black/white on the right) and Tundra had been pen mates since they were young.  But, Cheyenne can be a bit overbearing and, a few weeks ago, Tundra just had enough.  Cheyenne spent a couple of weeks in the nursery recuperating (her injuries did not require veterinary care, just a dirt-free environment, Neosporin and antibiotics as a precaution).  When Tundra was moved to the nursery in preparation for her anticipated whelping, it was apparent that Cheyenne is not yet willing to "forgive and forget".    

Cheyenne and Apollo share a tender moment!  They have been a great pair ... both energetic and playful!  They will chase each other around the pen, wrestle for a few moments, then lay down side-by-side for a nap.  We hope to welcome the arrival of a beautiful litter of black/white puppies in April.

Cheyenne would sit for HOURS for petting ... a good-natured dog with immeasurable energy!  She has met her match with Apollo, though!

Cheyenne and Apollo attempting to become better acquainted with Gus, one of our several rescue cats.  Neither would harm him, but, it's become a bit of a game between them and the cats.  The cats will deliberately sit atop the tiers of the flower bed to "sun" themselves or casually walk along the outside of the fence, then lay down to let the dogs sniff.

Cheyenne and Apollo just enjoying a leisurely stroll in the yard.  They both have great temperaments and love attention ... the only difference between them is that Cheyenne love the water and will play in the water tub.  Apollo doesn't like the water at all!
