Another use for a dog - a draught excluder, excellent!

how cruel can one be to dogs-letting the poor thing sleep in front of the door-mine hogs the front of the fireplaceand to sooth fc, the five moggies sleep snuggled up against the hound!!

Here the dog only lies behind the door to stop me getting out. He uses his big brown eyes to plead take me with you.

yours does that to does he? welcome to the club,the only door mine lies in front of is my bedroom-he rear end is in the bedroom and front half in the hallway-making sure no one else gets in i suppose

The doorway is Zeb's chosen den. He LOVES it there! And if anything is put in front of that door he paces and paces and looks at us so unhappily! So he's fine in that door.

He has a vocation, that d.o.g.

To be fair to Moo, there is a towel against the door to cut down on cold air seeping against the dog. Anyway, the dog would move elsewhere if uncomfortable. What I don't understand is what he is doing down there rather than being in Moo's lap

She's far too busy cooking up a storm to sit around with a collie on her lap mjc. It's better for the circulation to be up and moving about. Ask LT....

That's no Collie Fc !! Not a Border Collie, and I know that there are other spurious types of Collies, but not like that surely. Grrrrrrr

It's a greyhound of some sort. Certainly does not belong in the same canine group as CrofterBill's pup.

It could be Cross?

Zeb looks very comfortable! I love reading this blog, Michelle. Looks like the life of a farmer's wife in Scotland really suits you. Hugs from Lizzy's mom

Zeb is a Borzoi (spelling??) Border Collie cross and if he sat in my lap I'd die hahahaha!!! We found him a lovely big dog basket and filled it with blankets and it now sits perfectly in "his" doorway. He's a very happy pooch!

Hello Yvonne!!!! It's alway so nice to hear from you! You are such a lovely person! GOD BLESS!!

Borzoi +border collie: some cross indeed. I guess he was not a designer dog but a happenstance. So long as he is happy, not even TWS would object to him staying around a while longer, at least on your farm. As Diggy would wish, I hope your dog has been fixed. One cross is fine, but a proliferation of the Hound of the Baskervilles in Mainland Orkney would be too much to contemplate. I have ended up so far "fixing" all my dogs: a proper and just action as Mia, Pickle and FC would doubtless comment.

It's the sort of thing one agrees with wholeheartedly when applied to other animals.....

The only creatures not sorted (fixed) on this farm is me, Erlend, the cows and the bulls. Everything else is incapable of procreation!!!!

So...I traded my quiet cabin in the Alaskan woods for the howling winds of Orkney and life on a farm.
