The Alpha Dog

February 23, 2013

Australian Shepherd, Alpha Dog, Roxie, Family

As you may recall, we have two Australian Shepherds named Roxie (age 7) and Ruby (age 4).  Ruby is the younger, more animated pup–while Roxie is the undisputed alpha.

Roxie is the strong, silent type…the dog you can count on when there’s trouble around (deer, moles, Ruby getting out of line…)

She is very calm and sweet, and is most often found right by my side or snoozing at my feet.

and her favorite place in the entire house…?

      I think we got her in May of 2006–born around Feb of 2006. What were you thinking?
