New Rabbit Weapon

Bernie 20060710 cropped.jpg

We got Bernie at the Enoch Pound on Saturday. He is about a year old, and is an Akita mix. We think he's also got some herding dog in him. The Pound thought Catahoula, because of the spots, but we think Border Collie because of the eyes. He weighs about 60 pounds, and may not be full grown yet. He's very good-natured. When we got him, he'd never had a bed or a toy, and didn't know what they were for. He also didn't know any of the basic commands, so we've been working with him on "sit," "come," and "down."

Bernie is an outside dog. He doesn't seem to mind much, since he'd been at the Pound for over five months. He's happy just to run around the yard and play.

Since Bernie arrived, we haven't had a single rabbit in our yard. The twelve gauge has now been retired as the primary weapon against rabbits!
