This is Ralph.....he protects the great walled compound in the midst of the rough
streets of NW Memphis. I wouldn't have 5hi+ without Ralph, it would all be
stolen long ago. Lately he is also a great squirrel dog. This is the first year we
have had edible pecans in the yard due to my aggressive squirrel eradication
plan put into effect over summer. 15 squirrels to the raptor center, and he
picked up every one, gave it a brutal shake and delivered it to my waiting hand.
And now he wil bark to let me know that there is a squirrel in the tree if I am
in the BY doing something.
A great, smart mutt of a dog. SO FAITHFUL....sits in the BY all day waiting
for me to get home from work. HEELS to me everywhere I walk. I stop, he stops.
I never taught him that and he never walks outside the fence like a dog that would
know how to heel. He is in a veritable dog zoo exhibit. And yet he heels....hmm.
