Oooh Tulip, those markings scuh-ream blue heeler to me. The marking around the feet are totally heeler. My heeler/springer spaniel had the same markings on her lower leg, and my roommmate's heeler female threw a ton of babies with those markings. The ears though, wow whatever it is it's an interesting combo. Glad to hear you're reaping the benefits of the wicked smarts that cattle dogs have.

That's was the initial guess, but I'm pretty certain that he's not cattle dog at all, but Border Collie and English Setter. He certainly has all the border collie attributes, and I got him from a border collie rescue group. As for the English Setter, that would explain the spots, the silky ears, and the pretty intense pointing. Also, all the cattle dogs I've seen have brown on them, and this one has no brown. One of these day's I'll spring for one of those canine DNA tests, but not today.

How come I can't see Pearl?

I've heard the canine DNA tests come out so odd on mixed breeds that you can't believe it. Like, I can't believe my Great Pyrenees is 90% Jack Russell Terrier.

They don't have very many breeds identified, something like 58 or something like that.

That's weird!- you mean Tulip can see my Pearl pictures but you can't? Tulip- are they still showing up for you?

Ditto.

[BleeckerSt_Girl]

Ditto.

Ok, how about now?
If you can see the two pix of Pearl now in that previous post, it's because TE likes pix on Flicker web albums more than on Picasa web albums. (be sure to hit 'refresh') I put them on Flicker this time instead of Picasa, as a test.

Shiloh is adorable.

Pearl is lovely.

I had a Maine Coone named Fuzz a while back. He was the coolest cat. He decided that my roommate was his human. He'd follow her around and wrap his tail around her legs. When she was in the bathroom he'd sit outside the bathroom and guard the door. He was her self appointed guard cat.

Our Pearl likes to leap up from the floor unexpectedly onto guests shoulders to ride around. When we see her get 'that look' while she's eying them, we have to warn them (or guard them!). My daughters used to freak out when that happened, now they think it's cool.

I can see your kitties just fine. And the dog as well. I used to have a cat like that. I remember when the refrigerator repair guy came he shrieked that my cat was attacking him. (this particular cat didn't have a nasty bone in his body)

Now I can see Pearl -- she's beautiful!

Thank you!
Now I know that if I want pix to show up on TE, I should upload them to my Flicker album, not to my Picasa album.

we went to the shelter to look at cats today

My favourites so far are a large, athletic male with gorgeous leopard markings, he was a bit standoffish though, a tiny, heartmeltingly sweet female with the glossiest black coat you can imagine, she was a bit timid, and the funniest little female with thick soft orange fur, shaved off from most of her body because she came in with massive knots in it, wearing a sweater She was such a friendly little thing, every time I talked to her she perked up and leant her head back over the basket to reach my hand. She looked like one of those Chinese hairless dogs only worse, but seemed not to take offense. Wouldn't leave the basket though, so it was hard to tell how active she is.
