Can’t say enough about Rosie. All day we struggled with heavy snow, bitter cold, driving winds, ice and drifts. She moved the sheep down to the feeders, back to shelter, held them off while I grained them, was covered most of the day in snow and ice, and never wavered, faltered, or lost focus. I love my dogs, and love working breeds, but what, really is as sweet as a border collie locked in on a mission. Rose is my hero, and once again reminds me how difficult life would be without her on this farm.
