An Aussie Shepard raised as a pup with the kids is outstanding. Our 9 month old red male is coming along fine. Lets them maul him near to death.
Only barks when something is different. He gave a verbal tune-up to my sister-in-law last weekend when she wore a rabbit outfit for Easter.
He doesn't stray too far from the yard and after a few reminders has curbed his interest in vehicles on the road. Spends his off time in the creek & marsh sniffing around. Also pushes a plastic pail around the yard doing circus tricks he learned on his own. Plays fetch well and very willing to please and subservient. No battle of wills who is the Alpha in the household. Need some livestock for him to drive. Made the mistake of whacking him down one day while wearing my suit for church as he jumped up. He's a little timid now and on occasion piddles when near myself.
The previous mature Aussie dog when introduced to kids, she mostly just tolerated them. A couple of pats and she would walk off. After the kids play dog, the Golden retriever died the Aussie made a point of walking up to the kids to be petted.
That dog caught hundreds of ground hogs and keep the dirty honking nesting Canada Geese out of the creek. That dog was smart, when picking up the shotgun she would run to the field to flush birds, pickup the rifle and she would start tracking deer. Thought I’d fool her one day and came out of the house with a fishing pole, she went to the garden and started digging for worms.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
