Red and Rover by Brian Basset for April 02, 2014

We’ve only had one female Border Collie; she lived through several of her male counterparts. They constituted themselves variously as her friend, her protector or her proxy pup. One of them would diligently follow her around the yard and cover her scent marks with his own. It was almost protective and must have squeezed him dry at times. Love ’em all!
