"Misty" is a gorgeous mahogany with a lush coat, lovely face, and sweet, ladylike, loyal temperament. Straight and correct, she was a beautiful girl and a true "by my side" dog; quietly appearing where ever I happened to go. She had herding instincts, but since she came to us later in life, it did not get developed.

It was a bolt from the blue when in the spring of '13 we were contacted by a retiring breeder, asking if we might be interested in his pair, (Misty & Geronimo) since he was moving. I wasn't really ready for that step, but when I saw their pedigrees and more info, I knew we couldn't refuse. And Abi was so excited that Geronimo and Flash were cousins! So they joined us here. The farm environment was a big leap for them, but they transitioned really nicely and were seriously pleased as punch to be "country livin"!

After taking the time to settle in properly, Misty really enjoyed being a farm dog, and was a terrific watch dog as well as inobtrusive partner for any and all chore-doing. She loved the happy, morning walks, and was very much enamored of Flash, which left her previous "buddy", Geronimo, kind of feeling left out. (But Fiona thought he wass quite cute enough!)

As her reproductive years soon came to a close, Misty took a quiet retirement with a grandfather who could focus all affection on her alone, and she wouldn't have to put up with pups pulling on her fuzz, (she was so patient she just endured it, and never made them back off!) or compete with the other dogs here for a person's attention. She now enjoys leasurely strolls with her buddy, the occasional plate of Italian, and being a star at family get-togethers.
