Thanks to Chere for allowing me to bring home this dynamic girl. Dani has a powerful side gait that let her easily, and with limited showing pick up 3 majors!
I can always count on Dani to hunt what ever is foolish enough to come into the yard <grin>. Stuffed animals don't stand a chance. She is so full of mischief and life, but is also very couragous.
SAVING MY HUSBAND FROM A COPPERHEAD
Last year my husband went out to change the water in an outside water bucket. Dani had been barking quite a bit. When Bob went towards the bucket, she put herself in front of him and started barking, jumping towards him and not letting him near it. He corrected her about being a pain in the butt. About that time, a 4 foot copperhead snake crawled out. Dani then put herself between my husband and the copperhead snake, held it at bay, and saved him from being bit. It gave him time to go get a shovel to kill the snake.
Thank you Dani
Dani would love to course, but because of an injury, will be not be allowed. It's a shame, as she is quick, agile, loves to give chase, and obviously has tremendous hunting instincts. |
