Shadow barking at cow. But, Shadow, what did it ever do to you? (Original Post) George McGovern May 31 OP
Maybe she's calling the cow over... I know my girlie would have... hlthe2b May 31 #1
Your girlie was more polite perhaps hlthe 2b. These cows ignore her all the time. George McGovern May 31 #2

Oh Thank You Deuxcents! We are blessed to be here. George McGovern May 31 #10
Or, perhaps, she is telling the cow to rejoin the herd. Polly Hennessey May 31 #4
Ha Ha, Yes Polly! You're right. If she had her way, Shadow would jump over George McGovern May 31 #11

It is clear that Shadow does not want cows to stray too far.

the fence and show off her instinctual herding skills!

Don't know if I've ever suggested this before, but:

It looks ever so much like a painting. I think my very eclectic tastes are showing. This photo along with California Peggy’s Shadow Kissed Onions (my title for them) are my favorite photos this week.

She is always a delight to look at. Although if it doesn't work it probably has very little to do with the instructions and more to do with a brain that mostly doesn't compute computer talk- yes, I know that hardly constitutes computer jargon, but some of us a century or so late for our brains understanding. Patience is what I have to tell myself constantly.
