why they never receive the prize. Maybe, if they were smaller and had terrier or poodle attached to their name. Wait: Goldendoodle. No, that didn’t help.
P.S. I love looking at my hearts. Wish we could keep them longer.

With a group of older gentlemen, mainly Mescalero Apache. They all take their dogs to the shop. It’s a distinctive breed — about the size of a Doberman, little beefier, short hair, long tail, and golden. Clearly pure bred whatever it is, because they all look a lot alike. Friendly, but apparently good with horses and cattle.

Asked what breed it was. They looked at me like I was stupid and told me it was a “yellow” dog. I said “I see it is yellow, but what breed is this.” Hey said the breed was Yellow Dog.

Looked it up, and apparently it’s really a thing. Not an official registered breed, but a mix that is extreme common in the desert SW.

Most famous example being Old Yeller.

Despite being the most perfect of creatures.

I couldn’t believe that another wire-haired terrier won... and chosen by a judge who is a “terrier man.” Big surprise there!
