Just hanging with out with my best friend.

Humid this morning but decided to cut anyway, find cutting wood very relaxing.
My buddy " pictured " is with me every time and is smart enough to be long gone when felling.
He's great company but not much help.

Is that an Australian Shepherd? Always have to have a companion or two when cutting wood. Here’s some pics of mine.

Bonehead, 4 years old, trying to talk me into cutting down this maple in the yard, the squirrels make it to the tree before he can get them, he wants it cut down.

I wanted to start a thread about my and your favorite story about your cutting buddy. I do not think any of my saws will run unless my buddy OKs them to run. Most mornings he jumps out the back of the truck at 3 AM barking up a storm and then sits on a round just watching the area. I presume its the bears because when I get up there are always tracks around the camp. Then around 5 AM when I get up and the grass is still snapping because it is still frozen he jumps under a blanket to watch me get ready for the day. Then just like clock work right after lunch he is nowhere to be found unless I look among my blankets. Thanks

Green leaves? The trees are mostly bare here, it'll be snowing soon.

Had a laugh today Daughter visited & brought him a squeeky toy she placed it on his old duvet that he lies on in the shop he came into the shop inspected & sniffed the toy ,picked it up carried it outside & placed it by the door & went with me on the lawn tractor /trailer to the wood pile for some logs on return he hopped off when I stopped to open the shop doors as I drove the wood into the shop he carefully picked up his toy waked over & carefully placed it on his duvet & with a big sigh laid down beside it the look he gave me would have turned milk sour

I wish my dogs would go out and cut with me, but anything loud, noisy, or moving is a potential threat to them. I can't even mow or run my lawn tractor without them barking, chasing me and trying to bite the tires. Last time I tried to start a saw while they were outside, my youngest pup came up and attempted a jump attack — luckily I saw it coming and jerked away. Last time I was out with my backpack blower, she nipped me in the buttocks...

That being said, I still love my dogs. A pain sometimes, but their love is unconditional. They run and play so much it's hard to photo them in the wood area, but here's a rare one with them together and still.

And there they are overlooking a rocky bluff while on a hike in WV.

Cool pics of all the dogs.
Here is Minna "protecting" the stacks on a snowy day.

Don't know a sawyer who doesn't go to the woods without canine backup. Scout want his picture loaded up too

I have a 6 year old border collie mixed with an Australian shepherd and he is no help. Every time hes out side he wants me to play with him. He is a very needy and energetic dog. He loves the snow too.

Yes smooth coat.
I shave him twice a year and let it grow out in the winter.
He's got Really long hair

Rover was a smooth coat. Hair was more like a lab. No shaving required. Everyone thought that he was a lab mix but he had his papers.
