Hi my name is Rusty
I am an 8 week old Australian Cattle Dog. No I wasn't named after the kid from National Lampoon's Vacation. (Look kids Big Ben!) My parents tried to come up with a cool Aboriginal name like Uluru, a slang name like Jackaroo, or even Fosters, but Rusty is what the people who bred my mom named me when I was born, and Rusty is what I'll stay. Mostly because it is easy for me to hear being yelled across the property when I am up to no good, and my new parents were out of deceased grandparents to name me after anyway.
I know I may look like Mattie, but I am not her puppy. That would be like Joan Rivers giving birth to sextuplets and getting her own TLC reality show after Kate + 8 on Thursday nights. My mom was a Red Heeler, and my dad was a Blue Heeler. From what I know that makes me a Purple Heeler. Just Kidding! :)
Calla is still a bit hesitant, but is warming up to me. India on the other hand thinks I am more fun then a can of Cheez Whiz, and will squeeze me like one if given the opportunity. I am still working on not jumping up on her, but since she is the closest in size to me; I just can't help it.
As you can see I've made myself right at home. They even bought me a new chicken to snuggle with which I just love to throw everywhere. I have met the other chickens and even helped to feed them some strawberry tops. So far I want nothing to do with them because they are bigger then me.
Stop in and see me sometime. I'm pretty friendly, I have stinky puppy breath, and I promise I won't lick you to death. Maybe........
Yeah!!! Congrats on the new addition :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to meet her/him?!
Hugs and kisses to you all,
Kary
SO cute!!
ReplyDeleteHim! Mattie is such a twat there is no way she would get along with another girl. :)
ReplyDeleteI should've used my brain and realized with a name like Rusty...
ReplyDeleteI swear sometimes I am surprised I am still able to communicate at all.
It's funny though, Kannon just got a new therapist on his team named Rusty :)
Miss you guys.
