Faelan, my Big Black German Shepherd and I were taking a walk back in the hollow behind my barn around 1PM today. He likes to carry his ball with him, which I'll occasional throw for him.

We had been making plenty of noise with his chasing the ball through the leaves. Suddenly he decided he needed to take a dump. I just stood around while he went through the ritual of finding the perfect place. Never understood that.



Anyway he was just finishing his business, when I heard the crashing of leaves. I look toward the direction of the sound and saw a nice buck chasing a doe on top of the ridge. Faelan alerted, but stayed in place, as he has been trained.

The doe made a sharp turn off the ridge and headed down the ridge toward us. The buck had sex on the brain, so needless to say he followed.

There I stood in my sweat pants and white T-shirt and a Big Black Dog with a RED ball in his mouth as a 10pt—130 plus rack raced after the doe 20 yards in front of us.

So, from now on the Omega will be part of the dog walk.
