Sunday Stills

Our Canine companions are the subject of today's challenge- well, thank you very much, Ed- a subject dear to my heart! My dogs accompany me all around the farm, and are quite good at staying where I park them when I do my chores. But if I don't pay attention to them, they are busy little collies, doing outruns and trying to herd the horses! So I like to park them next to the hay pile while I feed.
It's not a great photo, but it does show them parked and staying!
When I'm done chores, they get to play, and that's where I had fun taking photos- hope you enjoy them!
They move so fast my poor li'l camera can't stop the action in poor lighting!
Tess let Reba catch one!
8 legged dog!
Much better photos when they aren't moving!
Sammi is still for sale. 
Can we pleeeeeease play some more?

Can't tell you how much I still miss having a Border Collie around our place .... but we didn't think we had the energy for another one. Enjoyed your dog post, thanks for sharing a bit of their daily spunk!

BCs at play - priceless. They sure were having fun and I agree, those action shots are so hard but so precious when you get a good one!

You can just see the energy of your border collies sizzling in these photos. Such expressive faces.

Nothing makes me happier than a hound dog. I love the top photo. I just kinda wanna curl up beside 'em.

Your parked dogs are wonderful! I love the last shot - I've seen those looks before!
