Beginnings of a Jeep Dog-

My 13 year old Australian Cattle Dog has really started showing her age recently. She's got arthritis, is mostly blind and doesn't hear as well as she used to. But, she's very happy, enthusiastic and always eager to be part of the action.

I decided to take her along Monday just as a test run since it would be quick and close to home (little did I know) and see how she did. The verdict? You'll be seeing a lot more of Abby on upcoming snow runs!

I laid down the lower seat cushion of the rear seat and put her dog bed back there so she'd have her own little nest:

Let's go Jeepin'!

It was getting close to dinner time for her, so I brought along some kibble. I did however forget a bowl. I ended up making one out of the Jeeps old California license plates and some snow. Here she is waiting obediently:

Sweet dog! My roomie has an Aussie cattle dog, she (CJ) is awsome. That will be my next dog.
 
Is it the same as an Australian Sheep Dog? I know sheep dogs are very impressive. A buddy's mom breeds/shows/competes them- she had one jump in the back of my Chevy because I didn't think they could jump 7-8 ft in the air. I was wrong.

So what are you going to do to this rig? Is everything swapping over or leaving this one alone for now?
 
Pics of the rig ! ! !


That is a cool dog. I am a big fan of Ole English Sheep dogs. I Like the rear seat bed idea, thats awesome.


although you can stop showing off all your snow fun....:moon:
 
IXNAYXJ, glad to see your good looking girl is taking over the Jeep - they are the best co-pilots for sure. Here's mine..

Note all the drool down the side of the Jeep. 105degF in CA this summer.

He hasn't quite mastered the whole winching thing.

But he's not too bad at a spotter side pull.

Finally!! Next, how 'bout we say the more you spent on your Jeep (initially) the cooler it is?! :thumbup:

Did Matt get a new rig?

Guess I have been out of it for a while.

Cute old Lady.

There is an adorable Healer/Pit mix at the Animal Shelter down on Oly.
