(Ottawa Dog of the Week for June 21st/10)
“Nugget is a 10-year old Collie-German Shepherd mix. When I picked him up from a farm in Pembroke 10 years ago, he was the only one in the litter I could catch. His slowness that day was deceiving, however. These days, Nugget’s athletic nature allows him to keep up with speedy snowmobiles without a problem for long distances, always ready for more. On walks, he regularly pulls his brother, Tacoma along by the collar on their “double dog leash”, and he’s been known to scale 6-foot tall chain-link fences & climb ladders as necessary. In addition to his athletic nature, he’s as smart as a whip and sometimes I’m convinced he understands English as well as most people. On walks, he ellicits “ooooohhhs” and “aaahhhs” from passers-by and the occasional “he’s beyoooooootiful Mommy!” from children. He’s modest, but I’m sure he loves the attention. 
I sure am glad I caught him on a slow day so many years ago… I really lucked out!” – Nugget’s human, Reid.
