A couple weeks back when wandering indoors a 4 footed intruder was spotted and the wife gently summoned to witness the event however as we were babysitting our sons tricolor working dog it too also had to come and see which elevated tensions of what seemed like a friendly puss where she hurdled past me sitting trying to be nonthreatening and scarpered out the door and not a trace was seen again until yesterday when we at the farm workshop 200yds away.
No dog present this time and with a little coaxing and kind words the darling Brownie was quite happy to be picked up and much enjoyed a scratch and fuss made of her.....just don't touch her belly !
Wasn't much worried about us doing some equipment maintenance and came over for the occasional bunt of a leg and several further pettings yet content as she was with her new friends not once did she purr.
Just once she acknowledged us with what was to seem like a meow yet no sound was made.
Some 30mins later Larry Minor's (our youngest son) partner turned up with the tricolor dog while I had Brownie in my arms and while not that impressed she wasn't desperately afraid while we had hold of her although some soft growling was emitted. However tricolor smart as she is bailed to a safe distance as she only would like to be friends with Brownie and knows it will require a little patience on her part.
Brownie was left in the shed with a door ajar however this morning she was gone, probably back to her real
owners servants in a property nearby.
