Dino was a great dog! He was out of my Grandpa’s Australian Shepherd line. Pap bred blue merle to blue merle and that produced in each litter pups with too much white on them. And all ways on their heads! So that in turn caused the puppies to be blind or nearly blind (as was Dino) and deaf or really hard of hearing (as was Dino) .
My neighbors adopted Dino from Grandpa and when Dino was 2 they moved to a new home. He stayed with me to help my then very arthritic Ruff … His being there made Ruff want to get up and go even if he did not feel like it!
Dino lived a long time. He was a fine dog! He was devoted to me and loved me to a fault! He was a good friend and companion! I may not have appreciated him like I should have when he was here. I was good to him , but he was never first with me. (that was a failing of mine not his)
