Dear Kathy,
Buster was such a wonderful dog......a very special dog. He and I had such a wonderful time doing herding and doing his obedience classes. He was a natural, and very obedient to my commands and mood. He was good at everything he attempted......easy to show, train, heck anything he tried he was good at. He was a large dog, tough, and a no nonsense kind of dog. He was affectionate with his family and loved his kids. He was sometimes standoffish with other men, but that was ok.......because he was my best friend. I have to be honest with you. When I got him I didn't quite know what I had. I really didn't like his brownish color he was as a baby and I really wasn't sure if I wanted a male dog.....I had horrible luck with males. When he was the last one left out of his litter at your house I thought he might be the ugly duckling, but he had a very calm personality and exuded a confidence that I had not seen in many dogs of his age (12wks) so in my mind I took a chance. He proved to be everything I wanted and more. For that first year I brought him to you every week to bathe and groom and every time he was full of dirt. He did not know he was suppose to be a pretty dog, with a gleaming, long flowing coat. He thought he was a farm dog, meant to swim in every water bowl and dip his beard and soak up two gallons of water at a time. One of our best times we had herding was in an absolute down pore of rain. He was soaked to the bone, I was dripping in water and guy our instructor was nice and dry in a poncho. The dirtier he got the better he was doing at herding......not so nice when he came home and deposited clumps of mud on the floor, but you could hose buster off in the driveway like and old truck and he would just stand there until you were done with him. Buster never stopped moving. He would run around my yard, your yard anywhere he was, he was always on the move. I would invite him up on the couch and up on the bed with me when Saturn wasn't around. That was the only time he ever relaxed and took his pettings like a good dog. Saturn would ask if Buster was up on the bed and I would play dumb and assure her that Buster was never on the furniture because we did not allow that! I took that dog everywhere with me. To pick up the kids, get Saturn from work, we would go to the park......he was always excellent with voice control and never went looking for a fight with other dogs. He enjoyed his trips to Grandma Kathy's where all the pretty girls lived, but I could tell he was always happy to come home and see his kids. Anyway, I wanted to thank you for allowing me to take Buster home and spend a few wonderful........ and way too short few years with him. I just wanted you to know that he truly meant a lot to me and I am grateful for the time we had together.                                 ~Marc Dean, Buster's Dad
