Mickey is our one excursion away from the collie. He is a Sheltie - or Shetland
Sheep Dog, very pretty with his long coat in shades of tan and brown with white.
We adopted him when neighbours left and couldn't take him to their new home.
He knew us well and settled in very happily, arriving shortly before Belle's
passing, as though to try and help us over this difficult time. He
accepted Chloe into the house and despite
being 8 years older than her, they played together and often had a mad half hour.
Initially a very yappy dog who was seemingly set in some of his ways he was a real match for Debbie's
Sheltie bitch Tammy, they are the same age and loved each other dearly.
Mickey passed away in May 2010 and was buried in Kenn's paddock with a tree planted above him as a living memorial.
