Daisy Mae

This is our "guard" dog, Daisy.  She actually looks kind of mean and scary in this picture. She was the runt of her litter.  We have two of her sisters as guard dogs for the sheep in Ferndale.  I love having Daisy around home, but she's been barking at night.  I'm not sure if its an animal or her shadow.  Who knows.  We want her to be protective but the barking is driving us crazy..... not to mention interfering with our sleep! I've tried to have a talk with Daisy and it doesn't seem to be working....  ;-)
