Whiskey
Blacksheep Whiskey Runner (sired Miles, Red and Gracie)
GREAT NEWS!!! Whiskey's Pennhip tests have come back "Above Average" with Right = 0.32, left = 0.36 . Handsome Whiskey is an athletic dog who stands at 23” and weighs approximately 49 lbs. Whiskey, owned by Diane Wiest, resides at the other end of the valley where we are located.
” Whiskey lives on a small farm where he helps out with our poultry flock, and will help put them into their pens at night. He often accompanies me when feeding them, and I can trust him not to bother the birds. Recently, a mature bald eagle had decided to visit the area directly outside of the duck pen. Whiskey recognized the huge bird as a threat, and got it to fly away, escorting it to the other side of our
field, by running right behind it. He loves baby chicks and will run to the brooder room at the mention of the word ‘babies’. He is gentle with them and nuzzles them.
He has learned the boundaries of his territory, and likes to patrol our perimeter several times a day. He is happy to keep rabbits, possums and, unfortunately, skunks out of the area surrounding our house.
He is very affectionate, and lives up to the English Shadow nickname." Submitted by Diane Wiest

Whiskey was visiting us in October while his family was traveling. I found them enjoying the living room one day and snapped this photo.
