Watcher
October 7 2013 – June 5 2024
Never was there a dog who lived up to his name more thoroughly than Watcher did.
He decided his job was to keep watch over the whole farm as soon as we brought him home as a 10-week-old puppy.
For ten years nothing happened on this farm that Watcher didn’t detect and tell us about. He was the Farm Alarm.
My memory of him will always be of his bright eyes and upright ears, constantly scanning everything going on.
Or bringing me his favorite frisbee to play with.
Even when the cancer got to be too much for him, he was watching his sheep (and his people) right up to his last hour.
Thank you, Watcher. You were such a good dog and did such a good job taking care of everyone all these years.
