Best Buds.............



They look out for each other in their subtle ways.  One really doesn't notice but they are really side by side to keep each other company.  Button had to adjust to this big border collie who came to his house 11 years ago, bounding, bouncing and never sitting still. Button spent a few years trying not to be afraid of this intruder and stayed on the couch as much as possible.  He would ask us to carry him around rather than get down on the floor.  Now they go outside together each knowing the distance to keep so someone smaller doesn't get hurt.  Barney accidentally runs into Button but it isn't too often. You can see that Button keeps his radar on as he turns to see his location.

They are both adorable. That's cute that Button wanted to be carried for a while after Barney's arrival!

Oh, poor Button! Our landlord had a cute little dog that would always come with him when he checked on the cattle, etc. and we lived in the old farmhouse in one of his fields. We had a 95 pound Rhodesian Ridgeback that just wanted to play with the little dog, who was absolutely terrified! So, this is sort've the same situation. At least the farmer's dog could stay home, but he missed out on his time with his "Dad."
