Shetland
Sheepdog
When my brother
and I was younger, our parents decided to buy a dog. And their choice
was the Shetland Sheepdog, also called Shelty, a smaller version of the typical collie as
seen in the famous TV-series "Lassie". Her full name was in
fact Connie Arac of Crossharbour.
Little Connie was really loving and caring towards us boys, and she fitted straight
into our family life, first in Oslo and later in Halden.
Connie's health
became later very poor, and to her own best she was put to sleep,
reaching the high age of 15 years.
We all miss her
very much. Especially my father.
