A Dog’s Life: Chauffeured GSD Kennedy Smiling & Remotely Shepherding Farm Animals - IMRAN™ My beloved German Shepherd Dog, Kennedy, was likely raised around cows, other farm animals, and horses before I got him as a rescue, reportedly from Texas. The excited way he would lean out of my car windows on seeing horses or other animals around farms told me there was some deep connection. I would even point out cattle to him as we would be driving somewhere and passed any farms. K2 would be curious but Kennedy would even switch windows seats with K2 to gaze at the animals. On this day, April 4, 2024, I was driving both dogs but specially for Kennedy to see a farm. The mad pace of residential development in our area of the Tampa Bay region has literally decimated the number of real remaining farms. So it was quite a bit of driving around to find one for Kennedy. I then noticed this pasture next to what is likely the owner’s home. I had to turn around down East Shell Point Road. We pulled into the driveway hoping to see someone whom I would ask permission to walk Kennedy and K2 along the fence. Sadly, I didn’t find anyone. As I backed out and went back around the circular driveway, I stopped the car with the best farm view possible. I let Kennedy soak in the sight of the pasture while he was seated as a chauffeured German Shepherd Dog. You can see the afternoon spring sun light up his face. I wondered what puppyhood memories were behind his forever smile, just gazing joyfully at the animals there. The best dog ever. © 2024 IMRAN™ #IMRAN #GSD #dogs #horses #Florida #Kennedy #ApolloBeach #memories #farming #animals #cattle #RuskinA Dog’s Life: Chauffeured GSD Kennedy Smiling & Remotely Shepherding Farm Animals - IMRAN™ My beloved German Shepherd Dog, Kennedy, was likely raised around cows, other farm animals, and horses before I got him as a rescue, reportedly from Texas.
