Cubby, the Dog of the Day
Name: Cubby
Age: Deceased, Eighteen years old
Gender: Male Breed: Border collie, collie mix
Home: Windber, Pennsylvania, USA
 
   In his younger years, Cubby was an excellent cattle dog and helped out on the family farm. He helped move the cattle and keep them in line as needed. He was the best companion I had as a young child and was one of my best friends. Cubby loved to instigate the Belgian horses we had on the farm and once learned a lesson when he got kicked in the head by one of their large hooves. He had a lump to show for it afterwards and it stuck by him through the years. He was a natural-born herding dog, it didn't matter how big the animals he was herding were to him. I lost Cubby last summer, he was eighteen. He is sadly missed and will always remain in our hearts and memories.
