The dinner was a fund raiser for Western Border Collie Rescue . We decided to go support a good cause.
AND to spend time with our good friend who now lives in Laramie getting a PhD and we never get to see her anymore...
It was a really fun function... they had a small silent auction full of good, doggie, things.... border collie calendars featuring dogs from the rescue and when we sat down to dinner, each place setting had a little card stapled to a ziplock full of locally made doggie biscuits.
The menu for the dinner....
I was a little bit skeptical... I've never had crawfish (I always saw crawfish at dirty ponds in Omaha NE parks that dirty little boys were catching by using pieces of string and hot dogs - not an appetizing brain picture). I've never had duck.... and sausage isn't usually one of my favorite foods....Tho' each course was just a few bites and I tried everything. It was all VERY good!
Shew!
Our dogs enjoyed their treat from the wine dinner sans wine. And Furry Husband found 2 border collies he'd like to adopt from the rescue...

I don't know what the general consensus is between men and women, but I know that between Tom and I, he drags home a lot more animals than I do. Sorry to read your horse is hurt.
Oh, I dunno if it's a M or F thing... I just had a bunch of animals before we got married so when we get new animals people assume it's ME and Furry is nice enough to put up with it.
Tho' he musta had the animal loving dna in him somewhere or we wouldna made it this long! :)
Looks like it was a lot of fun! I've never had crawfish either. They look like giant bugs to me. But I love duck. Esp. roast duck with crispy skin, mmmm....
Are you going to adopt the two collies?
