During our spring-weather like walk in the park Sunday, Kiska performed some wall walking memories that brought to mind one of the most colorful characters in Herd History – Rusty the Rooster.

Long-time readers already know instantly who we are going to mention. We were blessed with one of the most memorable members of The Herd – Rusty the Rooster. His nickname was simply based on his red fur and enthusiastic crowing. And that enthusiasm bubbled over to every activity he ever tackled – including walks. No walk was ever simple with The Rooster – but it was always entertaining.

Rusty wall walking because it was more entertaining.

And while this video does not show off his wall walking skills, it does show off what a unique personality the Rooster had.

So thanks for walking down memory lane with us . . . well, down the memory wall.

That was fun, huh?

    Rusty was One of a Kind – but I think he keeps a paw in where he can – just to remind you what he could do – and how much he loved you! I miss him, even thought he was not here for very long, his personality was huge.
    Thank you for reminding us that a dog can be one of a kind, but each one has their own beautiful personality, sometimes rotten (??) personalities! How boring life would be is they were all just the same!
    A beautiful and safe, happy glorious Christmas and New Years to you and your family!!
