You Shall Not Pass* by helenmoss

You Shall Not Pass*

I had to go off to the feed shop this morning for hen food and so took the dogs for a walk nearby. Unusually for Cambridgeshire, there was a field full of sheep. This brave soul stood her ground and blocked the path - she didn't seem at all intimidated by Storm and Maia, even though they are sheep-dogs! I'd put them on the lead, of course, but they seemed more puzzled than anything by these strange woolly animals. Something deep within their brains was sending out signals telling they they should be doing something, but they didn't really know what it was!
That'll do pig.**

*Just goes to show I've watched Lord of The Rings films too often with my boys.

The 'dog' signal must've broken, she's thinking 'I know there was something we had to do if we met one of these dog creatures, just can't for the life of me remember'.... Oh I can hear 'that'll do pig' !!

It does look dangerous, like it is blocking your path. Ewe shall not pass.

Maia says she'll forgive you this time, Mum, but only if you bring her some treats next time you come (she's particularly partial to salmon skins!)
