Faithful to his Foster Mother's
Kind
It is written: "The wolf
shall lie down with the lamb and
the leopard with the kid," etc.,
and while that period is not yet
here we have now and then an
incident in animal life which
might, perhaps, be a pointer to
that which is yet in the future.
Our townsman, G. T. Boothby,
while canvassing in the interest
of the Monmouth Creamery Co.,
some three weeks ago, became
possessed of the knowledge of an
incident that is very much out of
the ordinary, and is that of a
shepherd dog that has taken
charge of a herd of goats and re
mains with them day and night
as their guard and protector.
The dog and goats belong to
the Kline brothers, who live on
the head waters of Big Elk, one
of the tributaries of the Yaquina
River. When the dog was a pup
it nursed on a nanny goat and
learned to follow and stay with
the flock, and when grown as
sumed care and protection over
the herd which now numbers
about 200. There has been no
loss from any of the animals
which usually prey upon such
herds.
The dog exhibits a nervous
disposition frequently changing
position and place among the
herd as though the whole care
and responsibility rested upon
him.
Twice a week he goes to Kline
Brothers residence to get some
thing to eat and after being
served returns to his charge.

the best of luck and all happiness
