We found 6 month old Custer, a Corgi/Cattle Dog scared & hiding in the corner of a kennel in the Humane Society in Rapid City, while vacationing on our Harley's. In the visitation room, Custer ran to my husband when called, sat on his foot & looked up (& did the same for me), it was that moment we knew he had to come home with us. Two days later we arrived at the shelter to take him home in a kennel firmly strapped to the back seat/trunk of my Road Glide. The 18 lb. pup fit well & we were off on his first ride with a stop in Sturgis (post rally) for a walk & a bath at a water faucet on Main Street. We jumped back on the bikes to reach a tent site in Miller, S.D., a few hours later. The next morning at dawn, we were awaked to Custer happily pouncing on each of us inside the tent. On the road heading home; Custer played with toys inside his crate or he was a site going through towns with his head popped out the top of his crate watching John on his Harley. We made it home safely; Custer adjusted quickly & became a true character in our family.
Now at 2 years old, our smart little dog is performing over 35 tricks at birthday parties & local events. A few of his best tricks are catching a frisbee in the air & returning it by hooking it on your foot, get a root-beer out of a cooler, walk thru legs, jump trough hoops or on your back & much more. As you can see - his expression says it all; he is a happy rescued dog & a true love for all of us!
