Shimmer

Shimmer, another Border collie, entered the land of the ranch, sniffing. She could smell other dogs and humans. A rather good sign for her. She wanted a home. A place to stay and live, with humans and her own kind. Her tail hung low as she padded up to a side of the house, and she stopped. She started barking, wanting to get some attention. It was either here or the streets, and she wanted to be here, not the coldness of the dark alleys and abandoned buildings that almost every dog hated. She lowered her head and started sniffing the ground, interested in those that occupied this land.

Shimmer

Hearing some commotion, Shimmer quickly barked one last time and dashed to the barn, where she could smell a human.
