Named Shasta. I live in the country and Shasta is normally very adept at bringing into my closet mice, birds, etc. Not so much recently. I was watching her out of the back window this morning as she was trying to sneak up on a bird. She sprang way too early and her technique was way off. Bird escaped easily. She looked out of practice and a little disinterested. Coincidence? I think not. I will work on things from my end. P.S. I will be there Thursday from the Hill Country. Go Coogs!!
