A Dingo and a Dingo!

Last week I got a chance to meet yet another animal on a job. This type of dog is called a dingo, it was owned by the neighbor of the customer I was working for. Dingoes are a breed of dog that originated from domesticated dogs but for whatever reason have become wild and roam freely.

I personally was super fascinated and excited to meet a dingo in person. When I was fourteen I actually was lucky enough to visit Australia. While there I learned a little about dingoes, and learned that dingoes are native to Australia.

So I was surprised to hear from the dog's owner that he had purchased the dog from TEXAS. I had no idea that was like even possible. But I was quite fascinated.

The owner said that, indeed, the dog is a bit primitive. The dog spent about four months in the wild, according to the owner.

But at the same time he mentioned that the dog is quite independent pretty chill, and I believed him. My co-worker and I randomly noticed the dog just chilling in her yard minding her own business.

The dog has a dog door and lets her roam in and out of the house freely. That sounds really nice to have a dog so independent.

Shamefully and tragically I neglected to discover her name :( I was too curious and distracted by it's cuteness. But I do recall the owner addressing the dog as she several times.

The second day I believe she remembered me because she actually kind of came up to let me pet her. Which didn't happen the first day.

As I put my hand out she did seem a little hesitant but she did let me pet her pretty easily overall. It was soooo awesome she was very soft. Very good looking dog. Good size as well not too big or small.

It was a fun little time meeting her :)

Of course I thought it was kind of funny that our hole digging machine is indeed called a dingo like the dog...

Plus while we were at it we put up a decent chain link fence.

I had a decent working summer and I learned a lot. Steem on!
