Frieda is a working dog, she is always guarding the farmhouse and trying to protect us, mostly making sure passing trucks, mail carriers, UPS and Fedex delivery people don’t linger. She chases off a lot of intruders all day, especially those diesel trucks. Maria left her studio this morning to come into the house and I came out and I saw Frieda standing guard in the window. She is a faithful working dog, and she is ever-vigilant.
