You guys wont believe this - the Ferret - 07-09-2014
True story, I swear!
So brother and I are out riding today, he on his Bonneville, me on my CB. He was leading, me following. Over the intercom he says " we have dogs in the road up here" so I start slowing down. I look ahead of him and there are 2 black and white Australian Shepard's and what looks like a small black dog. As we get close they all trot off the road to our left and the small black dog is...I kid you not.... a small pot bellied pig.
It's like the shepards were looking after the little pig. He was a cute little thing.
Strangest thing I have ever seen while riding.

Strangest thing I have ever seen was a car coming into me and knocking me over and then flopping around as I rolled on the ground until I came to rest on the shoulder.....true story (just sayin).

Great story, Ferret.
I'd not heard of the Australian Shepherd breed before so I [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Shepherd]looked it up. Seems likely it was bred in the US. How about that?

:-D that is awesome! The weirdest thing I have ever seen while riding was in San Francisco. It was raining and my wife and I had donned our matching blue Frogg Togg rain suits. I bought them big so they would fit over lots of gear, but they do tend to fill up with air. We looked over and there was a carload of girls taking our pictures with cell phones as they passed... two giant, flappy blueberries. Wait, I guess that would be the strangest we ever looked while riding, never mind. We did see a camel next to the road once.

Really? My wife and I went to Little Australia in Kentucky and they were using them to herd sheep. I assumed they were from Australia.

I have 48 acres of prime shrubs for deer, at dusk i find deer, wild turkey, rabbits all hanging out together in a circle. When i drive up close none of them even move except a turkey or two may open up as a defense. I just sit there with my wife and watch for a few minutes, the must be having on a conversation.

You could have stopped your story right there and it still would'a made sense!

Well googling Australian Shepherd it appears you are right lol.. American breed.
After looking at pics the dogs could have been border collies. The dogs were black with white chests. The pig was grey all over lol. Wish I had gotten a pic, but by the time we realized it was a pig until it got off the road into the weeds was about 3 or 4 seconds, and I was still using the clutch and brakes. Definitely an unusual sight!

Ferret, as I read your post, I thought for sure that you were going to say that the dogs began chasing you and that the little pot bellied pig was somehow managing to keep up with them.
