Dally lives with Brooke Edwards, director of the Melda Murray Student Centre in the Faculty of Engineering, and her partner Colin on their farm in Upper Stewiacke.

Name: Dally

Nickname: Dally D

Species/breed: Border Collie mix

Age: About 5. She was found abandoned as a puppy in Trochu, Alberta before she and Colin made their way home to Nova Scotia.

Fav food: Chicken poo (we really wish that this was not the case).

Special tricks: She is a chicken mama and takes this VERY seriously. She also likes to bark at the coffee grinder and is oddly afraid of people with hiccups. She keeps us on our toes with her little quirks.

Best quality: Besides loving her chicks, she is full of character and loves outdoor activities like swimming, camping and running. You always know how she’s feeling and she enjoys tagging along on our adventures.
