Shep (British Dog)
Shep (1 May 1971 – 17 January 1987) was a ''Blue Peter'' dog, a Border Collie. He was bought by the BBC to replace Patch, one of Petra's puppies, born in 1965. Shep became the main ''Blue Peter'' dog when Petra died in 1977. Shep is remembered by British television viewers as inseparable from ''Blue Peter'' presenter John Noakes. Shep was excitable, and Noakes would often have to restrain him. Noakes' common refrain, "Get down, Shep!", became a catchphrase, and The Barron Knights released a song with that title. Shep left ''Blue Peter'' when Noakes departed the show in June 1978. Shep also appeared with Noakes in six series of ''Go With Noakes'', from 1976 to 1980.

Shep (American Dog)
Shep was the name given to a herding dog that appeared at the Great Northern Railway station one day in 1936 in Fort Benton, Montana, and watched as his deceased master's casket was loaded onto the train and left. The dog remained at the station, waiting for his master to return for the next five and a half years, until he was killed by an incoming train in 1942. History The dog once belonged to an unknown sheep herder near Fort Benton, Montana. When his owner became ill in August 1936, he went into St. Clare Hospital at Fort Benton for treatment, and brought his herding dog with him.

The dog followed his casket to the railroad station and watched while it was being loaded on a train heading to the eastern USA. He would greet every train that arrived each day after that, expecting his master to return. It took station employees some time to realize that the body in the casket was probably the dog's maste ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
