Shadow And The Jumping Cow

i mentioned in the blog a couple of days ago about a neighboring cow snacking on the grass in the orchard.  Well yesterday the cow and Shadow got introduced.  Tim and George had run down to the Orchard and saw the cow "visiting" again.  Shadow was with them and being a typical dog he was curious and decided to check out the cow.  The cow had the same idea and actually  made the first move by sniffing Shadow's rear end when they approached each other.  Tim and George were closely monitoring the whole time just in case the cow decided to kick or something.  Shadow and the cow were friendly but kept a distance too.  After a while they got bored with eachother and the cow returned to eating the orchard grass and Shadow decided to go back up the hill and sit outside the a RV.  We kept thinking that there was a break in the fence line between the cow farm and the farm but we found out from the farmer who owns the cow that this particular cow can jump.  So everyday the cow jumps the fence to eat the orchard grass at at night, when it is feeding time, she jumps the fence again to go home.  Someday I would love to watch the cow do it.  It maybe be time to put up a camera down by the fence line and try to get some footage of the cow jumping.  Shadow now has a new friend and since we don't know the cow's name I guess we will have to give her one while she is a visitor at the farm.  Any suggestions on a name?
