Jacx deserves chauffeured ride to The Pines



2009-04-02 - The Pines at Lindsey Wilson, 275 Country Club Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener.
JACX, BILLY BURTON'S BEAUTIFUL BORDER COLLiE is one of the few dogs getting a chauffeured ride to The Pines at Lindsey Wilson, but he deserves the outing. Border collies are known for their superior intelligence, most of them in the shepherding and cattle tending business. Jacx has a more unique calling: he's a garden dog. Some Adair County vineyard keepers have given up because of deer, but Mr. Burton says they don't come around his, on Hutchison-Loy Road. "Jacx pretty much keeps deer and groundhogs away." Besides the vineyard, Mr. Burton, who recently retired after a career in the auto-transport business, has nut and fruit trees, and, on-trend, a large vegetable garden. Jacx, prounounced "Jax," was given the unusual spelling by a former owner, Mr. Burton said.
