GT and Shirley, Sasha is awesome with all the critters. She only jumped because the little guy tried to nurse!
Sasha will do most anything for her critters, but she does draw a line somewhere!
Twister & Quartz the girls I keep for milking, the boys are destined for slaughter (Sorry! but I do have to pay for their feed somehow :mad:) They go to the great playground in the sky in late fall. And goat stew really is awesome. Do you put barley in it? Most excellent on a winter day…
Tarragon It was a rough start for the first few days if you watched the previous few videos, but so far they all are OK. The first set that were born in -42 will probably lose at least part of their ears, and the one kid still has trouble with the hind leg that was frozen. But considering that they probably should be dead, I’m happy with their progress! The rest are doing great, there is 11 with one still due.
Sasha is a furry beast and she’s starting to shed. I actually shave her and my 2 Australian Shepherds in May, they love it!
Boyo Jim Sasha is a Meremma Sheepdog, they are awesome guardians, she doesn’t chase anything, cats, chickens, nothing… BUT do NOT come between her and her goats, it won’t be pretty and she is very motivated. She really is a serious dog when she needs to be. I have a coulée and major marshland just down the ridge, there are a ton of coyotes all around here, I haven’t lost a chicken or a cat as long as they stay overnight in the barn. In fact, I have never trained her at all, it’s all instinct, she decides what she wants to do, and she’s a very smart dog.
Dotty I’m glad your daughter enjoys “Auntie Cold’s” videos! I am just way too busy to even try to keep up in the MMP, so I figured I will just post to his thread as a get a good video or two…
Hunter kids are kids everywhere :smack:
Canadiangirl The song is by the fabulous Ray Lamontagne. I LOVE him.
But what was Sascha biting at on her tail? She looked like she had a mouth full of fur. Just wanted to make sure she was okay! LOL
