    Now that's a lot of potential energy waiting to be released! I have often thought about getting a second dog so they can wear each other out. Does that work?
    Two wonderful dogs there!

    I've always had them in pairs, and it is alot of energy. They do wear each other down.

    At least 1 hour out of each weekday is devoted to just them running...no matter the weather. They are outside when I am no matter what.

    Awesome pair there. I had a Australian shepherd named Diesel, awesome dog, he loved doing firewood with me, would even carry wood back to the truck for me, sadly he got hit by a car.

    This is Charlie, he loves to come up to the saw shed and "HELP" me...
    We have 6 that do a great job of keeping the vermin down. 19638.jpeg 19637.jpeg

    This is my new little buddy Duffy
    2 year old rescue
    He is much happier now healed from scratches, cleared of fleas, free of worms, recovered from a UTI, and neutered.
    When Duffy arrived they believed he was already neurtured as did two different Veterinarians, however come to find out he had Retained Testicles (Cryptorchidism).
    He underwent a special neuter surgery to remove the testicles and treat the condition to avoid cancer and other complications in the future.

    he is full of pizz and vinegar :D

    Here's Bryson enjoying the warm stones in front of the woodstove.
    Yeah, he's a cat, but he's awesome.

    He's a beast for sure. From nose to toes he is 37" long, and still growing.

    That is awesome.
    Looks like you have your hands full. We have two Labs and that's enough! Although we have discussed one more.
    Enjoy the pups.

    This fella showed up this week. Very shy, would howl when I approached. I fed him a couple days as he hid out n my tractor shed. I knew I couldn’t calm him, so I asked o e of my Animal Management Deputies to trap him.

    She didn’t get back to her truck before he took the bait. He howled like a banshee. Deputy insisted the shelter name him “Brad”.

    Got a report today, that with the gentleness of the shelter staff, he is now climbing into their laps.
