CntryBoy777 - The Lazy A** Acres Adventures

[CntryBoy777]

After the all day rain yesterday and a saturated ground, we squished in mud and puddles most of the day. I figure we got around 3/4-1" by what I poured out of the goat buckets this morning....the rain gauge shattered in the rain, ice, and fridgid temps and I forgot to get one at the store when we went. There was a puddle standing in field#2 and Grabbie had a blast running and splashing in it and biting at the grass under the water....nope....forgot my phone again....but, she was drenched from head to paw....I can honestly say she is not afraid of water....she Loves it.........that is the icon that pictures her best in the puddle.
The cold temps really set the rye grass and winter peas back quite a bit, but they are starting to recover some now....we have had a few days in the 50s and 60s...suppose to get down to 32 here tonite.
I didn't get the goat house or duck pen cleaned today, because the ground was so soaked I'd never get the wheelbarrow up and down the hills and maintain footing....I haven't said anything, but from some previous injuries my leg has been giving me fits, so I'm not pushing something that can wait another day or 2.
I did get some updated pics of Gabbie, but after she was dried off some.....
....the last one is for the paws....even though she is growing like a weed, those paws still seem very large to me. She is developing into a really nice girl and she got her 3rd round of shots on Friday and there was a different vet in the office and he couldn't stop saying how beautiful she was....he said 3-4 times.....

I didn't realize how out of proportion their feet get and how fast. At 3 months, Thor's paws were the same size as Maisy's but at 5 months they were twice as big.

She just keeps getting cuter.

I agree! She is gorgeous!

Phew, I was afraid I'd have to go another day without Gabbie pictures! You know how fast they change at that age.

Hmm, must be she is a beautiful dog then Again I notice that her right ear is standing up more.

It does when something has her attention @Bruce , but when she is relaxed it still has a lean to it. We sure think she is beautiful, cute, and purdy....and all here say so....and any that see her out say so....so, we are starting to think that others are sincere and not just saying that out of kindness....
I have been looking back at earlier pics and those of her now and she is changing as her coat continues to grow and shed....the 1 thing that has changed the most is the length of her tail. When we first got her it seem short and stubby, but now it almost touches the ground.....

You are gonna have to watch that tail! It's going to be a pretty powerful "weapon" when she's showing her happiness with vigorous tail wagging.

I may have missed it, but what is your pup? Looks like a working line GSD? She sure is pretty!

Gabbie is a PB GSD....I haven't registered her with AKC as of yet, but I have the papers. There are many police, service, and search and rescue in her lineage....not real sure about shows, obedience, or herding competitions. She sure keeps us on our toes keeping her occupied so she doesn't get too bored with old folks like us.....

Love Gabbie!

There have been some mention of Gabbie changes and I have wanted to share some pics of her markings, so here goes....first up is 3 stripes that have appeared as her coat has grown.....they are from each eye and from the middle of the muzzle....
Now, her saddle looks more like a cape with her markings.... ....today is the first day that she has held her ears up every time I have looked at them, even when she was at rest. I believe the new food is doing her some good also....her coat has gotten really shiny and she eats it much better than the other....and hasn't had any stomach issues with it either......oh, and she loves boiled eggs....
