I got him as a mutt my neighbor didn’t want. Figured he’d never be useful. I noticed some driving instincts coming up and reinforced them. Regardless of his Obivously mixed parentage he steps up. I think there’s Catahoula Leopard Dog involved but his hard curled tail is a
mystery. He works sheep, patrols and entertains Sophie. Good dog.
He’s one very special guy! More than worth his weight in gold 😊❤️.

Genetics! Sounds like your "mutt" is using the most desirable ones...good for you! Sometimes they respond to those instincts in their feelings to please you. You reinforced them and showed him love. 🤗. I had a tiny min pin who helped "herd" sometimes, along side me...

@SageHill yes they need roughage but, I feed a good mixed grass hay, add alf pellets for the nutritional jolt. Just couldn't handle the $ loss that tour seeing...it's a trade off that works. Pretty annoying when I see my goats eating harder crap and leaving those stems.😒

So slept late...nice!...having coffee and listening to animal complaints of my tardiness. 🤣. Better go.

Where are you located? Are they loquats? Sweet fruit with apricot sized pit.
She is too far north for loquats. I had a loquat tree in Lindale. They bloom in winter and set fruit, it would either freeze the blooms or freeze the tiny fruit. Snowmeggdon in 2021 froze the whole darn tree.

Coffee is ready. 50F with a high of 81F today. Son came in last night, he’s got another job starting in Oklahoma on the 14th, so will leave on next Saturday or Sunday. He’s got things to do in the meantime.
