We are thinking about getting an Akbash female and get one litter out of Thor. He should be out of his puppy stage by the time he hits 2 years or so but then I would have to find a partner for Maisy. I'm not sure she's up to breaking in another puppy so maybe not. :)
Wouldn't Thor be able to help on the breaking in or are you talking about getting one soon enough that he won't be ready to teach yet?

and then there were two. I have broken my own rule and given names to the two pups that are left. meet jake the snake on the left (he got bitten on the face by a copperhead) and manny, big man on the right ('cause he's a big boy like his daddy). the others have gone to their new homes. all working homes at that. had someone from tulsa wanting to buy a "pet" maremma. ahhh, sorry no. these dogs love their people but they love their charges too and are not ok in someones backyard.

sad day here yesterday, had to say goodbye to my grandfish bob. bob was a 5 1/2 year old google eyed goldfish that I've been babysitting since my daughter moved to Washington state. he had a regular indian burial, in a garden planter instead of the normal circle the bowl ceremony . RIP bobIMG_1973.JPG now I have to tell my daughter that her fish is dead..
IMG_2865.JPG and just because I think its so cute i'm including a picture of the guineas and the barred rock pullet they think is their mama. she has no clue that shes suppose to be their mom but they follow her everywhere.
wet and cold here already. I sure hope fall comes back so we can beautiful warm days and cool nights before I have to break down and turn the heat on. not ready for that.
youall take care.

We've managed to not run the propane furnace in the north building of the house so far. I suspect that will end VERY soon. Been running the wood stove in the south building. It isn't as well insulated, the north building was 95% rebuilt in 2013 so good insulation and triple pane windows.

NO!! you guys, just NO. I can't keep a puppy. :hidebut I want to sooo bad. Jake leaves next Friday to go live outside Nashville with a bunch of sheep and manny is still looking for a home. the right place for him will come along when its suppose to.
well I killed my computer (sorry joe) by plugging a flashlight into a usb port to charge it. same computer, same flashlight and same port I've used everytime I charged the dang thing but this time the screen went black and the right side of the keyboard got really hot to the touch. computer guru said it would cost over $400. to fix it. thank the good Lord that I had sold some of the pups and had the money to buy a new one
this springs pullets are starting to get those pretty bright red combs and talk to me, can't wait to start finding pullet bullets in the nests. garden is done and all is at peace with the world. i'm still shining rocks and starting to work at wire wrapping too. keeps me off the street and out of trouble.
