Margali's Griffin Wood Ranch

So the dog is named Bruno. He's good on crate training and basic commands. He's extremely reserved around Hubby but hopefully that will change.

He's came with me while I fed the sheep twice. He wont go closer than the 10ft leash makes him. I think he's intimidated by their size.

He also seems to have no prey drive right now. He flushed a rabbit from a bush about a foot away. He stood still, looked direction it went, then looked at me like "what was that?.

He sounds like a smart puppy. Knowing you, you will train him to commands and good manners.

Training training training - obedience training is fun. Rottie and cattle dog will have ability & smarts for obedience training.

So Hubby and I caught COVID. We are all recovered now except stamina is still shot. Kids didn't get sick at all.
Bruno and the sheep are doing good.

Glad the kids didn't get it, or were asymptomatic. I hear the fatigue can last quite a while, pace yourself.

Sorry you got it! Glad it's pretty much gone.

The sheep look great! Love the face marking on the black.

Super cute lamb!

Bummer it is male.

Glad to hear from you again, and that you are better.

Sorry that y’all had Covid, but I’m glad it’s gone and over. It sure drains all your energy.

Your sheep are looking good, that Spot is just gorgeous. Wow! He is so colored up!

I jinxed myself about having healthy kids. They and hubby now have strep throat. I'm hiding in the bedroom trying to stay health.

I'm also having soo much fun sorting receipts for home build and ranch start up. I had stuff in too broad of categories so I'm categorizing to match Sch F better and record for home basis. I know it was mentioned not to start business in 2021 due to 5 yrs to turn profit but I have $23k extra income from 401k withdraw to purchase land to offset. For example I spent $6k to get water onto property and that is how I water the sheep. What part of that is covered? Same question with $1.5k for culvert wide enough to get a tractor onto property. Need to discuss that with accountant... But first I need to have the information in usable format. ugh

Covid takes all your energy.
