Guess those mats came in pretty handy!

So excited for y'all! So are you driving up for the Nigerian show? Didn't realize how close it was.

Hoping for a safe and smooth trip! Be sure to update us when they arrive.

Can't wait to watch on the live stream
I remember the live chat last year for the sale. Think they will still have it again this year.

I have decided that I can't go
Neighbors behind us do serious fireworks on the 4th and Angel takes them really bad
Goats do to but Angel really bad
I have this fear of her running off or something bad
I will bring her in the house

I bet you will have her in the house cuddled up with you!
Not sure why Pyrs are so sensitive to fireworks/gunshots etc... but I here this a lot. Glad you will be there for her.
Does she do ok in storms?

No not real good in storms either
Someone suggested that there may have been a lightening strike near her at some point
The first time she got shocked by the electric fence she hid in the woods for 2 hours

My Pyrs are scared of thunderstorms too. I think you are a good doggie-daddy for staying home to take care of Angel during the fireworks.

We had a false start
Loaded goats and the girls headed out to meet the other breeders they were doing the caravan with
2 miles from home got call they were running behind
Goats unloaded

Gonna be a long night for Maurine?

Gonna be a long night for Maurine?

Yep it sure is
Taking guidance from the experienced folks
Gates open up at 7am
So you leave so that you can stop
An hour away get breakfast milk your goats ( all of ours are 3 times per day)water them and walk them around and check for snot or anything because after you enter the gates you can't let any goats out until you are next at vet check
And check in is all day

Hmmmm thinking Angel is an "angel" in disguise.
You get to stay home and NOT have to deal with crazy.

One of our dogs ... he had no issues ever ... he was about 8 months or so when he went to his home (Pyr) well a week or so in the property beside him that literally was ON THE FENCE LINE was logged! That equipment is huge, loud, and it was right there... it went on for days. After that he got skitsy.... then he was fine for a long time then after he got neutered at 18 months he got fearful off and on for a while. He seems to really only get bad if it is a "in the red" storm- IOW extremely severe/dangerous. His siblings... I own, could care less about anything. I think the logging event and his age had something to do with it. Some dogs are just sensitive the sounds. I commend you for working with it.


Maurine is going to be exhausted! Let us know when she is on the road... you know many here will be praying for travel safety.
