We couldn't eat it all so the dogs were happy tonight.

I believe I have some LGD skills having spent a bit of time outside at night with Merlin back in Dec.

I was trying to get some pictures of the two dogs together but Thor never cooperated. He had finished eating and when I reached down to pick up his bowl. He picked it up in his mouth and went running. He didn't take it far but just dropped it thinking he had done a good thing.

We had to work on some food aggression issues with the pup but he hasn't been away from his litter mates for but a week so that was expected. He made the mistake of getting into Maisy's bowl once but I doubt he will do that again any time soon. They both growl at the sheep if they get too curious but that's what I want them to do because of the location of where we feed. I mess with their food a little just so they know that I am not going to take it away.

You know those LGD breeds, always thinking for themselves!

I am glad that Maisy likes him and looked after him until she figured he would be ok while she went back to work. Maisy is a keeper, for sure! They look like partners already!

When we got Trip, all Paris wanted to do was eat him. Since we were in the middle of the move, he spent 3 weeks in the chicken coop.LOL

I mess with my dogs food just to remind them that I am the ALPHA dog.

Cheep Cheep will follow Teresa around like a puppy dog. If she wants feed she will run to catch up to her and gently peck her leg. I had always heard that wild turkeys weren't too bright but I'm seeing otherwise. I was putting some sealer on some lawn furniture today and she kept trying to fly to the top of it so I had to put her in one of the pens. She sits right at your feet so she isn't hard catch.

Whenever we are out there with the turkey the other poultry assumes there is food coming soon because we feed her by herself. She spends time in the pens with both flocks but the chickens in the smaller pen have never accepted her.

I swear that is a WILD turkey, lol!

Cheep Cheep is so darn cute. I know y'all are enjoying every moment with her. Not too many people that have a pet wild turkey.
