we used to make them smoke a Black Cat.......

and make them fight......

Good reading here....

I have a few cows and calves. Looks like I'll have to sell all of them though. It's been an education for sure. I bought my first ones about 4 years ago. I had a 6 six week old bull calf turn up with a bad foot this spring/summer .Took him to the vet and they worked on him. He looks ok now ,but another abscess came up after the vet trip. I got him in a small pen thinking I'd have to catch his head , but the little fellow let me walk up to him, pick up his rear foot and cut it open. That surprised me.

I love salamanders! Not been one around here this year......maybe I smell funny or something.

Richard boy found one out in the yard a couple years ago. He was dried to a crisp. Richard boy goes up to his grandpa, also named Richard and says, " Grandpa! This lizard needs some sunscreen!"

Well, he actually pronounced it "skunscreen".

How come you are going to have to sell them?

May not be keeping the farm.....

Hilarious!!!

Smiling here!

Good lookin' boy! The boy is wise you should listen to him more.....

Mama must be gorgeous.

You're a lucky man Jim!


Wheat harvest is done here, took a day and a half.....

I didn't even bother going up to the hills to see how it was going. Stayed down in the river bottom all day.

Sorry about the wheat Sam. Good thing you have some in the bin. Hope you topped the market.


Wife found a couple dead cows today. No real reason for it.

Then hired man sees a couple big white dogs running the cows. Looked like great Pyrenees.

Looks like these dogs ran a couple to death the other day and were out for more fun today.

Flipping 2017!

Damn!

I'd cut your losses with those dogs asap.

I'd think that is a given Barry.

This is a great thread. Thanks boys for sharing with us!

Yes it is. Most people don't realize how interesting their lives are to other people. Unless they live and work in the city. Then the opposite applies.

I wish Photobucket hadn't turned to crap.

This is an amazing slice of life for us urban dwellers and much appreciated. Thanks guys.

We didn't sell a bushel and the market is dropping like a rock.....


Chit, starting to feel a little sick!



But whatever, damn dogs!



I'm a little surprised you have dog trouble out in the country where you're at. Hope you get it solved ASAP without any hard feelings.


We only have trouble here close to town where we winter and calve. Nothing out in the hills.

We have the problem half solved. But one got away.

I was not there so it is kind of second hand to me, but the hired man thought it was great Pyrenees dogs. Be funny for them to leave a flock of sheep somewhere and chase cows.

Could have been some other type of dog, but he did say they were white.

I have neighbors to the north of me about 5 miles, and we see their dogs once in a while, but other than that we are pretty dog free out here.

We are probably 7 miles from the rez, but anymore those dogs dont make it too far off before they get shot.

Dad said when he was a kid that there would be 10 or 15 in a pack that would come out of the rez or Harlem.

Those dogs would come through a farmstead and wipe out the chickens and cats. Kill sheep and kill your dogs. Tear up the hogs even.

Dad said they would catch a couple saddle horses and start running them down, killing when they could. Soon all the neighbors would be chasing dogs.

Have not been a problem for years.




New people move into the valley to the north and let their dogs run. A couple dogs get killed for chasing cows or killing lambs and I guess they get the message.
