Shetland sheep have changed my life and touched my heart. They have brought me joy, adventure and serenity. Follow along as I live each day influenced by memories of my mighty flock of mini sheep ~ aided and abetted by "Bellamica", the English Shepherd,"Sable", my livestock guardian dog and "Hero" the rescue dog that stole my heart! You'll also meet many of the homeless dogs that I rescue and rehome as part of Bluff Country Canine Rescue.

No Time to Chat....
I'm fencing.
Or at least my version of fencing.
I sectioned off a small piece of the backyard and the area between the house and the ewe pasture to give the girls some decent grazing while I'm working on fencing in the ditches and the front yard.
I've got all the posts in now and just have to run the wire...
I am going to get this done before I leave for California!!!!!
FLASH FLOOD says...
"I appreciate the fresh grass! Mom said I should also mention that I am beautiful and I am FOR SALE! She says I get to go to someplace with more pastures...."
Oh, my Beautiful Baby Girl!! You CAN DO IT!!!! I know you can! I'm thinking that today is your last day of testing? At the very most, it will be tomorrow. Take a DEEP breath ~ get lots of oxygen to all those magnificent brain cells (they're fairly bursting with power and knowledge that you inherited from your brilliant Mother ~ who had the good sense to plan a trip to come see her Beautiful Baby Girl!) and it'll be over before you know it! Just think, in two days, we'll be having dinner in San Francisco!!! I can't wait....
Your fencing looks pretty good to me! The important part is that the sheep are on the other side, and seem committed to staying there - you must be doing something right! Congrats! Enjoy your trip...
Yay, happy sheep, happy mom and soon to be happy daughter. Have a fab trip, it's well deserved :o) My girls are back on grass too and they're VERY happy... I'm a bit worried but locking the smallest in the shed at night.
Flash Flood, you are gorgeous! Tell Mom to get that fencing up.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever thought about buying electronet fencing from Premier? That's what we use and it's so easy to move around.
ReplyDeleteThat's right you're coming to California! Thank goodness, these tests are KILLING me, I could really use some Mom-Time! Hurry :)
ReplyDeletePS - That picture of flash flood is beautiful!
