Howdy Everyone Fred Jones here. I raise cows, sheep, ducks, chickens, dog and cat currently in beautiful Colorado near the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. I have raised goats, pigs and donkeys too. Happy to be here and to learn and share about Homesteading.

Good Morning Fred and Welcome to HT!

 

[Fred Jones]

Well Good Morning to you! I get up early cause my Rooster is lazy and I got to wake him and remind him to crow.
Sure is a handsome dog in your Avatar (funny word) Collie?

 

[GTX63]

One of five.

 

[Fred Jones]

One of five.

Five? I bet that is fun. I would have more dogs but Mrs. Jones says I have enough animals. My Great Grandma Sebree had a Collie named Sniffles. I always thought that was a funny name.

There is zero chance of driving thru the gate non stop up to the house. They were designed by God to wait for you in the middle of your driveway, until just in front of your bumper.
They are learned in coming up under your right forearm while sitting at the desk and lifting your hand off the mouse in expectation of pets and rubs.

I don't know who said it but always thought it true Dog is God spelled backwards. Now are those purebreeds? Do you raise to sell?

 

[GTX63]

No. We sold 4 from the last litter and it about killed my wife and kids. Now I have to plan trips to take my family to visit the others....

 

[Fred Jones]

Yeah darn it just can't keep em all. Kids and puppies sure get attached
