Daniel, you do have a heart of gold as does my son who is 8 years old.
I will tell you the same as I tell him because at times the big heart can hurt you.
Leave the strays and sick alone, please.
A long time ago my buddys Mom found a sick fawn in the pasture.
She tried to nurse it back.

I guess you never worked 12 hour shifts or had a chance of being forced into a double shift.
Thats a common lunch bag when you do.
Yes I must be a evil person because I do not love my chickens as much as my kids.
I would send my own to the oven if I got off a night shift at 3AM...
Did anyone think the guy might work an odd shift and his lunch was in the bag?
My flock is 100 feet from my bedroom, I cannot hear them, but I have a well built coop ,,a neighbor a few hundred feet away should not hear them. I don't want to hear my own.
For the life of me I cannot understand...
Luka is the most mellow dog I have ever owned.
One accident in the house, one pencil. and one TV cable chewed on.
His bark at 17 weeks sounds like a cannon,,, I like it.
He doesn't bother the chickens, turkeys, or cat at all.
His personality is aloof, and it doesn't bother me.
He has 20 acres...
I use Cetol on my boats teak, there is a lot of it, it last an average of 3 years before anything needs done.
Varnish looks good but sucks, it starts to peel after a few months of weather and the poly is not much better.
I would think 3 or 4 coats of Cetol and glueing down vinyl would be a...
My pigs only get milled grain and fresh food scraps and they are on a concrete slab, not dirt or mud.
Spoiled slop and mud are why many have to worry about worms and parasites, I pay a little more in feed for better quality meat.
He just started his 17th week.
OMG I cannot believe how good he is, I have never seen a dog so calm especially a puppy, he was great for a 2.5 hour car ride, didn't puke or anything, just layed around and watched the birds outside, came in and calmly made a few rounds thru the house, then...
That looks EXACTLY like the pups resulting from my male Brittany shacking up with my buddys prize beagle. WOW was he mad, however the pups were really cute and well behaved.
I'll get a pic of one that I know where it's living at.
The one thing we thought was weird is that all were colored the...

Actually I have many shotguns,,, .410, 28, 16, and 12Ga.
I just like the 10, with OO it is a cloud of death at 75 yards no pest has escaped from.
The idea of the "gentle giant" barking pooch when I'm not home and GF and kids are, is something I need, especially if they can be trained to watch...
Thanks for the fast replies, I'm going to look at a 18 week old male, good bloodlines and raised in a house and with goats, calves and kids so far.
I've done a lot of research, it's just good to hear from people not breeders trying to build up the breed.
Being good with kids and a LGD and not...
