Double Yolker Day 17 And Alive!

[ChickNanny13]

Got Candy Aug 2000, she LOVED to GO ... Had a bag that looked like a purse so she went EVERYWHERE with me, no one every knew & I took her everywhere in that purse. She was a "fake" Chi, never had the attitude nor yappy, just plain SWEET. When we returned to HI to take care of my parents, I went through 2yrs of prep with the Dept of Ag so I didn't have to put her in quarantine, she'd die due to separation anxiety ... We both would. I got lucky with the airlines in misunderstanding a note the Vet wrote, so she was able to ride in cabin with me instead of having to go cargo (Nov 2010). She did not like it here, I could tell, she then started getting sick around Christmas. Tests & meds until March 2011 she started having seizures, April it was time to let her journey the Rainbow Bridge. We still miss her

Then we have Callie who is a Staffordshire Terrier mix. She always seems to pose for pictures. They're both absolute sweethearts.

I grew up with a border collie. Such a loyal and protective dog.

Fun to see all the adorable pups while we wait on the twins to be born. I would name them Zig and Zag. Here's my chicken wrangler, Brody

This is Lola, she's usually found with her sidekick (my 16 month old son) getting in ALL kinds of trouble. He's my little Dennis the Menace and she's an enabler.

I never imagined this thread would become so big and as awesome as it is! I just want to thank everybody for their posts and their dogs and their stories! It really brings everyone together! I love the name suggestions! I was thinking about writing everyone’s down and putting them in a randomized app and it’ll chose the winner?! What do y’all think? I love the duck dogs and the support for all of those who have lost their fur babies. I send my love to the owners. I love the duck dog and the chicken ranglers. I love this thread not just cause of the twins but because of all the great people coming together!

People sometimes just don’t think that that’s a wild animal and they will act accordingly. People should be more informed on the dangers. A male is dangerous especially during mating season. They become very territorial.

Not just the bucks, though where I grew up, a farmer lost an entire herd of cattle to a bull elk. It got into the pasture, and just went on a rampage goring the guy's steers in the gut. Those that didn't die immediately had to be put down.

When my Aussie mix was a pup, about ten weeks old, I was out walking her and had a doe come at us. She was on one side of the road, I crossed to the other side to go by her. She looked at me, looked at my dog... pinned her ears back and charged us both. I grabbed a two-by-four off the side of the road and came around after her with it, she put on the brakes, backed off, and slunk away. A two-hundred-pound Muley doe is nothing to mess with, if you're not armed, and I've no doubt she'd have killed my pup. That doe wasn't protecting a fawn, either - wrong time of year. I've heard of several instances in which a deer will go after a small dog purely to kill it, not out of any perceived threat.
