Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RebeccaBoyd]

Happy Pony Sunday from my new dog, Charlie, whom I’ve known for 15 minutes

Hi Charlie. He is a pretty boy. I love big dogs, the bigger the better. To me anything under 50lbs is considered a little dog and I refer to those as "Kick Me" dogs. No I do not kick them, may want to, but I do not. I want a GSD one day, a big black and red saddleback long hair variety. I want a pup though. I know there are people out there who rescue adults, I prefer to raise my dogs from a pup. I feel more comfortable, especially with bigger dogs if I know how they were raised and did the foundation training myself.

Okay this is getting out of hand...

It has been sunny and then it was snowy and as I'm typing, it is now sunny. This has been happening a countless number of times today.
SOMEONE GET ME OUT OF THIS GODAWFUL WEATHER!
The chickens stayed inside all day regardless.

Friday - sunny and +14C (55F)
Saturday - pouring rain and +8C (48F)
Today - snow all day cold wind, and -4C (24F)

Sooooo - I got ya beat on the crazy weather!

Charlie looks like he wants to have a forever home. I really, REALLY hope it works out for both of you.

I think I owe tax.
This is Little. I don't know if I've posted many -- or any? -- pictures of her. She's one of my original flock, and will be 4 years old in 11 days.

Such a beauty

Love those wattles

Penelope is such a beautiful fancy looking girl

She is an old girl- um 8 years soon I guess. Not sure of her breed. She is a quiet lovely girl, and pretty much rules the roost here. Both she and Marty are Mr P’s favourites.

Don’t ask. I have no idea what she is doing! Sleeping on that stool??

Sounds like around here. Mother Nature is menopausal.

I call my little dog "trip hazard." Hubby likes big dogs, but I was trampled by a great dane and scratched up a lot so I told him absolutely no danes. Too big.
My childhood neighbor bred german shepherds, and also bred chihuahuas (never together! ) and while I love gsd, I don't want the maintenance and training of keeping one. I'm 100% a little lap dog fan, I don't want my legs to go numb when they cuddle on my lap haha.

Tax, I love my broody poofy chicken

The 2 new ones

Speckled sussex (and miss bossy pants) who tried hopping up on Pear's back.

And the light Brahma who is shy and inquisitive

And most of the crew...demonstrating the appropriate dubbing of Blurr and Focus.

Oi, tell me about it. It's like Daylight Savings Time is tricking Mother Nature and now can't decide whether winter should stay or go. Perhaps DST isn't triggering all of this.

The other day, it was 50F.....and snowing.....
