That's a good idea. I'm supposed to take a couple dogs to work at the sheep farm today, it's gonna be hot.

We carried him to a mountain stream & stuck his feet in the water, trying to cool him through the pads, rather than risk sending him into shock by dunking him. Lost him twice...he didn't come back the 2nd time.
 
We are getting the heat for this whole week.  Ugh!  Ugh!  That's all I have to say about it.  Ugh!  Going out to give the chickens fresh water a few times a day, and, I will spray them down at times, they've gotten so they just stand there and let me.  I also really soak their favorite area down for them a couple of times a day.  Man it's hot!  I know, some have it warmer than 100 to 102, but we aren't used to that here, especially for a couple of weeks in a row.   :/   


I think our weather reversed itself these past couple weeks. Been in mid 80 to low 90. Not any more it's back today through the week.
 
I do not know yet. On one hand, if I got full size, I could sell milk and train them to pull carts. On the other, smaller ones would eat less and I would not have the hassle of selling milk.
i dont have time for milk, and all the goats even cross mutts are wicked expensive around here

Liz and Banti, I waited too long on the t-shirts. Sangria is a yes, pink is a no.
Black, drk brwn or green?
green

That is what I went with. Now the store won't let me check out. It also tried to get me to buy yet another GFM. It has put one in my cart every time I have bought something lately.
i hate that store

How sad. There's a baby pool the dogs can go in, there is also a line of trees outside the field, my boy tends to work some from the shade of the trees, he has was it called a strong presence.
