Official Squatch Watchers

Yours are all big strong girls too. I got 3 ankle biters in my pack, and a pair of bigger doofus. For now.

I never really think of Sable as "big" at Just 60#.
She sure FEELS big if I grab her collar. Yeah she despises that. She freaks like a dog on a catch pole.

I really had discussed with hubs several times that we needed to go smaller with future dogs. I think he had me on mute or ignore.

Got the tin on the run roof, and started on the wire for the rest of it.

I will be glad to get the run finished so I don't need to lock up the bantam cochins every night!

Looking good Cappy! I am still amazed at the makeover that coop got.

Thanks, it now has glass over the two biggest windows for winter. I need to get electric over there for the water warmer and a small light.

Our older ones don't fight, but they aren't totally thrilled with the spawn of Satan..I mean Peach, especially when she eats the Energizer Bunny. We have a baby gate up to keep the big boy and her separated. One she becomes a normal dog he may be ok with her, but while she is in the mutant phase he just wants her to stay away from the whole inside if the house. For now he's being over protective of everything he deems his, which, of course, is everything.

We had a cat that hated the dog, until we moved. Then they were fine together!

I understand the situation of "that is mine, that's mine too. Nope MINE".
The Malamute here gets like that. It drives me a bit batty at times.

How's your weather today, we've got a fairly steady mist.

We are very windy and expecting to only get to MAYBE 50°.

I lol a bit about it.
Hubby bought me a corded leaf blower because the gas one is impossible for me to start.

I had raked a lot of leaves into the chicken runs. I expect that the water dishes will be full of leaves.

I also blew a giant pile into the garden. Those are likely right back where they were before I started.

Nature....making sure I have plenty to do.

I rarely do anything with leaves unless I want to put some in the runs or need to seed an area. With 13 acres of trees, it's just too much to think about taking them. I spend lots of time picking up branches for kindling.
