Early this a.m. the Ace Hardware lady asked me, "Who's driving your van?" I about had a heart attack til I saw what she meant!

She is sweet!!! Thanks for sharing pics...gotta find one of Sugar to post soon...she is actually smaller and lighter weight than any of my bantam breed birds!!!

No guarding help there...but by golly don't knock on the door before you come in to rob, maim, kill me because she will bark so ferociously!!! LOLOL

Luckily mine looks meaner than she is. She loves kids, usually. Doesn't care too much for strange men. Especially wearing hats.

I love fat dog has a deep bark

Helps when any idiot wants to knock on my door.

My rottie mix has a nice deep bark but when he thinks whatever he is barking at is heading toward him he runs ... AWAY...the other day DH came around the house and Gator was on the back porch with me...he barked and when DH ran at him Gator almost broke the dog door running in it!! He is a sweetie with the chicks but he is a lazy couch dog,no good for guarding my farm!

Here he is hard at 'WORK'...this is how he spends several hours a day...the rest sprawled on his back on same couch!lol

I would say that's a GREAT dog...unless...you're in the fertilizer business!

Wish I knew how she figured it all out on her own

seems like from the beginning she knew what it meant when I said "let's go check the chickens"

Well, she is smart enough to put 2 and 2 together. mommy smells like chickens and goes outside a lot so WE are going to see the chickens! LOL I'm telling you, Nicole taught her to read....uhm,...I mean.... understand words.

I swear the dog is as smart as a 4 or 5 year old kid..... until she eats poop
