A gentleman caller

He is shy.  He is bullied by Star and Ebony.  The girls don't fuss over him like the others who have visited them.  He prefers the company of people.  But he will discretely get the job done.  And in 6 weeks he will return from whence he came.

This handsome fellow was one of Sherry's bottle babies.  Mark and John needed a billy goat and he was available so he went to their house.  They liked his laid back attitude and decided to keep him.  At first unsure if he would attempt to sire any offspring, it appears he did serve the purpose for which he was obtained and so now he is visiting my herd to accomplish the same task.  I'm already excited about having kids on the ground again...especially since it is highly unlikely it will be 20 degrees below zero when birthing time is here in July.

Greyhound or Great Dane?

 If I could get the dogtrack people to put a coyote on the little thing the greyhounds chase around the track instead of a rabbit I think Thor could make me some money.

A coyote was in the back pasture and he knew he couldn't get through the gate so he flew down the alleyway between the fences, into the creek bed, up the other side, around and through the barbed wire fence back down into the creek and next thing I saw was the coyote running full out up the creek bed and back through the barbed wire fence with Thor right on his heels.  Not sure how far he chased the coyote but he came back winded with no apparent damage.  That puppy can really cover some ground when he is determined.

The other evening he had something stuck up a tree.  I thought it might be one of the cats.  When I approached the tree it jumped out and Thor chased it clear over to the big garage.  It was gray and I was pretty sure it was Emma Patches so I DID NOT tell Thor what a good job he did.  Later it was determined that Emma Patches was in the garage at the time of the incident so it must have been either a raccoon or and opossum.

Go Thor.  Good doggie.
