We also caught that snapping turtle this morning! Just in time to protect the new ducklings. The...

    Bubblingbrooks Journey - Salut!

    That's the lesson I learned today while I was driving a little old pick-up with a dog box on the back with two skinny dogs it it. I was thinking how at first glance I must look like a hunter who doesn't take care of her dogs. Who would've know I was taking two strays to get medical treatment...

    I am crying and it's not even 7am!! :hit That's a beautiful story SD and i will remind myself of it anytime I get that hopeless feeling. The funniest thing about that story is that I just realized yesterday the smaller dog is a boy dog and not a girl, just like in your story! He is warming up to...

    Ohhh they're making me crazy. The one dog (the REAL skinny one) does NOT stop barking, whining, howling when I'm outside. I was working on finishing my new duck pen and playing with the kids on the swing set and that dog didn't give it a rest. He probably burned any calories he might have gained...

    I've adopted from our local AC and they do not have funding to care for a dog in this condition. They would just put him down. I also had a friend contact the office and speak with someone she knows there. At least with me they have a chance but I will see if they have a microchip. I will see...

    Thank you to everyone and all the good advice. When I let the dogs out of the garage this morning the uhh taller (dare i say bigger) dog went after one of my ducklings straight away. So I just don't know what to do. Right now the tall one is locked in the dog kennel we use for the ducks night...

    While DH was on his way home from work at 10pm tonight he saw a truck stop on the side of the road. He then saw the truck take off again. When he got to that part of the road there were two dogs on the side of the road. Now, we live in an area where we see huntin' dogs all the time. We see them...

    Right now we're using it for storage. It's leaking water and the roof needs to be replaced. I would love to replace it with a green roof and make it a food storage house. However, the green roof is tough to find so I'll probably just do an insulated roof and try it for food storage. First I need...

    Today we stayed local and did a little of this and a little of that. We went to a country store I've never been to before. I got some yummy butter beans, corn, and roasted peanuts (of course, this is VA). When I went to look at the chickens and other animals around back i seen they had about 8...
