Hello
:) My name is Lauren and as of this point in time we own 3 dogs, 2 Labs and a chihuahua. The labs are 8 this Christmas Eve (I remember getting these guys in third grade like it was yesterday!) while the chihuahua, Sammy just turned two
:) My family and I own a hobby farm that consists of 3 dairy goats (with another on the way once we move), a whether, 4 horses, a barn cat (2 more on the way!), 2 house rabbits, and once we move onto the property we just purchased, some chickens. We are moving onto 40 acres and (hopefully!) I will be getting a Border Collie or Australian Shepherd puppy for agility, frisbee, trail riding and trick training
:) We are also getting 2 Rhodesian Ridgebacks for livestock protection sometime next March-ish
:) I've always trained our dogs in agility, basic obedience and trick training but our labs are getting old (the one I've always worked with and is my dog has OCD in his joints so it's a bit much to ask of him
:) ) and the chihuahua really dislikes it. He prefers to pester the goats and horses whiile we ride. He also likes to ride the horses double with us
:) It's the cutest thing to watch him up with my little sister cantering around with the happiest look on his face
:) Well, I just wanted to introduce myself and I plan on hanging around, although I doubt I'll post much with how dang busy I am
:) Next weekend we get to start moving boxes. Yippee! And the weekend after that I get to fence over a mile of fencing. Fun
:) It'll be the best Saturday ever
;) Nah, fencing isn't as bad as, well, I can't think of anything other than cleaning out the clogged septic tank O_O
