You might say that we are going a bit dog crazy around this house. Best Friends called me the other week about an abandoned golden German shepherd. Well Dana decided to check her out first in order to convince me that we didn't need another dog, even if it was a German shepherd. He came home all excited about this dog insisting that I just had to go and see her. After talking nonstop about this dog- rather unusual for Dana- I agreed to go and see this wonderful dog. Guess what? We ended up bringing her home with us.
It is hard to fathom someone dropping a sweet and loving dog like Lady off and abandoning her. There was another German shepherd with Lady, but was killed by a vehicle before Best Friends could rescue it. Dana has always wanted a dog that would want to ride along in the truck with him. Lady loves pickup trucks and as soon as Dana starts his up, she wants to jump in. I kid Dana that Lady is his new girlfriend.
The most exciting news of all on our farm is that our dear little chicks from this spring, which have grown into nice fat hens, have started laying eggs. They should the way Dana feeds them by hand and pampers the dear things. Even I throw scraps out to them. We now gather light brown speckled, white, and dark brown eggs each day. What fun! So we are a'buzzin up here in the autumn mountains of Tennessee.
