It is that time of year when everything virtually explodes and you find yourself running in circles, picking up pieces of life, mending this, moving that, cleaning here, doing that. And cooking. The last few days seem like chaos. It all began with a murderous puppy fight that began at 4 am. I actually thought…

Oh, So Close to a Perfect Picture!
I was this close… [ ] note the size… *this* close to taking the perfect picture yesterday. Well, maybe not technically or artistically for some people… I’m no Ansel Adams! But when it comes to *MY* category of “working cow dog photos”, this was was almost there! Taking photos of working dogs is HARD!…
All Day Long
If I thought the garden would get planted, the lawn mowed, the house cleaned, the dishes done, the laundry folded, the food cooked, this blog written… I would do this ALL DAY LONG. Follow these precious pups around and photograph them. I mean… a *bad* photographer with a *rotten* *cheap* camera could take good photos…
Rush Rush
Hi, folks! Remi, here. That Lady-with-the-food asked me to stand in and tell you she had to go to town first thing this morning… Don’t know what she was doing in “town”, I don’t even know what “town” means! She was grumbling about “cooking”… but I know I like her cooking, so I don’t see…
Wet Pups
I rolled out of bed this morning and stumbled into the living room. I did a double take… There was SNOW on the ground. Good Grief! It wasn’t much, but there nonetheless. By the time I made it outside, most of the snow was melted. The puppies looked like this: Cold and shivering, they mobbed…
Gardening Dogs
Do you know the old joke about the guy who wanted to be a turkey farmer??? He returned twice to the hatchery where he’d purchased his turkeys… each time saying all his turkeys had died. The third time the hatchery owner asked him specifically what he was doing with them that he had such a…
Puppy Video at 6 Weeks
This has taken WAY too much time… and I don’t like it… I thought I could remove the original sound and cover it with music… but somehow I couldn’t figure out how… so if you are an Imovie expert… please contact me and tell me how to do this. I KNOW it can be done,…
Disagreements
I am working on a puppy video… but between having only a little tape, eleven puppies, and now, a dead battery… I’ve been slowed down. Sigh. I’ll get it tomorrow. But for now… here’s an insight into puppy disagreements and family dynamics. Puppy disagreements from Carol Greet on Vimeo.
Past 24 Hours
Day before yesterday we had snow in the morning, it switched to rain… then the sun came out.. then this hailstorm was accompanied by thunder and lightning… all in 12 hours… Wonderful Wyoming! Last night coming home from painting up at the Mills place, these three toms were busy fighting and strutting. By the time…
Ick!
The major difference with this litter and the one in 2007 is that without 6 or 8 inches of snow to keep them confined.. this litter is EVERYWHERE! They are all over my lawn (and pooping all over it too!) They even sneak under a fence next to their wood shed home. They are at…
Bruner Draw
This is Bruner Draw. Named for the man who homesteaded with a small dugout located on the skyline to the right of the most left juniper tree… the fenceline here separates our private ground from BLM. This is the “badlands”. The green in the bottom of this draw also hides a boggy mucky mess that…
