People ask me dog training tips quite often. Maybe because, on occasion, my dogs do behave wonderfully well. It’s not a permanent state, though… and I take the blame for it. There are some things my dogs do fairly well… others… like being anti-social with other dogs… I haven’t DIScouraged, simply because of where I…

A Walk
When Victoria comes for a visit, we HAVE to take the dogs for a walk. Mine, because it helps keep any crankiness level low with the visitors… Hers, because they’re “townies” and when they’re here, they just want to RUN. And Jazz and Sadie can outrun all of my dogs! My dogs have to stop…
Maybe Next Time
Elsa continues to limp along… licking her paw… Though she wants desperately to go to the corral and on the feed trailer in the mornings… I’ve forced her to stay inside. She gets the elevator treatment getting in and out of vehicles. (And… boy, is she overweight, what a lard bucket to pick up!) She…

Sunshine and Twilight
Yesterday and today were Cowboy Days. I like these days. It’s quiet. It’s relatively easy since the cows know where to go. It’s fairly easy on the dogs since cows don’t hardly fight without their calves by their side. I can move a big bunch by myself – which I enjoy immensely – so long…
The Job is Finished
When you take cattle on a new trail… they usually don’t like it. It’s new. They don’t know if there’s a mountain lion around that rock, or they get the whoops!-where’d -my-calf-go-to-now? syndrome, and the ever popular whine of BUTHOMEISTHATWAY! But the alternative was to trail through two other pastures full of cows, so we…
Battlescars
After my wreck yesterday afternoon, and then all the bawling I heard last night, I anticipated a big mess this morning. It must have taken them just til this morning to find each other… because as we rode out, no calves or cows were in sight. They had reunited and then took themselves to the…
Wordless Wednesday – “My Little Gal”

First of all, here’s the photo of the young golden eagle from yesterday. My camera was left in the car and I was too lazy to walk out in the cold and retrieve it last night. I just hope he remains intimidated by all my dogs and the puppies don’t resemble fat little bunnies… ***************************************************************************…
HappyDance
Yesterday we gathered up the last 50 yearling bred heifers for sale in Riverton Tuesday. It gave Dally the chance to practice something fairly repetitive since we had done this just last week. I’ve dumped her out of the pickup and am sending her in a straight line the way she is facing. That meant…
A Diet Tip for Thanksgiving Week
Unfortunately… I could stand to lose a few pounds… Can’t seem to magically make them disappear no matter how hard I wish them away… But I have come up with something that just might work! Hold the presses, folks… the answer for overweight Americans is right here in my backyard! It’s Dally! I know you’re…
Once Again
Look closely… See anything different, weird, unusual? Oh, sure… there’s the cute little nose and whiskers… but that’s not what I’m talking about. Look again. You’ve missed it, haven’t you? Well… Here’s a hint. Then there’s the first incidence of this happening… It’s weird… It’s true… And she’s done it again… Dally has mothered her…
