Thats Petunia.

You are not really supposed to give a LGD a lot of attention...or they might decide to be pets rather than employees.

Whoops.

Let him in and put him on the sofa.

 

[vharrison]

Is that a recent picture. Like, there is snow on the ground 😳

 

[FireFighterZero]

Haha!

Yep.

[vharrison]

Wow, you are serious when you say there are but two seasons.

Please, do tell, what do you do for heat?

My husband thinks Montana would be the ideal place to retire. Plenty of wide open spaces without people near one another. No, he has never been there LOL. Oh and he can not stand being cold. HAHAHAHA

Your dogs are fine looking hounds. Egor is too!

These two little turds showed up in February. About starved, half frozen and had worms. Probably dumped off. I think they are brother and sister. Took them to the vet and had them fixed and checked out. They've turned out to be the best little dogs. Very protective of us and the property. I think they were mistreated. I didn't really want any pets right now since I work all the time and am on the road a lot of weekends playing music. It's worked out good this year though since I've been home on the weekends more. They are house broken and ride well. Not sure what they are.

ONE blue eye??? If I woke up in the middle of the night and saw that looking at me I'd probably die.

Cool looking dogs... My brother's got one very similar and it's a smart good dog.

 

[Benjo75]

Yeah it's red at night if a light shines in it.

 

[Benjo75]

They have to sleep on their backs all spread out. They won't hardly sleep any other way.

 

[Fiddler]

If they are sleeping on their back they feel comfortable/safe there...

This old shack we live in.....plus a little shop....can cost 1000 to 1200 a month to heat.

But thats only three to 5 months......

Wow. Electric or propane? I know it isn't wood .

 

[stig]

Dried cow patties, maybe.

 

[vharrison]

Wow, holy smokes. Do you supplement with wood at all? Like, do you have a fireplace?

 

[FireFighterZero]

We have a fireplace but they are really more trouble than they are worth.

Trying to get someone to install a wood insert instead.

[FireFighterZero]

This is Rizzo.

A two year old Kangal-Pyerenees maybe?

I will let you know for sure.

His is joining our gaurd fleet.

 

[Burnham]

Damn, son...it's gonna cost you more to feed the guard fleet than you'll see in profits from all those woolie buggers.


Nice looking hound. All your new dogs are looking like fine beasts, imo.

 

[stig]

Them wolves better watch the Hell out.

Jim. there was an interesting study from Schweiz.
Turns out that wolfpacks with older animals in charge will bypass sheep that are guarded by that kind of dogs " Schutzhunde......I don't , regrettably, know the American word for them. Knowing me as you do, you can imagine how that pisses me off"
They have been there and know the cost.
Young wolves will try their luck and learn the cost.
Next time around they will just pass them by.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Our good friend and sheep mentor told us about the Govt Hunter that used to fly around killing coyotes.

Clark always had guard dogs....and there was never a coyote within three miles of his herd....according to the hunter.

 

[stig]

Guard dogs..........thanks!

 

[CurSedVoyce]
