What a beauty!

 

My latest favorite TV advertisement:

 

 

Now every time  Mr. UPS or Mr. FedEx comes up the road, I start singing... "The Peanut Butter Box is Here...."

Pat just told me our cat almost became part of the food chain, she said as the cat was making her way to the house became wary, looking around being cautious, when Pat called the cat she made a beeline for the house.

 

The owl swooping down upon her from above miscalculated by the cats dash to greet Pat, missed dinner for her fledglings. The hunt goes on.

 

We've had this stray cat for six years, this is a record. Usually gone in two.

Not sure how much longer we'll have a cat.

Me n the Meeha Mirror watchin' a movie while on resting duty today.

Looks like rest in „Big“ ...😄

 

 

No he's not lazy..
The swelling on his white paw is going down after he kicked a wasp last night.
At first we thought he hurt his paw after a big jump, but then we see that there was a big wasp nest under the cherry tree.
A cortisone shot helps him reduce the swelling a little faster.

 

The doc told us to reduce his activity and we ask how to do that with this „hyperactive“ dog- teeny.
but today he enjoys his rest and likes it.

@Tractorhead  What kind of dog is that?  We're fostering a dog that looks a lot like that (except she's black) -- same long body and huge paws, stretches out forever just like yours is doing in the photo, also very active.  Do you have any more photos?

Such a GREAT rescue,story !

My boy Jeffrey and Jeffrey with one of his buddies at day play. Jeffrey was a rescue. I got him from the shelter after he was found roaming the streets severely injured. He needed surgery to close him back up. He has turned out to be a great dog. So glad our paths crossed.

If he has the Ritch on his back, he may be one with a color defect.

 

Leo is a six month old purebred Rhodesian Ritchback.

This breed was originally bred in Africa to hunt lions and guard settlements.

They are great family dogs but very demanding when it comes to training.

You need a very consistent hand.

The white pawn and white breast are usually undesirable in this breed,
but we especially fall in love with him while he has the white pawn and white breast.

 

He was the first of 7 siblings who decided to come with us.
That means we didn't choose him, he's chooses us.

 

a few more pictures?

 

ok..

 

 

he is a good Buddy and Pet.

Sometimes he is lemme say a little extreme Powerful or better to say „hyperactive“ 

and it seems he don‘t know the word „filigran movement“.

He love large walks and agility training the whole day,

but we must stop him to take care on his hips while he‘s growing and he’s still too young for so much Powersports.

Otherwise later hip troubles can occur.

 

he has an extremely friendly nature but he is also very clumsy

Lot‘s of training with him let him go in the right direction,

but actually he is a teeny and he forgot things he allready learned within seconds.

This is Beans who we lost in February to a brain tumor. She was 15 and a daddy's girl. The most gentle dog I've ever known. RIP sweetheart. The second pic is the terrorist, speed demon with unfortunate ears. Mama was abused and rescued. Abbey was born in March and the runt of 11 so had to be bottle fed. She just turned 4 months and will no doubt be a cherished family member. She's a nut!

Well not quit a pet but he keeps the tree rat population down. 😂

Earlier this summer we were sitting on the back patio enjoying adult beverages and watching the tree rats raiding the bird feeders.

 

Alla sudden, out of the shrubberies comes a Red Fox on the run, grabs one of the tree rats just like in your pic and trotted off toward the tree line.

 

It was pretty cool to see this up close and personal.  I don't think the fox knew we were there, and even if he did, he was more hungry than he was wary of us.  It was only about 20 feet away.

The Treasurer considers these her 'pets':

 

 

 

Judging from that bulge in the doe's belly, there's gonna be more soon.

While cute and all they are destructive as hell. They eat everything but the rhubarb. They’ll munch a thorny blackberry stalk like it’s jerky. But do feel bad for the little bastards when the snow flies. So we put a bucket of corn out for them every night. Life of Riley.

I stop doing a garden. Besides never getting any help the deer figured out 6’ fence was doable.

Funny how regions differ so. 

 

Here in the forest there's so much native food the deerseses will just take a quick glance at a 4 ft tall fence and leave. Too much work.
