Livestock Guard Puppies

We are thrilled to announce our sweet puppies are now with us on the farm.  Zelda & Zoey are the sweetest fluff balls ever.

Christmas Puppies

Zelda & Zoey

In just a few more days we will welcome these cute little fluff ball sisters to our farm. We are so very excited about finally getting Live Stock Guard dogs to protect our precious animals, and for this to happen at Christmas time is so very special. 

I have done lots of research on these beautiful creatures over the last year and a half, and I'm very happy with what I have learned. I have also spoken with lots of Great Pyrenees owners, and I see why these dogs are nicknamed "The Gentle Giant". I have heard nothing but good about this breed, and I feel very confident that they will be a perfect fit to our farm. 

Chickens

     We have had our chickens for about a year and a half now. We are currently waiting for eggs, the hens should start up again anytime.  We have several new hens that are due to start laying.  We really miss our eggs, but we are able to buy farm eggs from a wonderful little local store we shop at.
     We also have two roosters, one will soon be going to live on my mother's farm. 
    The chickens have been a lot of enjoyment for us, it's so relaxing to watch them scratch, peck, bath and sing their egg laying song.

Strawberries

Spring is here, and we are excited to have strawberries ripening in the garden.
