Goat Update- Day 2

The goat transitioning is going very well. Scarlet and Rosemary hung out in the paddock yesterday with no trouble. Rosemary is ridiculously adorable and is so calm! She did get excited this morning to be let out and tried to jump the water pail- she's agile for an end table. Scarlet is adjusting, she hangs out near Rosemary, but is missing the affection from her sister. Hopefully, they'll continue to bond. Scarlet has to be confused about last weekends events.

Petunia has been a darling little addition to Lazy Danes. She's eating well, has figured out I'm mom and follows me all around. Yesterday was a beautiful day so after a nap on my lap in front of the computer we took a romp around outside. She stays right with me and hollers if she can't see me. She met the chickens and ducks and nibbled some grass in the field.

Pretty Petunia

What are those?

On to more bad news. Rupert needs a new home. He needs a home without small children, with out livestock or small animals, and where he can be the dominant or only dog. Since the drama of last weekend he is relentless in his desire to get at the livestock, and he has been in an altercation (no damage to either, thank goodness) with Bo. Rupert is an incredibly sweet, submissive and gentle dog to me and Chuck and I would love to find him a good home where he can't get himself into the kind of trouble he is determined to find on the farm. I have been in touch with a rescue group, but if anyone is interested or can help find a home for him, please let me know. He will be a year old at the end of the year, neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on shots, house-trained, and would be a great running buddy. I love Rupert, I just can't give him what he needs.

Look at that sweet face!
