Nell has given birth to four beautiful puppies, one of which we're keeping to train and work here on the farm. We decided to name our pup (a female) Fly. A name not very common in our area, but repeated several times in her bloodline's background. The puppies are three weeks old and thriving.
I have finally found a good, easy, and consistent way of keeping Boone working calmly while working in the barnyard. Whenever Boone raises his tail it is a sign that he has stopped thinking about what he should be doing, and instead he just wants to play. Every time he raises his tail I give him a gentle reprimand. This keeps his attitude calm and workmanlike, making chores much easier on everybody.
