the "weather" rain again, 3 days now and back to 50's
things continue…. Malabar, in front of Echinacea, in front of Madder….inopportune place, but There self seeded i will accept. the neighbors hybrid wolf dogs loose today. Not since the initial days when Tay and I arrived here and we "had words". Goats gathered tight and froze, staring. It is not good, living without Dog.
Old guy (years ago) next door. Had a hybrid Wolf.
the owner said- no hands, nothing near his mouth. There was always danger.

A Missing a link in your personal chain… can never be replaced.. and if…would the next dog need much training,, or does breed play a big part in “natural protector?

way back in early days in New Mexico…El Cerro Mission…
i got a hybrid pup. He was Beyond BeautyFull and Fine.
his name
Winter Sky at Twilight
you can picture him from that…also had my road dog,
Chongo. so they had each other but he was bored. He began jumping the 6 ft chain link fence that surrounded the few
acres of my place, running horses. It was amazing to
watch him but….i gave him to a Fish and Game officer.

it does. but this place is complicated…they would need a sense too of the large space, the 6 acres I don’t know how common that is. Had never needed that before. Tay just
DID.
