Thank you, I keep thinking is it us? Are we being too ‘precious’ about our property? I doubt it, but things like this make you doubt yourself a bit don’t they.

No one has respect for anything or anyone
Anymore.

He is just as nosey as I am. He feels everyone needs to be supervised and ask for his adviceOddly Belle could not wait to come in tonight, she’s getting soft in her old age, I’ve never known her be in a rush to get in, usually she much prefers to be out. It had gone very chilly today though, the wind was nasty cold
. He misses nothing even if it is quite a way away. Normally he is keen to come in and once he couldn’t see what was going on he marched in.
It's clear and cold and calm out about 30f
It will be a decent day.
My skinny pencil style tree that l leave up
Looks ok from outside.

Husky in hot pursuit of Felix just now. It’s all in good fun as he chases him but they often sit together and Husky washes Felix sometimes 
Oh I wish it could be Christmas every day…..lol
we are early this year! Yaye!

I’m trying to catch up on reading. @Kite_Rider no it sure isn’t you. I would keep a written log of theirs and their dog’s antics and pictures when possible. That way, when you have to call the police, there won’t be any of that “we said, they said” baloney.
I am so thankful to have great neighbors up and down this road.
I’ve been busy overthinking and losing sleep over the shots I had to give Duncan on Saturday for the tick bite inflammation on his chest. I haven’t had to give shots to anyone for 20 years, so I hit up a vet video on YouTube after I gave my vet the bobbing dog head of “oh yes, I can do this if you say I have to, so I don’t have a $60 farm call”
My closest fence neighbor works for Animal Control; she is so swest and kind, I don’t know how she gets thru the Days she has to go out on abuse and neglect calls. Anyway, she possesses a very calm demeanor that DH does not, so she came over to hold Duncan while I gave him this two shots.
Bless that precious horse never budged one iota — just put his head on her chest and kept it there until I gave him both shots.
Which that Excede is thick, so thick it took both of my arthritic hands to push the syringe down
. I was so glad she came over to help because I could not have held onto Duncan and given that Excede shot. The steroid was clear liquid and went quickly.
She was telling me of two open animal cases. One involving the confiscation of 42 (forty-two) dogs, another with 20+ horses that the idiot people let them breed at will. There is so little forage and food, even the foals are skinny because the mares have nothing to give them. The state vet is involved but our even more stupid state laws are preventing confiscation of the herd. Animal Control has to go thru paperwork channels & jump thru hoops and in the meantime the foals may die.
My neighbor offered her own money to buy the foals but the owners said no, because they don’t see any issues. The horses have water of sorts and hay that is full of weeds - what else could they possibly need.

I think it's so great to see everyone putting decs up, they are really jolly! But I hate how Christmas is shoved upon us now everywhere constantly so early. Why on earth did the radio stations need to go 100% Christmas in November? Am I just getting old I really don't begrudge anyone celebrating how they want and when they want but feel like if you don't want to start celebrating in November now you are seen as Scrooge.

I agree
Oh that sounds awful for your neighbour having to witness that kind of situation with animals. Poor mares and foals.I’m trying to catch up on reading. @Kite_Rider no it sure isn’t you.

Well someone is going to get a shock, literally!!
Putting your head under the fence so it leans then you step over, although ha ha clever so and so, it's somehow going to stop!
Farmer insists on those stupid little 3ft polyposts on the side of hill, regardless of the size of your animal.
I have put up a second strand and put the zap on that. If that's not good enough, I will get another battery as this one is two years old and can only manage 5000volts, then I will have to buy more 4ft posts to set up a second fence as that is being respected at the other end. (don't tell her that's not on!)

Some people car crash through life completely oblivious of anyone else.
I hope they don't have children.
That awful with the horses Lollykay.
There is a special place In hell for some people.
I really hope they sort out the red tape crap before the foals die.
They pay the price for it.

Then there is 16.2 Robin. 3 foot posts that he could step over keep him in. Even when they are shutting him in a tiny pen in his field
During the summer I can strip graze and she doesn't go anywhere.Then there is 16.2 Robin. 3 foot posts that he could step over keep him in. Even when they are shutting him in a tiny pen in his field
She starts her shenanigans with the fireworks.
They don’t, the dog is their child, two women, so can’t see any children in the future.
Wwwooooohhhhoooooo. Robin is getting his field back! (And yo back tracking about the hastle that has been caused by the other person)
My fingers ugh went numb
this am.
We are going to have a couple warmer nights.
I hate to break out handwarmer packs for one cold morning.
When it will warm up a bit again.
I can put them in a baggie squish out all the air...that deactivates them to re introduce to air and get more use...
But if it's a couple warm days in between it may not work
