Chloe, the Escapee

Yesterday we were at my sister and brother-in-law's house for a combined birthday party for my niece and nephew.  They have a couple of puppies, Buddy {who you may have read about on my 4H Presentation Day post} and Brownie.  Chloe was invited to attend the party as well.

Maybe I should take some notes, next time, when I'm watching my niece train her puppy, because Chloe escapes at any chance she can get.  And she doesn't come when called......even if I have a handful of treats! I think she thinks it's a game......or she just likes to be a stinker.

So the front door was left open and that's all that Chloe needed to dash out.  Both Buddy and Brownie followed her. 

I guess the temptation of all the new smells were too much to handle.  There's sheep poop, chickens and pygmy goats after all!  Totally different than a dairy farm, right?

They headed down towards the dam, first thing.  Brownie and Buddy were the first to be caught.  Chloe was a bit more stubborn.















She had to go get good and dirty before she was caught.


















We did get a chance to go visit the two Pygmy goats that have recently arrived on the ranch.  Here's Georgie.














Paige wants one...........I want one!

  5. We can't even have inside dogs b/c there's so much stuff to get into in our front yard I couldn't even let one out to pee w/o coming back a mess!
    You totally need goats ;}. Kids LOVE 'em and when you have baby calves and baby goats - you live in the cutest place on earth!

  6. If you discover a method of stopping dogs from running off please let me know - my Borter terrier is brilliant at disappearing if we leave the door ajar. Quite fancy a pigy goat myself.
