WW: Battle Lost...

Things are beginning to dry out here on the farm.  Which means the grass is drying out and the foxtails are relentless! 

I'm sad to inform, Chloe lost her battle with the foxtails this summer.

Here's what she looks like, normally......

The Chloe Chronicles part VI

I'm amazed, almost daily, by the good temperment of our little Chloe.  Not only because she'll lick my kid's feet 'clean' at any given opportunity {bonus, right?!},



but because she can put up with a rough and tumble 4 year old which she allows to do almost anything to her including, shopping cart rides, wheelbarrel rides, 4-wheeler rides, along with playing 'baby' , dolls and ponies, just to name a few.




She's especially tolerant when give great big 4 year old bear hugs.
















We love our Chloe:)

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!
