Weds- a great day!

A very hot and windless day today, but we got a lot done.


Sally worked on our office area, which has been completely taken over by the pigs, Jimmy Dean and Bacon Bits. Yesterday, as I went in to use the restroom and was walking past Bacon Bits- she squealed and bit me! How dare I go into OUR office to use OUR restroom, right? Well, from today on, things are a changing...

The sight that greeted us yesterday morning- the pigs had knocked every off of the shelves and gone through it all...
Look at that mess!

But, today, the official Dog Door was put into the wall. The ranch dogs fit, the pigs don't! Now we can keep our door shut and the dogs can use their new door. The office is officially a Pork-Free Zone. We are a bit worried though that we might soon find a Swine Bill of Rights tacked to the door, like something out of Animal Farm, as the Pigs demand their rights...

We had hay delivered today...

The view from the feed room- Charlie and Tequila with Ethel and Fiesta behind.

Tequila and Margarita...

Tony's dog, Jack, came out to the ranch today. Salsa checked him out and Jack did not realize that he was in the danger zone at that moment. Luckily, Salsa held back (for now)...

My old horse Serenity. Renny was my first horse that I got at age 14. Renny is now 30 years old and is retired at Shiloh where she has a barn stall and wanders freely during the day. Here she is by the feed room.

Donkey Otie, he has really filled out and settled into his life at Shiloh.

Daria worked with Journey and Inspirada today. Here she is riding Journey. We are in the process of making videos of all of the adoptable horses, like Journey, to help them find homes.

Sidewinder has settled in and is happy in his new life. We are going to start his adoption evaluation in the next few weeks. He should make someone a very nice pleasure riding horse, he loves people and attention.

Robin worked with Crusoe who is doing very well. He is picking up his feet and standing for grooming and washing. We are working on his adoption video as well.

Chia Pet shows her feelings...

Watch out Micheal Vick!

Tonya cleaned and dressed a minor wound on Gummie Pen member, Vista.
