Evening Chores

The girls love helping with the feeding chores.

Sister herds Nocona along into his trailer directing him to where the food is. Poor horse knows where to find his dinner. But Sis feels she is not doing her job if she doesn't herd him or the chickens. Then she needs to supervise over filling the chickens water tub, catching any stray squirts of water. There are times both she and Lil Bub come in soaking wet.




Occassionally our neighbors dog, Weiner, comes over to lend a hand... er... paw with the chores. I usually crack open an egg or two for him. He seems painfully thin and underfed. None of my business, but I joyfully give him eggs. Stops over for some hugs and a game of get the stick and heads back home.


Caitlin doesn't like Weiner at all. If she sees him outside, she sticks her nose in the air and goes back in the house. She doesn't like being treated like a fluffy little white and black ball to be mauled and rolled all over. Such a snotty little girl.

Welcome to our new blog!

Welcome!
This blog will be a photo/info blog about Princess Renee (Sister), a female Border Collie and Caitlin Elizabeth (Doodle) a female Shih Tzu.
Caitlin is terrified of the camera, so she likely won't be featured regularly.
Sister, on the other hand is so outgoing that we have photos galore of her (if mom can find them that is).
Sister is approx. 8 years old and is totally obsessed with water. And Nocona, the horse. She learned quickly to find Bubba (human brother who always tried to hide from Mom). "Sis, go find the baby!" and off she'd go. Baby is now 13 but will always be her baby brother.
Caitlin is a 6 year old Shih Tzu and is a prissy spoiled rotten brat. Shih Tzu are called lion dogs. Very cat-like personalities. "You can call me all you want, but I will come when I feel like it" attitude.
She likes to "think about" helping with the morning chores. She wants to go with until she sees that we're headed to the horse corral. "Oh, I'll just wait for you here in this little sunny spot, mom".
