Martin Dally Explains Finewools and Tippiness
We had some amazing fleeces in Marches Breedbox. One of the questions I had for Martin was “Why are almost all the coated finewool fleeces I buy “tippy.” The always have dark grey ends and are very blunt. I have to pull them apart, which is usually not difficult, but I notice it doesn’t happen [...]

Dogs that changed the World (Border Collie)
I've had three Border Collies, a Malamute/Shepard and two Labs and all I've loved. I have to say that my BC's were so intelligent and eager to please. I had a champion BC with Scottish blood lines named Storm (Blue Merrill) and she brought me so much joy and happiness. If I went swimming, she would…

I was messing around and asked an online psychic this, "Does Scrappy really love me?" This is the answer;
"Without a doubt. What you want to happen is about to happen! Get ready for your dreams to come true!"
I guess this means I'm marrying my dog.

Need my shepherd friends help... doe with blue bag, removed the udder, looks super good, have a problem with maggots. Gave her a shot of dectomax thinking that could help, and we fly spray every single day. I don't want to pack it and cover it because it is healing super well... ideas? We are talking about a wound the size of my entire palm... tissue is all healthy and beautiful.

May 18, 2013 at 7:15 pm Here is your name sake, "Kimberly the Bottle Fed Goat." Remember, she was raised inside with our dogs and thinks Lace is playing with her, not herding her. She cracks me up.

May 18, 2013 at 3:12 pm Lace realized that biting his head was dangerous and now, takes ahold of his shoulder when he tries to hit her. That's a mouthful of mohair she has. Of course, photo by Knottynaomi Spins!

May 17, 2013 at 7:00 pm This is one of the most honest interviews i've read. I wondered why Cesar is no longer filming "Dog Whisperer." I do believe in Cesar's methods based on my experience with my flight animals (and my predatory ones). Further, Cesar airs on the same network my show will be on... please have respect, and even if you don't agree with his methods, I would appreciate you not commenting negatively. I am trying to share with you an honest and very heartfelt interview by a man who's had positive impact on my life. http://www.mensjournal.com/magazine/rescuing-dog-whisperer-cesar-millan-20130207

The world knew Cesar Millan as the 'Dog Whisperer' – the man who understood everything about the canine mind. But when it came to humans, he had a lot to learn.
