Super Duke On Duty !

Duke is a self taught alert service dog ! Several times this Summer , he woke up his momma  with high shrill barking , just  before one of her attacks started ! His alert enables her to seek medical attention .  He has bought the house down once , getting neighbors in response , as momma passed out ! Best my dogs do is bark at the cat !

The Bard Wrote " To Be Or Not To Be " !

I ponder " To breed or not to breed ? " Used to battling with Mother Nature but now have to battle with the virus too ! With so many out of work in an unsettled world . . . should we rethink breeding ?  Poor Jane , looking forward to her first litter , may be put on hold . If Mother Nature gives the green light to breed in October ( litter would be ready to leave mid-February ) , will there be eager homes ?
George , our 9 year old Grand Champion , would be Jane's best suitor . Time is counting on his Cardigan Romance . Do I tell Glenville's Romeo & Juliet " It was not in the stars " ?

Be Careful What You Wish & Plant !

See that Jarrahdale squash reaching the grill & yellow flowers climbing the Mock Orange Bush ?
Well I planted it in 3 hills 20 feet away !
