Cowboy had to show peach how to walk the log. He was heavy enough to hold the log down and still. When peach would try the log would float and roll.

IT’s breeding season!!!! Mr Peacock is hoping for a little romance from the chickens.

The calm before the storm on the Coosa River! N

Cowboy finds a soft place to rest after our hike today.

I swear it looked like Cowboy pushed peaches off the sea wall an purpose!😂😂

Cowboy ( Belgian Malinois meets his cousin’s for the first time.

The little redheaded woodpecker was on the tree, right beside me and I did not see it start with. The cute little thing blending it into that tree so well. I am master and camouflage..

Peaches is always love to swim, but he’s always been afraid to jump off of the pier when it’s over her head. Well today she got one step closer she’s not jumping off the pier, but she is jumping off of a 6 foot seawall. She still not secure about it, but she is definitely my little land shark. She absolutely loves to swim.

Dog Obedience Training shouldn’t stop just because it’s raining. We go on adventures when it’s good weather. When it’s to icky to go outside is the best time to take advantage of actual training.

The majestic Bald Eagles

Fawns are not very patient when it comes to getting their food. I came up with a way to feed six of them at the same time. Are used a drink carton and put a piece of bungee cord across where the bottles will go. To hold me in better. Then I used a long bungee cord around my neck so that I could adjust it depending on the size of the babies. It worked really good until I had about nine or 10 baby fawns at the same time. I miss rehabbing the babies. It was the best non-paying job ever.

This was a few years ago when I was a fawn Rehabber. This is my own invention for feeding 6 fawns at one time. I miss the baby deer.

Beautiful sunset on the Coosa River here in Alabama. Even if it is raining.

The dogs love to go hunting but they like to go exploring in the Alabama woods with me more.

The dogs and I walked to the eagles nest yesterday. They must have eggs that haven’t hatched yet. They gave me a quick flyby and saw it was me and knew their eggs were safe . Then flew on back towards the river.

Zak is my oldest dog at 8 years old. He is very well trained as a service dog for myself. He knows when he is working or when it’s all play training. Sometimes we just have to act like a clown.

I was videoing the gold eagle in the tree. I videoed him. Mrs flew around to the other side to go after some baby ducks. Since he was out of sight, I grabbed my camera when I saw the juvenile bald eagle also trying to catch the little ducklings. The juvenile bald eagle night about three swipes at the ducklings, and I think I can see in one of the pictures that he did have one in his talons. It is so cool to be able to video and take pictures of nature in action. I just wish I had a longer lens to where I could take more close-up pictures of eagles and osprey on the river . #baldeagles #juvenilebaldeale #birdsofprey.

Peaches found a new toy at the river today. She got it out of the water several time just to have it roll back in. This went on fur about 15 minutes before I finally told her to leave it. She has that famous Malinois Drive.

Instead of going out to a restaurant onValentine Day ,we go to the pier for a relaxing afternoon of fishing. It was relaxing until the catfish started biting. Lynn caught 8 catfish and 1 Drum. I had so much fun watching Lynn catch fish .

Peaches is my trouble maker. I have to put her up to be able to work with my other tooth. She comes in immediately, biting both of them in the face. It’s all play, but she insisted on keeping the others away from me. She makes it so hard to train when she is loose. She still my girl, even if she is the most, jealous dog I have ever had. I am hurt everything and everything is hers in her eyes. Thank goodness cowboy is big enough to wrestle with her. Zack is old enough that he says just let her have it.

I decided to play with Cowboy along with some obedience training. Zak wasn’t going to miss out on play time either. I didn’t know he was behind me part of the time.

Cowboy loves his rope swing!!!🐕❤️

Most people think of Whitetail deer as land, owls. Which they are, but they spend more time in the water than people realize. They are excellent swimmers because cold feet have webs between them. I’ve seen them at least four times this year swimming this part of the river. I have seen them several other times browsing on the aquatic plants growing in the age of it.

Saturdays are made for good friends, horses, dogs, trails, fun times, and an energetics. Welcome home. In other words, Saturdays are made for horseback riding. It’s supposed to rain this afternoon but we definitely got in a good ride in this morning. 🤠
