Yesterday afternoon I was blessed with a double rainbow . Even if it was a little faint

Last night was a beautiful,peaceful sunset on the Coosa River.

Last night on the pier I noticed movement in the water. I looked with a spotlight to see this huge gar fish hiding under the edge of the pier. Not just under the pier but also lined up with a pipe that’s under the water. Even fish are smarter than some people think.

Has anyone had a problem with their dogs being more aggressive after they have been neutered? Zak was neutered at 5 years of age. That’s been about a year and a half ago. I thought they were supposed to be calmer but that’s not what happened with him. While walking the together this weekend another stray dog came up and started circling us. Zak went crazy. Growling uncontrollably. Later that afternoon a neighbor and her two boxer dogs came to visit. All went well with no fights. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this aggression problem after their dogs have been neutered. #standardpoodle #aggressivedog

Zak is a very hard sleeper. He has one magic word that will wake him up. “squirrel!”

Gunner love playing in the pond. He can turn anything into a toy, even a stick.

Peaches seemed so confused by me releasing the catfish.

Watching the horses run and play .

While I was petting on Gunner Tri had to come over to make sure he was behaving around me.

Gunner enjoyed his memorial day morning. While munching on grass.

While I was helping my husband with fixing the tractor Peaches decided to jump up with me on the tractor. Zak wasn’t happy about her getting to ride but he didn’t.

I had a flathead catfish on one of my drop lines. I tried to scoop it up with a fishing net. When I got close to it, it leaped onto the pier with me. Almost hitting me in the legs. It weighted 11lbs.

Peaches and Zak git after a big rat in the field. Peaches caught it this time. Then she slings it into the air at the end .

While at the Coosa River I saw movement in the river grass. It was a huge water moccasin!!!!

When I checked the drop line from the pier this morning I got a nice surprise. I caught 3 catfish over 8 pounds a piece and this 20.24 lb carp. I had to call the hubby to come help me lift the big one.🐟🐟🐟🐟

This is Fleabag a 102.4 lb boxer_Bulldog cross. He is my cousin’s dog. He is very bad when she tries to walk him. The other day he jerked her down the steps and fractured her wrist. He needed to go to the vets and go for a bath. She called for my help to control his. To keep him from jerking me down I always ask him to calm down and sit before I invite him to come through a doorway calmly. He can be a good boy if you get him to calm down before you open the door.

Peaches insist on laying down and taking up most of the seat while riding in the cart. So Zak decided to sit on top of her. I guess that’s ok since it’s his 6th birthday today.

Yesterday while fishing I got hung up on this log. While pulling in my line it pulled the log from the mud. It was now in the way of the boat ramp . So I ask Peaches if she could move it. I didn’t want her hurt but she had no problem clearing the log so Lynn could safely launch his boat. It’s wonderful to have a dog with such Malinois drive.

We had a new calf this morning. He couldn’t have been more than a few hours old. It was so cute to watch him learn how to keep her feet under her.

While checking the cows today, Jack and I almost stepped on this king snake. They are not poisonous, but he was doing his best impersonation of a rattlesnake and cobra. Since I have lost a couple of dogs to being bit by poisonous snakes, I took this opportunity to do a little reinforcement training with Zak to leave snakes alone. When the snake struck it, Zack, I don’t know who jumped back faster Zach or I. After a few minutes, I let him go on his way because I saw him no sense in killing him when he was way out in the middle of the pasture. They do have benefits to having them around they eat lots of mice and are also good for killing and eating poisonous snakes.

When I checked on the cows yesterday and watched the 3 day old calf wanted to play but her sister didn’t. Sometimes you can’t get anyone to play no matter how cute you are!!!

Peaches gets super excited when I come home. What does your dog do when you first get home?

We got a closeup view of the ospreys nest today. If you want to see more pictures of them you can see them on my instagram page as misfitsandrescues.
