No casualties, no casualties so I'm doing the happy dance! Yeh, the WHOLE family, grandkiddos included, went on a lengthy vacation to Florida. Even though I left my dogs and farm critters in trusted hands, I still had that nauseous feeling that something disasterous would happen. Came back to everyone all in one piece, no bloodshed, and the caretakers still have their limbs! Of course, they had no actual physical contact with the dogs at all as I have a feeding/watering system that works well.
And GREAT thing was that I had a set of twin lambs born while away.
Happy dance!!

Re: Happy dance!
I'll take some photos of the babies and post. Does anyone know that lambs really dont say 'baaaa", they say "maaaa". Actually even the adults say "maaaaa." Or at least mine do. Just some trivia.

- Tell us about yourself: I am in New York State. Got my first DS about 14 years ago (more or less as a rescue- lost her in Nov.). After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger. Shorthaired Pointer/ Yorkie and my current Jack Russell) I now have another DS, 4mo female, no name yet, tho I have a few in mind.
Also have a horse-old quarter horse mare-32.

New Herding Stock???? Glad your crew did well while you were away and the lambing was without incident.
