Love the pictures, Sara!!
They are great!

Did they stay close to the house before, or wander a bit further afield?

Gorgeous fence.
I know, that's an odd thing to admire, but having so many dogs, my whole world is surrounded by chain link!
The first picture has the cat looking like it is part of the gate. Wonderful shot.

Just a quick pic of Tootsie and the chickens! :D



She loves it because they are bigger than she is and they run from her! :D

I finally got her to look at the camera!

Not sure how big Tootsie is but I get small CLOTH harnesses from simplyshe.com. I mean, if that is of interest! I just started using harnesses instead of collars a couple years ago, mainly because one of my rescues came with a beautiful, comfortable one made of cloth instead of leather.

Well! I should have waited for ALL the pictures to load! She's tiny. Love the shot of her and the chickens.

Emy's pups have just turned 4 weeks and I moved them from my bedroom
to the computer/tv room this afternoon. Obviously, they were terribly upset.



They're probably as big as Tootsie!

Peri's Esther has just turned 1 week and is suddenly doing really well, thank goodness.

Love the pictures, Sara!!
They are great!

Did they stay close to the house before, or wander a bit further afield?

They used to go literally in the fields, although not all that far.  Used to catch lots of mice, with the occasional squirrel, rat, mole, baby rabbit and birds :(. But they seem perfectly content in the garden now - luckily.
