Post pics of your farm dog(s)! (And tell a little about him/her/them)

Mine is a female, 6 yr old, black lab named Lucy Wild Flower.

She's such a stinker and loves to bother the horses! She even thinks she's a horse and I'll catch her eating grass with them too! Another one of her hobbies is to stand there barking on the side of the road or chasing our barn cats around XD

We have 4 dogs! My husband's 3yr old basset hound "Hoss". My daughter's 3yr old rescued doberman "Toby". My sweet baby, my 5yr old springer spaniel "Roscoe". And my 2yr old rescued boston terrier "Roxie". I work in animal control as an animal cruelty investigator and facility director so there are also usually a couple of foster dogs here too. Our current foster is "Tucker" an approx 2yr old blue merle australian shepherd. He was born with issues affecting both hind legs. They are pretty much paralized. Our vet says that he is in no pain, and he gets around fine. He is house trained and loves to ride in the car. He came from a home with about 20dogs, so he loves one on one attention. He is looking for his forever home!

I love Australian Shepherds and that's the breed I want when I'm older! =)

Yall look like you have lots of loving dogs =)
 
This is Roxy! We got her from the shelter when she was a puppy. I need new pics of her, she's really matured and bulked up since I took these over a year ago!

Magic Marker Miniatures has three dogs.

First is a old yellow lab(can't see or hear well) named Slim Shady. I named him when I got him from a shelter. He was two and he will be 13 on Jan 1st.

Second is are 3/4 Great Pyrenese,1/4 Anatolian female. She is 18 months and a mother. Stray Great Pyrenese X got into her inclosure. She has 6 puppies(4 girls, 2 boys) that are almost two weeks old. They are being raised with our sheep and goats. Will be finding four of them homes when they are 8 weeks. They look all Great Pyrenese or Anatolian. Mom(Kenai) guards all the animals.

Third is a 5 month old Pittbull cross called Breeze. We where very careful when we picked her out at the animal shelter. She leaves all the animals alone, except the cats. She loves to run with the miniatures when they start running around the property. When we first got her, she was put in with two pregnant does. After they kidded, she wanted to see the kids. After a double body slam, by both does(at the same time), she decided to stay away.

Once we move to greener pasture next year(we live in AZ), we will get more LGD. We are looking into Colorado and their is more predators.

We had a 3 year old Great Pyrenese, but he had a accident on the trip from MO to AZ. He died. Kodiak was the best.
 
As much as I love horses, I love dogs even more!!! Our "Farm Dogs" (the ones we actually let go around the horses) are below. We do not let our little dogs in with the horses. Even though these big guys are "farm dogs" they are in the house dogs, too

This is Kelsey, our blue merle collie. These are my favorite pictures of her. She weighs about 80 pounds and is now 7 years old. She loves the minis, especially the foals:

AND this is our puppy, Dozer, who is 3/4 Great Pyrenees and 1/4 Lab. He is pictured in his most grown up picture at almost 6mos. He is now 8mos and I am guessing 100 pounds. He is a lot of fun and a great watch dog already, and as you can see, he loves Kelsey:

I also want to pay a small tribute to one of our greatest farm dogs ever, he also was a stray I picked up on the side of our gravel road as a pup and we all loved him dearly. He died a couple of years ago and it just is not the same without him helping work the horses in the round pen I sure do miss him....Rags. This little dog knew he had a job to do and he was bound and determined to do it. He was clipped in the head twice by horses hooves and he would shake it off and dive right back in to help. You couldn't hold him back. Loved that little dog and miss him so much.
