I have a bad case of "Empty Nest" syndrom

[barnbum]

Brandi--I cannot ignore a plea to soothe your heart....

Our dogs--Suzy Q and Shimano

Snickers--my stall inspector and scarer of horses--she hides when she knows they're coming and sninisterly leaps out to scare them!

And--a nest of birds that was in the barn two years ago....and a chicken that stayed with us a few days after riding someone's axel to our home.

We have rabbits, too--but I can't find the photos.

Brandi--are you feeling better, yet?

Karla,

That was a nice looking chicken...too bad she didn't hang around

A few weeks ago I was driving home and as I was driving over what I thought was a leaf, it suddenly moved

I slammed on the breaks, jumped out of the truck and ran over to it. It was a little baby chick that for some reason had been separated from the rest of the group. I knew who owned the chickens so I took it to their house. The guy just said, "just set it down there with the dogs"

:shocked I said, um NO! He said they wouldn't hurt it but I didn't trust him. So he took it but I hope he didn't hurt it

If I didn't have a dog that would kill it, I would have brought the little one home with me

They are so cute!!!!!!

Jill,

Your collie is gorgeous

Thanks for making me feel better everyone
