I have a Quarter Horse mare, a Paint Horse gelding, an Arabian mare, and 4 Miniature Horses (2 mares, a yearling gelding, and a 9 week old filly).

I have a 2 1/2 year old, female, tri-color Shetland Sheepdog, "Penny". She is my sidekick and goes to the farm with me everyday. She has a very, very healthy "respect" for the horses, which I am okay with. However, she has decided that the Miniature Horses aren't quite as scary as the "big" horses. She enjoys spending time at the barn while I clean stalls and she watches me feed the horses in their paddocks and pastures from the safety of a knoll by the barn.

I would like to get a couple of Pygmy goats when I re-fence the farm later this year. I had a couple of Pygmy goats in the past and I really enjoyed them and I miss having them.

The opening of our new farm/mobile petting zoo, to open the middle of June. If someone wants to peak at our un-done site for it, it's http://www.barneysbarnyard.com. We built a new barn just for it and think it'll be plenty of work but fun work.

I have a shih tzu child..love of my life x 1,000,000. She is two years old and to say i love her more then life, would be an understatement
default_wub.png
. She is such a girly girl - more human then a dog really. We do not own her...she owns us
default_wub.png
. She loves going for car rides...especially when we go to McDonalds or the corner drive thru in town as she gets dog treats. She will sit up on her butt and beg...it is just the cutest thing.....spoiled....yes that would be her middle name.

Fixing to clip all that pretty golden coat off from her today as she is out with me a lot at the barn and it gets way to hot for her...going to miss my fuzzy bear so much but i must admit, she looks pretty cute all naked too

. Mom clipped her while i was at Nationals last year, came home and sassy was naked..i was so mad and it took all this long for it to grow back in.

We have sixteen minis (a couple mares are due, so that number will hopefully go up a little!).

four dogs-Camille, old grouchy lab mix my hubby had before I met him, Rascal, goober dog-I say his breed is "goober" as he isnt the brightest bulb on the tree, hes actually a terrier mix. And two 5 month old Rattle(rat terrier/beagle) puppies, Nacho and Chip.

thirteen cats-four are indoor, two are outdoor, seven go in and out.

1 Alpine wether goat, Twister. he has run of the farm.

1 bunny.

2 7/8 chickens (1 is missing a wing, so we say he is 7/8ths a chicken LOL)

2 goldfish.

And whatever various crawlies my 9 year old son runs across, such as lizards, frogs, turtles, etc. Right now he has a snapping turtle thats about the size of a quarter he found in our yard (weird as we have no water near the house, Im still trying to figure out if it wandered from the creek about a quarter mile away, or the Mom had a nest near the house....) and he has a couple frogs. saved a lizard from one of the cats yesterday.

Oh and we are building a new house, it isnt totally closed in yet and a bird built a nest in there, the babies left the nest today while we were outside this morning, that was neat to see!

I think that it right now!
