[@natalieb7303]

Kevin, good video 💖

[@megmills4798]

Glad you found dogs,,,no you did the Cora chicken thing correct😊

[@stevedunn7349]

Your a great person Kevin i wish the world has more like you. And you did right with kora . It wouldn't take much more training and she could be around birds. Cause she didn't want to kill it.

[@alysiachristensen5475]

Good episode! Glad the dogs were ok!

[@sherryanimallover7506]

That turkey is so beautiful! ❤️🇺🇸🕊🙏🕊🇺🇸❤️

[@raewynnatta2050]

[@leonandvirginiaclark9506]

Put some water at the fort for the dogs 😊

[@izzy1949]

That chicken high tailed it out of the pasture as soon as you told Cora no and she let it go…it’s good that they obey you like that Kevin….you did it perfectly with your tone of voice and she obeyed …you must have been very concerned wen you Cldnt find the dogs thank heavens they wer just in the shade…

[@GeraldCraig-n2q]

Perfect never give treats when they do something wrong

[@GeraldCraig-n2q]

Thank you

[@ReneeJuarez-gz5xb]

I'm so happy that you found the dogs. And as far as the chicken you know how the dogs are, that's something you can work on. You did a good job.

[@stephanieflansburg3459]

Great job!! You did right!! 😊

[@madgekilbourn5256]

How lucky you all are to live in such a beautiful place! I just love it when you show your beautiful property. Good luck to you and I'll see you in the next video.

[@kimross6279]

U handled it correctly with Kora. So glad those two were ok, sure that u and Rachael's hearts bottomed out. God bless stay safe until the next video 💓 😍

[@dianapadgett3089]

I think you did just fine with Cora. It’s good that you didn’t us praise. You’re right that if you had praised her, I think it would have confused her. I think you did fine with the tone of voice & just calling her name. Good job Kevin! Rachel, you ARE a ROCKSTAR for finding your dogs!!

[@lindastewart8815]

Kevin you did the right thing with your dog over the chicken you and Rachel are truly good home steaders who not only all your animals but show the real farm life no it's not always good but farm life is what it is you have to deal with the good bad and ugly as my Grandmother always said God Bless you and your wonderful family and animals your doing a great job keep it up

[@kathywifall6844]

🥰🥰Kora and Leeske, Mojo and Skeeter, Smeegle.

[@pammager7135]

Don't blame you for getting rid of the mean duck. No reason to keep any bullies on the farm. Also happy the dogs weren't missing! They were so comfortable laying in the shade they weren't going to move. Leesky sure has a mouthful of beautiful white teeth! Bet they could do some damage on a predator? I noticed on the News how hot it is in Oklahoma. It's brutal hot.

[@pumpupjam9648]

One year during a massive heat wave that hit my state, my dog went missing. We didn't have a fence, he was tied up. Somehow he got loose and we finally found him. He was under our bushes on the side of our house. He had dug a hole and was laying in the cool dirt. He was just very hot and he just made himself at home under the bushes. So we moved the dog house, and put it near the bushes. He was happy and barking away! Food and lots of water which we changed for him throughout the day, cause water gets slimy in the water pan and hot (even in the shade). Your dogs are hot and it's going to be over 100 degrees. Of course they will look for a spot with SHADE and dig into the ground because the dirt is cool! That's where the worms are, deep into the ground cause if they come up, they'll roast! You and the Mrs. be careful out there doing your chores! Don't worry about the doggies, they know where to find shade. Just make sure they have clean water! Great job!!!!

[@jillra65]

You did just fine with Cora. She knew she did wrong. Glad they didn't go far when they got out.

[@donnaflanagan6612]

I think you did a good job with Kora, Kevin. She is still a relatively young dog & she still has lots to learn. Take care & cheers🥰

[@dianafredette9469]

We appreciate your honesty very much and show real life stuff that happens. Even if it's sad. Your right, things happen on the farm. Thanks for sharing your life and farm. Stay cool!

[@Tricia_56]

You did the right thing with Cora, keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@deborahpressley7783]

I think your voice tone was just right Cora let go of the chicken she knew you were not pleased with her. All the dogs stopped what there were doing when you said NO, Good job Kevin hope you find the other little duck 😄

[@Claire-277]

She hugs them xx snuggle buddies xx you did just as u should I’m telling her off xx

[@beckyumphrey2626]

BLESSED WITH AWESOME GUARD DOGS. The.perfect positive title.

[@chrisjohanson9284]

I’m so glad you found them ,they found some place cool. Kora will learn by how you handled it. She knew she messed up cause she let it go, Leeski could tell in your voice. Maybe they will learn to leave the birds alone. The farm looks great take care, try to get through the heat ❤️🙏😊✨👍🥶

[@jodiebelton625]

Good that the dogs found a new place to keep cool. A shame that they did not respond to your call.

[@Kathy98363]

I'm so glad you found Liske and Cora safe and sound. God Bless You All. ❤🙏

[@debbeasher-k4764]

Various lily pads are great for water filtration & fish hiding places & beautiful when blooming.

[@debraelliott8371]

The pond is pretty. Glad you found the dogs & they were still on the property. Kora will learn one day. You & Rachel will work with them & it will all work out. You did a good job with Kora. God Bless you Kevin & all 👋✝️🙏❤️💙🥰

[@debcross2335]

The farm wouldn't be the same without Leeske and Cora ❣️❣️♥️♥️😊

[@lilliejimenez1305]

You been it long enough to know, a farm and animals is a learning process. Glad Cora let the little chicken go. Kevin y'all are great parents and y'all love the animals as well. Love y'all.

[@peggyzion8448]

Thanks for keeping it real. As far as dog training, I think what you did was perfect.

[@melindadyke]

You did great. You never want to overdo it because some dogs will just think that they should've killed it instead of letting it go. She didn't know if it was a threat or friend. She did great. Kora and Luski are some of the best dogs livestock guardian dogs that I've seen on all of the homesteading channels that I watch. I love Rachel, and you alot, your more like one of my friends than anyone else on KZbin.

[@satinekenobi4ver855]

You did absolutely fine with correcting Cora the last thing you want is for her to see your chicken or ducks as a exciting new toy to be played with or chewed on .

[@gmacook8095]

never a dull moment,so glad the dogs were safe

[@thereseburton1414]

That's a scary feeling when you can't find your dogs. Glad they were just chillin. Trust your instincts Kevin you handled that like a professional trainer.

[@karengion1390]

I’m glad the pups were just sleeping soundly. I understand your process with training the dogs with the birds.

[@cliffords.8341]

It's never a good feeling when an animal is missing and boy what a relief it is when you find them. You disciplined Kora correctly and she got the message.

[@carolmakin8075]

Good dog miss Cora, at least she let it go when you shouted her, love your videos love all your animals especially the dogs, but love Big Mo that bit more.❤

[@Saints4life]

When you say you got rid of the other male duck, does that mean you’ll be you having duck on your menu in the coming days. lol Glad the pups are safe🩵🩷 Kora girl, keeping your dad on his toes with the chicken. 🤦🏼‍♀️ 🐓

[@lydiarosalieanndamiano7206]

Cora listened to you Kevin - even lesky - skeeter stopped on a dime - awesome that Rachel found your dogs! 😢🙏🇺🇸

[@pattyshannon6475]

You handled Kora great. If you had petted her, she would have thought it was okay. Stay cool. Thanks for video 😊

[@coleenfarquharson3009]

Hello Kevin, Its been a long time...I think u did good by scolding Cora 👍...Glad to see you ...Coleen from 🇯🇲🇯🇲🤩

[@rockinrobin1007]

I was watching an IG video where all the chickens were following the lady because she is the who feeds them. I thought of how the chickens follow Kevin around. Kora’s body language showed she knew Kevin meant business.

[@celiagorleski2716]

"We live in the country and we like it that way!."

[@lisabrown4507]

Teaching moment. That’s how they learn. Bad behavior are teachable moments. Good job.

[@gaylevincent2397]

I'm happy that the dogs are fine and everything on the farm is going well ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lyndajohnson2947]

You did fine Kevin don't be hard on yourself

[@amandabilger2235]

You talked about how dogs could get out and get after a neighbors calves. To be honest if a dog was dumb enough to go after one of our calves our cows would probably kill the dog. Our dogs can herd the cows but if a dog actively goes after a calf to hurt it the herd will gang up on that dog. Years ago a coyote came into our pasture. There were 2 cows with the calves, babysitting, while the rest of the herd wandered off across the pasture grazing. The babysitters sounded the alarm when they spotted the coyote. The herd came running. A handful of cows stayed with the calves to protect them and the rest went after that coyote. Picture about 20 cows chasing one coyote, who has now realized he messed up big time. The only thing that saved him was he managed to get to the fence and dive under it before they caught him.

[@gaylerichards7409]

I think you responded right. She knew what you meant.

[@deniseveiw7992]

Kora did right by when you told her no. And your right by not telling her she's a good girl when releasing the chicken. She knew that she was wrong. Glad the dogs weren't lost.

[@nancyinnevada2785]

💯👍💯👍💯

[@lorrainekennedy1450]

You done right. You have a great relationship with the dogs and all your other animals. Well done and Rachel too

[@LoriL010]

Chickens usually love dried duckweed too. Glad you found the dogs and hope the little duck makes it.

[@jangrahame4891]

You gave her a repremand and a command and she immediately let the chicken go and rolled over to show submission. You acknowledged her obedience; but did not fuss over her and pet her a lot. Let her think on that a spell. Next time you go out you can fuss over her. That way the lesson will stick better. LGD training is a fine balance between submitting to their human pack leader and being independent thinkers who take the initiative to defend their property and their flock. You've got a pretty good balance going with your young dogs.

[@sisking2173]

If your worried about loosing your dogs, maybe attach an air tag to their collar. That way you can always track them when you get worried.

[@gretchenlerch562]

The mom in a family is always the one who finds lost things or animals.

[@debbeasher-k4764]

It would be very stressful to not be able to find them. Y'all love them and they're very important to your farm.

[@lindahipp8329]

Glad Cora and Leeske were found safe. I know that gave you quite a scare. I think you handled the situation with Cora very good. You could tell by her actions she knew she had done wrong. I think you do an awesome job with all your animals. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.

[@deborahcornwell1840]

Have you been out to the lake property lately? It seems like it's been a while. ❤

[@davinawonderling9361]

Kevin, you did well with Kora 😊. She knew you meant business when she let the little chicken go.

[@annettebischoff9715]

I'm glad the dogs weren't missing

[@Linda-td8hj]

You did it just right Kevin 😀❤

[@kaeteeashcraft1040]

Thank you Kevin and Rachel for inviting me to your farm and meeting all your animals. I love it. I think you handled Cora right. She has to know what she is doing right or wrong. And you are teaching her that. Cora and Lesky are good smart dogs.

[@lisabrown4507]

Smart dogs. Found the coolest 5 feet on the farm.

[@karencoley9723]

YOU HANDLED KORA VERY WELL SHE WILL LEARN TO LEAVE THEM ALONE ❤❤😂

[@paulasweeney7358]

You handled it right. Once she'd let the bird go, it was over in her mind. With both dogs being adults, it's going to be hard work "re-wiring" them. Good luck and I hope it works.

[@chrissyd6423]

Don't be embarrassed.. we appreciate you keeping it real

[@beth5050same]

I am in North Texas we are sitting at 110 degrees. We had an official temp of 109 with a 120 heat index yesterday. I’d love to have those 90’s. Those pups are smart, good dogs finding cool places to lay.

[@13juju]

Kavin, you handed Cora the right way, Cora will learn, it takes time, in which you know that!!

[@robingreene3114]

Sad it's so hot for you . Poor baby duck.

[@rowenaroberts813]

I think you did right with Cora, Kevin. Cora did what you told her to do, so she is learning. If she had wanted to kill that chicken, she would’ve done it right away. Glad they weren’t missing though. Your pond looks beautiful with the weed and lily pads. I was looking for the frogs. 😂

[@susanfrey7065]

You did it right in my opinion. She was in the wrong but she obeyed you so she doesn't get a reward. God bless you from Michigan ❤️ 😊

[@joannemckinley2487]

Kevin, I can understand the worry you went through when you couldn't find Leeske and Kora. I am so glad that they were found still on the property and just cooling off under the old fort. I think you did just right with Kora and the chicken. You had a stern tone in your voice; she heard you, realized she did wrong, and released the chicken. I agree, you should not have praised her after that, because she probably would think you were praising her for capturing the chicken and not because she released it. I recognized the duckweed growing on your pond. With the addition of the waterlilies, you have a healthy pond, and less likely to get algae growing on the pond, especially in this heat. Too bad your ducks and geese can't enjoy the duckweed on the pond because of Leesky and Kora (unless you harvest some and bring it to them in the other pasture), but at least some wild ducks enjoyed it for a time.

[@notwantedoutcast]

What kinda dogs are they . They are absolutely gorgeous. Y'all have some beautiful animals . My daughter is special needs and loves watching y'all with the animals . I love mojo . He is gorgeous baby .

[@dogswithjobs2531]

Have you considered installing chicken wire along your fence line where Cora and Leeskee are contained, in order to keep your smaller birds from getting into their pasture?? 🐾🇺🇸🐕‍🦺🦮

[@lynnclark4208]

Leeske plops down and says, "No, I don't want to find Cora. I want attention! " They're funny! 🥰😃

[@jaceeluvs2sew]

Glad the dogs were found and all is well on the farm. Love watching you all.❤❤❤

[@AgentPepsi1]

If my dog would be missing, I would absolutely freak-out.

[@Curlytopwelch]

I'm glad the dogs were there on the property along with Kora releasing the chicken. Good video kevin . 👍

[@sandeepettit696]

So glad everyone is okay❤❤❤

[@kimfrommn7162]

Great Video once again!!!! 🤗🤗💗💗💗

[@patriciawilburn5431]

So glad Rachel found the dogs! I know how you feel, I thought I lost my dog but I'd actually locked him out of the house. He waited on the porch for me 😅

[@ashleewolfenden1081]

You handle the situation perfectly!! When it comes to discipline, it's always situational an you should never escalate more than the situation calls for!! She responded an that is what is important!

[@terrysipes4880]

Hi everybody! Have you thought about putting some kind of trackers on some of your pups? That way you can check on them when ever you want in your phone or computer. Just a thought You all stay safe and strong Nothing but the best to you and yours

[@sandyc6569]

Everyone is safe,happy and healthy! Keep up the good work!! See ya's in the next one!! ❣❤❤❤❤❣

[@diane-bp9dc]

I really enjoy your videos and day to day life with all your animals on the farm

[@dorisharrison9885]

Who let the dogs out,glad you found them 😅😊❤

[@gwynethyaita3774]

Glad the dogs were just cooling off in hadn’t went over the fence. I love to watch your guardian dogs and how good they are to obey. God bless and try to stay cool

[@sharonpolak8410]

Lol. Leesky says I won't scare you like that again ,Dad, Im sorry....lol I can just imagine what hes thinking😂😂❤❤

[@trudiharmon7640]

Hello Kevin and Rachael so glad the dogs were just cooling off. Wouldn’t of done anything different when Cora had the chicken. Thanks for sharing take care God Bless. 🙏💕

[@fogums]

Happy to hear that Cora and Leeski are safe. They are both beautiful dogs. 😘

[@wendycervera1054]

You should train the dogs so they will absolutely come when you call them, it is for their protection, you don't spend much time getting a master repor with them. It's not mean to actually have control of their actions. No training session, look up training and train yourself.

[@beverlycampbell2268]

Don't see the children much. You do have great dogs.

[@deesandage9151]

Did a good job with Cora. She needed to know she did bad.

[@jenniferskiff1637]

You did correct Cora just fine . If she got it you did it correctly. You didnt shut her down, she responded to the correction which was the objective. Mission accomplished. Beautiful technique.

[@carolynmesser7199]

Thanks for the walk and talk Kevin , nice to see what’s going on . 😊

[@Mariekennedy7478]

Glad the dogs are safe😊

[@laurierobertson3504]

You did the right thing with Miss Kora.
