Is our farm on fire???

We are back with a new video.
A stressful time with a wild fire and an anxious drive back to the farm not knowing if it had been destroyed.
We upgrade the chickens living arrangements
And we have heartbreaking news.

Yeah he is cute Brendan, that face just says it all and he would make someone a good pet, if he could be caught, he's a quick little thing !

My condolences on Guiness"s passing. I've lost cats & dogs over the years,& I know that pet-shaped empty space in one's life.

The death of a pet dog is devastating. They really become a member of the family. I am sorry for your loss.

[@Quintabarrentaportugal]

Thanks for your kind words. With just myself and Barbara here on our own most of the time it's a big void in our life x x

@@Quintabarrentaportugal I live alone. My dog was my best friend. Then she passed due to an accident. Devastating.

I'm happy to see you back. I'm also sorry to hear about Guinness crossing the Rainbow Bridge. I lost my 21-year-old rat terrier last October. Luckily, my neighbor's cat came to live with me after she passed away last November. Miss Kitty is about 17 years old, and I have to blend her food because she is unable to chew cat food. The fire situation is very bad here in the Pacific Northwest due to arson and dry weather.

[@Quintabarrentaportugal]

Hi Frank. Thanks for your comment and sorry to hear about your terrier, 21 is a terrific age. Glad you've got company again. The fires have been very bad and we feel for the people directly affected. Take care

Take ownership of the dogs, train them not to attack the chickens.

[@Quintabarrentaportugal]

Hiya, as much as we would love the estrela we don't want the others. The local council are aware of the others and a plan might happen to catch them and rehome them...but nothing firm I'm afraid. The smaller dogs are a hunting dog and really difficult to train them out of chasing "prey" I'm afraid.

[@BrendanClark03]

Awwww what lovely wee dogs...shame for the pregnant one 😢 poor wee thing. So nice you feed them..maybe feeding them may stop them hunting the chickens as they won't want food

[@leeboss373]

@@Quintabarrentaportugal The easiest way to train the dogs would be to use a lecy collar
