Regenerating an Old Homestead, Building a Cedar Rail Fence | These Dogs are Driving me Crazy!

[@SeatoSky1111]

I'm cracking up about the dogs. Especially, when you start laughing too. You are a patient soul, those pups love you! Thanks for sharing so much beauty and info with us.

[@ccccarriemchardy9216]

Cali is having a blast with her friends. Best dog life ever!.

[@MyLevelheaded]

dogs huffing sneezing and snorting is dog laughter they are very happy! You are the new alpha playmate

[@Gardendreamsforme]

I love those wonderful old style fences! They’re just picture perfect

[@dannypalmer8990]

I watched your last two cabin builds enjoyed them very much looking forward to this series as much

[@sherryfillmore9572]

Love the playful dogs, training encouragement and laughter!😂 Retrievers are the best❤

[@susanhamilton1822]

Those dogs just don't take your talk seriously. LOL Great video and had a good laugh.

[@CorkyMak]

lol Toby is young and hardheaded I love it

[@stephenabril7084]

Nice to see Callie getting along with other dogs. The three of them are funny

[@Esoj.]

Gonna have to rewatch this one I couldn't stop laughing at the dogs and their exaggerated toy squeaking 😂. I've heard that "goat proof" is based more on the goat's determination than the type of fencing used. Those things can teleport at will

[@MSjackiesaunders]

Cali looks like she is really enjoying being with her buddies!

[@PopEyed]

Who let the dawgs out? Who? Who?! Loved your laughter, Shawn! Your sister's homestead is ultimately a labor of love which will provide. Excellent.

[@dawnwatson4158]

great video! Loved the dogs.

[@stevenkukene9970]

The joy of our dogs!

[@pirkkojohnes8675]

Great to see an old homestead being renovated! That will be many years work, but with all the help you have there, let us see what happens!

[@NITA-s4r]

HI!! NEVER A DULL MOMENT WITH THOSE ENERGETIC DOGS AROUND. ALWAYS A REASON TO LAUGH AND SEE THEM PLAY AND HAVE SUCH A GREAT TIME. CALLI IS SURE HAPPY, WITH OTHER FRIENDS TO BE WITH. SURE WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOUR SISTERS FACES WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE IF THERE IS A RESEMBLANCE AND WHAT YOUR PARENTS LOOK LIKE. FUN VIDEO AND TO SEE THE POND AND FLOWERS ETC IS NICE. HOPE EMILY IS DOING BETTER, SEND HER LOVE FROM ME PLEASE. THANKS AND STAY SAFE 🙏 ❤❤

[@timepasses3380]

Awesome dogs, fun to watch. Good to see Cali getting on well with them.

[@annemariewharton2797]

Loving the new Homestead videos. You’ll never stop working but so great to see you enjoying relaxed moments and the dogs are full of fun. Best vlog ever!

[@dedwin8930]

All the dogs love You!!!!!

[@tomheckroth5507]

Love this new channel. I do hope you will engage us with more construction as well as the farming and ranching techniques. Good stuff and cool choice to split time between the channels.

[@brianpesci]

You definitely have your hands full with the dogs!

[@walkingstickwoman]

I enjoyed the dogs. Thy are just fine.

[@Offgridlee444]

Very cool fence! The dogs are keeping you busy. Thanks for sharing.

[@gregmason2208]

I think the dogs want to on you tube full time. So funny. Beautiful animals.

[@jntd4160]

You all have a lot of work ahead....I'm 54 but if you adopt me as another sister, my husband, three adult children and I can come help out!😁👍Don't I wish! 🤣 I'm excited to be able to watch all of this come together from the beginning. Thank you for all that you do and for sharing so much with all of us!🙏Saline, Michigan🤟💞

[@c.rogers____]

L, o, l, the dogs are so funny.Gotta love them😂❤❤❤

[@mdaly23md]

What a refreshing and entertaining divergence from your usual content. What a beautiful location! I know the dogs were driving you crazy and it was a bit chaotic for you to let us know what you are up to but it was crazy fun for us. Thank you for that! I have been wanting a dog and watching this crazy happy bunch just makes me want a whole pack!

[@janetwithers7427]

Such a gorgeous piece of land. Love the frisky dogs. Ha. ❇️💞❇️

[@marygordon3032]

Thanks for the updates Shawn and love the doggies! 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯

[@sandrasherritt9708]

No body cares about all those boring details Shawn, we all just want to play with the Dawgs! What cute dogs . They are all madly in love with you!

[@susanableton8647]

Its lovely to see Cali playing with other 4-legged friends. Good for her and gives her dad a break from all that throwing of toys for retrieval.🤣

[@ThatKraZeeKanuck]

I love everything about this video! Informative (homestead info) and entertaining (dogs loving life)

[@joanntucker2742]

The dogs are happy to see you 👍

[@vic8ball]

May God bless you and your family and prosper you!!

[@05bulupointPitt]

Love the dogs, Cali is loving the extra attention right.

[@williamsion3000]

Happy Dogs come from Happy Families!!!

[@MichaelCaraway-e1k]

As a dog and cat owner I agree whole heartedly they are a full time job. Of course the cat is the alpha.

[@craigfox6870]

Those dogs are just living their best life 😂 I hope to have the same thing you do in a few years with a family working together to be self sufficient.

[@douggibson9084]

Labs are smart dogs, but nutszo. Good luck with that one Shawn. Been there done that, but mine was black.

[@OurSelfReliance]

I’ve had 4 labs and all of them required a lot of training and attention to burn up that energy

[@douggibson9084]

@@OurSelfReliance I had a field trail dog from Kingston. He won't stop retrieving till he started dragging he's paws.

[@genevievebakkensen86]

It’s understandable that the pups are excited about you especially since their mom is gone for a while on vacation. Their time it seems like forever since The’ve seen us for us it’s just a few minutes. Love the interaction and enthusiasm they exhibit 😂

[@scottsheck]

I’m looking foward to you renovating their wood structure with them helping you. And therefore seeing the progress move much faster with more help

[@jerryfischer3988]

With typical Shaun patient and humor 😅 you just keep explaining the plan while the dogs have other plans for you 😂😂

[@maggiesue4825]

What can I say? The dogs love you!

[@ruprechtkroenen2665]

Let the dogs do the show 🐕🤣👍

[@kingrafa3938]

Thanks for the video Shawn!

[@lindapetersen1800]

SHAWN & OUR CALI !!! I think some of the Men Folk should help you on out with the fencing !!! It is just what I am thinking of !!! It would help you & Misses to have time to take care of what You have at your place !!! It is just a IDEA for them it is her place !!! It is hard for a Lady or Man to do it all !!! I had to do to much as I grew up in the 20's then 30's !!! Now that I am retired I am feeling it BAD !!! Just to let you know !!! Glad I did the traveling & log cabins when I did !!!

[@JAMESMT-mm6zl]

I feel your pain...as I am typing this I have two puppies in my lap trying to help. They do spell better than I do. As always, enjoy your videos and your thought process on how to use your land to best benefit it and you.

[@ronpeted]

Nice place.

[@suemcknight9051]

I love how the dog who looks part Shepherd is so “tuned in” to you. And, is paying attention to your every move & so wanting your attention ❤️‍🔥

[@4wheelliving132]

Bet those dogs sleep good at night. Living a dog's dream life

[@Anderbender]

Hahahaha! Love the dogs! ❤❤

[@sergiolewes]

Wow, great content

[@HamsterLife_EnglishLearning]

Super awesome to watch as always!!

[@scottshultz8443]

The ongoing battle of the sexes, between practicality and aesthetics. Hopefully, a compromise will be found. Im excited to see the farm's evolution.

[@lindadority1056]

This journey will be so interesting

The dogs would drive me mad I need the peace of the cabin !

[@donaldhofman5257]

Happy puppies 😂

[@robinshay9180]

Sean, I can hardly hear you talking! That just fine with me because, the dogs are always the greatest entertainment we dog lovers need! Lol! Of course, I’ll watch your video again and again to see what I missed!

[@CorkyMak]

I absolutely love your content Shawn! I even started my mother and I in AG1 it’s amazing!

[@stevegrifftx]

Very interesting and informative content. Thanks !

[@c.rogers____]

I'm laughing so hard mister Shawn, at

[@c.rogers____]

Laughing so hard at the dogs.It's difficult to hear.A lot of what you were saying, but it's OK because it made me laugh.I'm sure you guys will do a great job😂

[@daboja]

Such a beautiful way of living.. in nature and so close with your family supporting each other. Keeping everything running and maintaining its no doubt hard as it requires so much work and dedication. But what’s the alternative - live like majority of us in the overcrowded polluted cities, working whole day in the enclosure offices and constantly chaising our tails.. paying $12 (Australian) for loaf of bread which is likely cancerous only because I don’t have time to bake my own since I work whole day to pay for things. This is also hard. Choose your hard. I admire your work. Good luck with everything. Sending greetings from Australia

[@stlrsmike]

The pups always steal the show. lol

[@kaboom-zf2bl]

I do suggest planting winter wheat on about half of the pastures ... a basic broadcast spreader is fine ... then you can harvest it in spring to augment the animal feed an use the straw to plow back in for nutrients (cut it high about 1ft ... the rest can be bailed for feed ... the rest should be grasses ... 6 to 10 different varieties again broadcast seeding is perfect for this ... include clover for it's rabbit and nitrogen bonus

[@nestorabaya7908]

Its like a ranch from the old west. Like the Partridge Family 🙂

[@c.rogers____]

The split rail fence looks a lot of like fences in historical Gettysburg, PA.

[@remystraub6990]

merci JAMES

[@paulfrizzell31]

👍great video

[@Mary-yu3sn]

sun hemp great for feed and great for soil and cheaper seeds

[@elizabethjoypodesta3827]

Ha cali has friends 🧡

[@DorisGronewold]

You will need a tight fence for Dairy Goats. They seem to find every Crack available and squeeze through. I have raised them for years.

[@HH-li5xl]

😂oh boy , the dogs love you lol. Just like little kids lol. Your sisters farm is going to be amazing. I was raised with goats and 100% they get out of most fencing and will eat all the tress . Electric is the best way to go.

[@dedwin8930]

I bet you get back to the cabin you will sigh a big relieve

[@kaboom-zf2bl]

a better end rail for that fence ... use abut 3 foot lengths of rails and make a box fitting the fence proper into each row as needed ... then you can post and gate from the box end to box end on the other side ... as for goats and cows.... 2 wire fence lines ... one about knee high and one about belly button high ... then the smaller goats are less likely too get by ... and dont forget to add a scratching post ... an axle mounted on a rim and set in concrete with a wire sweeper brush slide over the axle .... then cows and goats and dogs will get their itches looked after ... yes a second one on a horizontal on the side one or set apart from it for their backs

[@nestorabaya7908]

The dogs want to play with you 😅🤣😂

[@Lumsden-g7o]

Good Luck with all the dogs ! 😢 Mike.

[@faithmcmow5750]

Shawn: you have to learn to toss those toys further away (gives you a couple of minutes to get something else done). Look at that big beaver - how did you train it to go get those toys? 😂❤❤😅

[@MihaiER1]

This time the dogs decided to make a video and were nice enough to let you join them... 🤣

[@texastx8247]

The rail fence is really pretty but having had goats I agree with you about the goats,, I understand the visual appeal of it. Someone is going to be rounding up goats and getting stuck goat heads out from between those rails, a hysterical goat with horns is no fun to wrestle its head free from a wire fence because even with non climb goat wire fence the crazy things can manage it….but worse case you can cut a wire fence to free it if you have to keeping it and you unharmed, then repair that spot easily enough.,,,,that rail fence your probably not going to want to be cutting to free a goat 🙂

[@melissahoffman4687]

The dogs are fine Shawn. :) Did you want to film projects you are doing for your sister? Only if your sister being comfortable with it. If not, I understand.

It's good to have dogs..I live in the appalachians south west. Dogs let me know when bears are around

[@blakechristoffersen1614]

You need to Dog Whisperer to pay a visit !! hahahaha

[@carolexo7269]

Please sister...put in swales....you can make them beautiful! When your trees die, remember the swales.

[@Redhackle]

Don’t forget they need shade in those paddocks of some sort.

[@stephenreiner1523]

They'll break through that unless you run some power to it and remember the length of hair on the animals determines how many joules you'll need to keep them in.

Civil War style fencing. Love it!

That is a lot of cedar perch required. Must have cost a lot!

Don't forget your My Self Reliance channel Shawn your going to regret it !!

I’m not intentionally neglecting it, I just have important food production systems to work on right now

Love split-rail. Prefer jack leg!

Random rotating works well. Not binary rotation. Dont you need tags to harvest deer? Salt lick?

one of your most entertaining 🤣🤣🤣

[@allenbourassa1579]

Hello Shawn...First of all your videos are terrific,I enjoy them alot no matter what they consist of or where you guys are! Second what breed of dog is Sadie? We rescued ours from Arkansas and Connecticut and they said she was part shepard,but looking at some photos that come up,she looks like a Greece Hare Hound! I really don't know,but your sisters dog looks like mine. Thank you for all your content.

[@NicholasCashmore]

Bat houses to take care of the insects. So many i know ....

[@TheMatrixExodusNow]

Lovely place. I didn't hear much of your plans. The dogs were quite loud and distracting. Not their fault. They just want to play.

[@johnbolton9483]

We have an issue with the hay here being sprayed with Grazon so it kills our veggies. I wonder if in Canada that's a problem?

[@OurSelfReliance]

I’ve heard that it can be a problem but it sounds like a rarity in my area. This grower hasn’t even fertilized or seeded in 21 years, never mind sprayed herbicide. He’s overseeding next spring but not spraying
