Sneaky Way To Take Care of Big Joe!

[@samanthadillard2853]

Big Joe running after you like he's a big puppy lol

[@MuirWoods111]

Whoever thought a guy, (Dusty), could walk up to a huge herd of Bison and say, “shoo, shoo, get back” and the Bison would do what he said….. well, Dusty can….. you will be amazed. I am amazed every time! You go, Dusty! Blessings!

[@karencopelen6967]

You have spoiled that whole herd. They know exactly what you got. Just love watching you taking such excellent care of them.

[@illusionisms]

Watching Big Joe is like a little kid that drives the daddy crazy until he gets what he wants. Its so adorable to watch you interact with him! Seriously your bisons are wonderful to watch you with them all. Especially when Big Joe gets to jumping while he chases you ! Thank you for the smiles. 🫢😉🫶🏻

[@joycemaurer3588]

Awww Big Joe just a big ol teddy bear!

[@cheryl739]

I love Jackie! Sometimes I think resident dogs don't get enough credit. She is a sweet lonesome ranch dog. I can see why she is happy to play and especially with Maia. 🐕💕👍

[@willgaukler8979]

...bet she rolls in the Bison poop to disguise her Dog smell

[@jeanwader1652]

I have been have loved watching the way you take such great care of your bison. Im really amazed how far you have come from the beginning. So live watching your show!

Thank you for your caring for the boson that we are in awe for the future of the bison. I love you and your beautiful family and your lives.

Thank you for all you do for us to be able to watch them making sure they are all taken care of. I know I have written you so much but im so thrilled to be part of your fans! ❤❤❤❤

Big Joe was being quite the turd that day. His personality is comical. He thinks he’s some sort of lap dog except his head alone is about all would fit on a lap. He is my favorite bison. Never a dull moment with him. And of course Princess Eleanor is another favorite. All the bison were loving the weather after all the mud. I’m so thrilled to see you all get that much needed rain and that it is getting absorbed too. I wish we could say the same here in Western/NW Iowa. We are still in full drought in most of the state. One major snowstorm with 13-15 inches of snow and it all melted the beginning of this month. Not looking great. However, I know God will provide. Hello to Marisa and Brooks!

[@sdlady1]

Seeing the bison running next to you, can you imagine running with thousands and thousands of bison back in the day. What a sight to see and even felt. You're a very lucky man to raise such awesome animals.

[@katherinefisher6847]

It's so fun to see the bison waiting at your vehicle's door for the treats!

[@KathleenAhart]

Always enjoy these videos. That new addition to the truck will save your back and creates a higher level of safety for you. Big Joe just being Big Joe. The new puppy is adorable.

[@paulinepardue678]

Dusty your just the hardest worker ive ever seen.God bless you and your family

[@americanbornwalkaway9110]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 BIG Plains Puppy Dogs with Horns!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@wendynilsen4179]

I'm loving watching these bison and your interacting with them. Big Joe putting his head in your vehicle to find more food made me laugh, what a massive head. He's like a big puppy following you around. 😂😂❤❤

[@eileencarroll6418]

'Love the personalities of those red dogs getting right up front for those cubes!!! ❤️

[@jenniferclark9170]

Your collective burn group is amazing. Love seeing farmers helping farmers.

[@jamesrobinson4680]

I love how Big Joe is taming down...he loves you!

[@susandallessandro5076]

I just love Big Joe's personality. He loves the cubes for sure. I love how you talk to him. He loves you so much that he left you slobber!

[@dmorgan28]

Ole Big Joe just keeps coming back for more 😂. Thanks Dusty for taking me along with you! Cool video 👍❤️

[@elainethomas9532]

[@stephaniedougherty8029]

[@ShainCaldwell]

LOVE you driving around in the herd! 🦬🦬🦬

[@sallysullivan4463]

Good Neighbors are a blessing to everybody !❤ Thanks for the 'ride-along ! Blessings to you and the crew ...

[@corrinaallman4338]

I remember when you first got Big Joe. He was standoffish and very hard to work. Now he actually comes to you for his beloved cubes and the occasional pat. The trust he has in you is awesome.

[@JaniceLarsen-r2p]

You take such good care of your animals I think your animals love you as much as you love them

[@denisehibbs9576]

Good video Dusty ! It's amazing how gentle your bison are. They chase you like kids chasing the ice cream man ! Oh, showing my age. Lol. They look great! It's funny to think that there is actually a group of men, that start fires on pastures. Who knew ? Thanks for sharing ! Have a great day!

[@suecastillo4056]

How can you not love these guys!! They have such personalities ♥️🙋‍♀️‼️☮️🤣

[@johannaraisch4051]

So fun to watch the herd running with you for treats. Just amazing ❤

[@lesleyflynn7673]

Big Joe showing how much he loves you.

[@rhondastory6825]

Dusty big Joe is a spoiled bison. He loves his treats.😊

[@janicedoyle9227]

Dusty you are awesome. Caring for the environment, as well as Bison ranching. Thank you! And thank you for sharing.

[@carolynbartelmann7543]

Dusty when you were feeding cubes, the bison were running next to the beep beep like you are one of their kind. However the early shot showed a t-post was sticking out of the back coming really close to these precious animals. One bumps into another that bumps into that t-post and their side is opened like a knife. I know you love those critters and it wasn't on purpose so I thought I would tell you so you can be aware. Keep ranching bison. I appreciate it so much!!!

[@margaretmuller2819]

Bijg joes like a big baby he's so cute love him, love all the bison

[@vickiemeeks5399]

Dusty, you and your brother- law are fire bugs🤣🤣. I love watching both of you on what you do. Thank you for sharing. Love you all ❤

[@cherylprince7702]

Christi is so beautiful... And Elenore is so sweet.

[@sandianaya5141]

Love seeing people helping people.

[@coolwatyr]

Hello Dusty and Marisa Big Joe forgets he’s a nearly 2000 lb bison and thinks he’s a big puppy instead. Wanting treats. How is Princess Eleanor? Blessings ❤ ~Linda

[@user-si1vu2yd6m]

Thank You for taking us along.

[@s.patrciabrady]

[@starrcallaway4108]

[@mercedithcompala8148]

Really enjoyed this video, alot of good info on Bison health and burning grass also for success in thier grazing

[@patsyguthrie8520]

You take good care of your animals

[@CrossTimbersBison]

Thank you!

[@sandraoconnor5700]

Hello Elegant Eleanor❤❤❤

[@cherylprince7702]

Congratulations to Belle-star.

[@robsherman8963]

Big Joe is like a puppy dog, following you around the pasture.

[@debbieweems9106]

LOL...I know it's hard to film, but you just have them trained so well & they love their Papa ❤😂

[@tresfingeros]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Big Joe has become a cube junkie 🤦‍♂️ Glad to see y'all respect the ground as it is a provider, you take care of it, it will take care of you.

[@atirblum]

Can you teach us a bit more about the burning, please? What fields are chosen and why, in what way is it beneficial for the water, how long does it take until the field is good for grazing again? Aso. Thank you!

[@CrossTimbersBison]

Yes, we will be doing more burning at the Ponderosa this year. That will be a great time to answer those questions. Thank you for the comments! Dusty

[@V.I.C.]

Hahaha That little baby was like.. idk what I'm doing but I'll just run and follow all the adults!! 😂😂😂 So cute!!

[@lomagibson664]

So fun to watch ❤ God bless

[@pamelanose8061]

Dusty I just wanna say thank you for sharing your beautiful basins with us. I so look forward to these videos of yours. The bisons are just beautiful animals. They make me a little nervous when they get so close to you but I know that you know what you’re doing. Again, thank you so much to you and your family for sharing them with us.

[@lindajohnson2435]

Aww Big Joe's your bestie Dusty love the bison sticks new puppy is adorable

[@vickyallen9734]

Dusty, they just love you.

[@lindahipp8329]

Sounds like a good way to get dewormer to the bison without the stress. Big Joe just had to add a little stress to your day. Looks like y'all had a successful burn. GOD bless y'all.

[@janetball6411]

Love your videos and watching your kids

[@bobbie7355]

Big Joe is the new lap dog 🦬. That would be a cool merch idea. I would say.. Beware bison on board Js.. hugs from Texas 🩷🤠🩷

[@Linda-k4v]

This reminds me a bit of keeping an organic orchard going. Expensive and very, very detailed and time consuming to keep the orchard and Bison healthy. More than anyone who has never done it could possibly know.

[@luna_wolf6929]

Big Joe looks an acts like a big puppy dog. Love big Joe. Can watch him all day

[@cherylprince7702]

They sure do Love you Dusty.

[@carriegrosenick6426]

So fun to watch Big Joe and the bison herd following you around for cubes. ❤🦬❤️🦬

[@earlshaner4441]

Good evening from Syracuse NY everyone thank you for sharing your adventures and your herds

[@karencopelen6967]

There's my favorite Big Joe. If you didn't know he was a big bison. You would think he's nothing but a big puppy.

[@lindahaggard6416]

@karencopelen6967 I'm not so sure Big Joe actually knows he is a bison! That is the most comical boulder on 4 legs I've ever seen!

[@gladys5225]

great job keeping your land beautiful..

[@randycharest4507]

ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO DUSTY 😊

[@CrossTimbersBison]

Thank you!

[@deelynn312]

I just love big joe❤

[@virginiacurrey2019]

Dusty, those that follow you first closer.. as you dump out treats… have they known you longer than the ones in the rear? I know they have a pecking order among themselves, but just wondered if that also was applied at treat time… With these med cubes there will be a lot of pooping in the pasture. Wow! How about the Dunbar group… are they here in another pasture, and get med cubes too. Be safe! Cute pup…

[@larryfisher5796]

I've to tell you I love big Joe and watching them all run 😊😊

[@denault3985]

Not another fire again, you're brother-in-law Daniel had one at his place a couple od days ago. Of course Puppy dog bison Big Joe was having a great time... When it comes to cubes, there is a pecking order.

[@zelphadecker4953]

Big joe is so funny. He loves his cubes.

[@juanitaziegler7016]

Your Bison areloving their treats!!! ❤

[@jbennettkernan1211]

Our daughter and son-in-law have a blue heeler. Since she doesn't have a herd, she herds people. I love Mia.

[@BadHorsie2]

LOL, Jackie was deworming herself!!

[@cherylbovee1296]

We used to put hay in a plastic grocery bag which we took in the house for our guinea pig.everytime she heard a grocery bag cribkle she would start squealing. That was a good memory thanks for reminding me

[@maryjanedowns4040]

I love big Joe he is like a big puppy makes me laugh

[@royrostjr1352]

I didn't think you would miss out on a good burn there Dusty ❤❤

[@CrossTimbersBison]

That's right!

[@katherineallen9060]

You have to give Big Joe a laugh for persistence!!😊😀

[@TexasRed167]

Big boy❤❤

[@kimface5495]

Absolutely love watching you guys do the prescribed burns! So good for the land and grasses...will you go over it with your own mix of seeds to help after to?

[@katepollard-vithanage889]

Doing that prescribed burn was pretty awesome, but also so scary for me to watch as a Californian who has lived through massive wildfires and been evacuated due to them. Too bad our more areas don’t do this when appropriate. Stay safe!!

[@dianapadgett3089]

Prescribed burn is so much fun for “pyros”! 😂😂😂 So fun watching you with the bison hot on your trail looking for more cubes!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@marciaborg77]

Loved the video

[@AmandaDoll-hi4dr]

Hi dusty and big Joe is a nice bison 🦬 good job on theme it look like big Joe is a big dog

[@terribudesa4659]

Dusty & Daniel the fire bugs! 🤣

[@rhondalee7415]

Big Joe cracks me up.

[@donnakeeton4967]

When you stopped and you are setting there and it like pouring water fuel out by your tire.😊

[@elizabethG633]

Dusty, the medication is called Fen Benda zol That is how it is pronounced. Fenbendazole. It is prescribed for animals, tropical fish and humans.

[@marilynjewell9337]

Tuned in late sorry, is that for worms?

[@ladyhawk5245]

Yes.

[@ladyhawk5245]

Look it up online also broad spectrum ivermectin that one's for horses.

[@crystalkarlson5491]

Jackie got a dose too.

[@kkelley3134]

Love seeing the Bison. Love seeing the prescribed burn! Fascinating. Id love a sibling of Bullet! I miss my dappled dachshund! Anywhere in south OK or north Tx I could find one?

[@beckymowery5532]

The Bison sure love their cubes. What beautiful animals. Yall do an awesome job with them.

[@hexabob57]

Big Joe loves you! Just give him some cubes, c'mon..... LOL

[@dd3wc]

LOL! 😂🤣😂 Dusty you are such a pyro! You always seem to get giddy when you’re around🔥! I think it’s your favourite thing to do on a farm. I think you just joined that organization so’s you could burn! 😊 How is it going looking for land? BTW I don’t know whose channel it was but it popped up on my feed, of a woman who has a female Bison as a pet (the size of Eleanor). I gather she is a ranch hand and takes her Bison to the various ranches that she works o. with her. She had her spayed so that she doesn’t have to worry about her getting pregnant. She was actually able to handle her like a dog … halter-leash trained and pets her like a dog … the works. Anyhow, looking forward to the next one! 🙌🙏❤️🇨🇦🦬

[@treasureslayer3049]

I guess Jackie thought she needed wormed as well, hope she didn’t eat too many. Great video I love watching your bison. Thanks for letting me know the honey sticks are back in

[@8782nancy]

WOW that wind is really grabbing hold of the fire 🔥

[@Ramona57-TX]

Thank you and all the and women that work together to bring harmony back to the land.

[@juliederry3719]

Jackie just doing her own thing, not sure about rolling in bison poop lol, and bison are pretty fast and nimble for big animals, it’s amazing how the ground springs into life after it’s been burned, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧

[@crystalkarlson5491]

She ate a few of those cubes too... Hope that dose isn't high!

[@timothyfolts3102]

thats something ! taking your bison for there morning run !!!

[@jansmall72]

Wow Big Joe is amazing to see he is hugh Dusty

[@lrwright8400]

I think it's better to distribute the medicated cubes forage style. If you put it in a feeder you'd have a few bison getting most of it and many not getting enough. I have a question: If you feed the wormer over a longer time, does it cut down on the load of parasites in the dirt? (I'm thinking of hook worms dogs get - appologies, I'll look it up!) Love your posts!

[@jamajordan5556]

Looks like Big Joe was trying to climb in and drive the atv off with the cubes. He wanted them all for himself.LOL. HI Daniel!
