Wednesday at the farm

It was a big day at the farm today. We had all our gate entry ways concreted and the marine boards for the new pool ramps arrived. We make our ramps (same as in our big sports pool) from a fibreglass reinforced polymer which is the same heavy load material used on jettys and steps into the sea water. It’s quite an impressive material, because it will take 450kg in a very small area of just one inch squared. We now just need to put them together and install them in the pool.
Elly the Red Heeler was super excited to be at the farm today. She was very keen to join the pack and has come a long way with her confidence since her first day at the farm a few weeks a go.
Zac surprised us all today. Before I say what happened, for those new followers, Zac the Staffy has had swimming lessons at the farm over Summer so that he can play his favourite game of swimming after the big ball in the dam. Many people ask why he still wears a jacket. He wears one because his body build can make it quite challenging at times and when he quickly turns in the water he sometimes forgets to paddle and keep his bottom up and therefore he sinks. Life jacket for safety. We call it his super cape and he loves that thing. When he knows it’s that time he goes over and noses it telling uncle Luke to put it on. So today, everyone was on the dock, Luke threw the big ball off the dock and into the water and Zac got caught up in the excitement of the pack and jumped off with his mates. Wow, we were speechless! Way to go Zac!
The heated magnesium pool was a hit again this afternoon. Wednesday’s pack is surely our water baby pack! There is so many water lovers! They love jumping after the squeaky Kong toys and of course Luke. It’s pure joy to watch for us, seeing them enjoy it so much.

Beautiful old Charlie's face is a stark reminder, that our beloved dogs' life span is so very short. Unconditional love - our wonderful companions.

[@lindakrusyna7275]

As much as I enjoy watching your "misfits rescued pack", I do miss seeing the old daycare pack kiddos. Of course seeing Charlie still brings tears to my eyes. Such fun times.💞

[@leeS04]

Seeing Charlie reminds me how much I miss my girl. Bless them all

[@racheleastwood5588]

Charlie was a very precious pooch. Bless Bandit for giving him kisses.

[@cheryl1]

Love these old videos. Charlie!!! Some old favorites from day care!! Love that they are available to watch again and again!!

[@tinasloan7322]

I’ve had a couple pets that are not here anymore. Loved every one of them like family. Some closer then family. They are never far from our hearts. But, you know what? Now they always seem to show up and remind us of them when we need them most. Charlie was definitely one of those. He came back on your news feed for a reason.

[@jayneshort2732]

Oh my goodness thee excitement when Zac had his Cape and zoomed in after the ball is amazing. So much to say but I will watch it again xxxxx

Old Charlie is sweetie. Still participating, even though it’s from WAYYYY back of the pack👍😀

[@reneethompson1564]

I had never seen this video before. Love it. Charlie was truly one in a million. He lives forever in our hearts 💕. Watching Uncle Luke with the drone makes me wonder how Navea (not sure how to spell her name) would do. She is so fast and athletic, I bet she would be all over it. Absolutely loved Ben’s video on Freddo. Thanks for all the fun. ✨✨

[@bettyburton9500]

I am having major spinal surgery on Tuesday the 18th in Boston. The only thing getting me through these times are your videos of the Doggie Day Care. From the wonderful pups to the fun music and of course Luke and Sam. THANK YOU. It is one of the few things that lift our spirits in the pandemic. If we could travel, I would save up and come to see Bandit Zara, Paris, Zac and his super cape and the others. I follow them everyday. It is so nice to know Luke's back story. I is clear how much he loves the pups and we love him. I follow Paris because she reminds me of my lab, Spot. Again thank you.

[@sailboatrn7372]

Hope you are doing well🐶❤️

Hey... This video just popped up. And though I have already watched it, I watched it again. And it just made me reflect on how much I miss the daycare days. But at the same time I love seeing the videos you are doing now and how much you are doing to help so many dogs in need of help just to keep them from being euthanized. I really love and appreciate all that you do and all that you stand for as you try to help each and every dog you possibly can and give them the best life and future that they all deserve. Wishing you could have one farm day a week. But totally understand the need to change your focus on the dogs in need of your help. I really do appreciate you and all you do and for all you stand for. And I hope the other dogs that were a part of your daycare program have been able to transition to another program that will be good for them as well. Blessings to you and to all the dogs that you help. May God richly Bless you above and beyond measure of what you could ever think or imagine as you continue to help those in need and giving each dog the best of the best life possible for them. ❤️❣️🐾🐕🐾🐕🥰❣️❣️🎂🧁🥰❣️❣️

I love the now and past videos too .. well said ❤
