Coming home

Brought the 31 does home from the mother-in-law farm last week. There is just not enough trees for shade and everyone tries to crowd in the shelter. I  backed the trailer up to the gate and all but 8 jumped on, Dollie the Pyrenees jumped in also, they were ready to go home. Tiny Dancer and Delilah, former bottle brats were smiling. Their new pasture has plenty of shade trees but not as much grazing, but with the rise in temperature the last few days I'm glad they are here. The m-i-l pasture is on a busy road, the sheep and goats are always nervous and excited, when they return to the home pastures they quiet down and relax, not only is it home, it is serene. Dollie had some adjusting to do, she prefers to work by herself instead of with the other dogs, but so far things are working out for her.
