Bring um home Kay

Got this band of goats moved to the pond pasture and the horses back to the sheep bottom pasture. There are lots of trees and weeds that the horses don't eat and the goats relish. Kay is as happy as the goats are about moving to fresh pasture. She spotted a chipmunk in a brush pile and swallowed it. While the dogs were away all the wildlife has been multiplying, Kay will get them back in order. Kay and Wolf are a brother and sister team that guard this group, they have been working for me about 11 years, they have been excellent guards and love their goats.  Sad to say they are getting old and Wolf is not able to put weight on his back leg. I was going to leave him in the bottoms with another group of goats but he managed to make the move with his band. Both of these dogs would give their life for these goats. I have been fortunate to have some really good guard dogs over the years allowing me to sleep at night knowing the flock is safe.
