Quick-Go Outside

Puhleassssee-Moon and I went down to the stockyards to visit the calves-and only when I was out walking around did I realize I was parading around in (visualize this) my bright pink plaid pajama pants, a pair of crocs and a bright green john deer thermal shirt that goes down to my knees. It's a wonder we didn't start a stampede.
(There weren't a lot of folks around or I wouldn't have gotten out of the truck. Looking like a crazy lady is a wonderful crime deterrant.).

I really must work on what I wear when I leave the house........I was proud of my Moon-dog today. A calf got pushy with him and he gave it a little chomp on the nose. There was a fence between, I don't want him being frightened by stock at this age, but he gave the calf one chomp and then when it backed off, so did he. (He was on a leash, so he had no choice, but still.......)
Dogs are supposed to herd with their eyes, not their teeth, but this calf kept shoving him with his slobbery nose, so I think a little nip was completely acceptable and I was proud of him for not backing away.
