Surprise! A Puppy

J was busy while I was traveling across the country.  

 He got a puppy.  Well, someone brought him a puppy and asked if he wanted it.

 They had advertised the puppies a few weeks ago.  They were  out of a 1/2 Great Pyrenees 1/2 Anatoline mother and father and were born February, 26th.  But when we called, they didn't have any more females left.  Apparently, the breeder was trying to keep one as a house dog, but decided it wasn't working out.  So after a two weeks of being in the house and playing with children, he brought her to J to see if he still wanted her.

 J put her in the barn with the bottle goats to start with but she prefers trying to stay with people.   Bumble and Jewel have accepted her but she hasn't been going off with them yet.

 She seems to like the bottle goats, but  gets a little nippy when playing with them.  The breeder was calling her Bella.  I don't know if we will keep that or not, any other suggestions?

I think she is going to be a bit more work than our others were to start with.  She has followed J to the house a couple of times and he had to go back to the barn and sneak around the other side to lose her.   She came to the house yesterday once and this morning.  She is small enough to crawl through the gate and get in the yard.  

 I grabbed the rattle paddle (cattle sorting tool) and took off after her.  The rattling was enough to make her run back out, no paddling necessary.  I hope she works out but it won't surprise me if she ends up just being a farm dog and not a goat dog.

 A few more goats have kidded since we turned them out.

Kid count 104ish?
