Couple days back, some POS stole a clydsdale out of its pasture near here. 

I would DESPERATELY wa nt to get my hands on these low lifes. 

Last year there was a group of scum bags sneaking into equine facility’s at night cutting the tails off horses . 
 

I guess for making fishing flys???  
 

 The stupidity never ends.   
 

We sat up a few nights taking turns on watch in the barn but it never happened to us.

Often thought how great it would be to catch a thief redhanded but am concerned to what my reaction/actions would be. 

Might end up cuffed right beside them in the back seat

Emma was the show stopper today at the farmers market . We’re calling her Hollywood now because of all the attention she got because of her new shoes . I told two ol gals that they were Prosthetics because she lost her feet in a lawn mower accident and they started to cry .  I had to quickly recant and show them that she was ok and had all her feet .

what are the shoes for?

They can also help in the snow for dogs that pick up "snowballs" between their toes. My Collies do and will not go far without sitting down and licking their paws in certain types of snow. My German Shepherds never did and loved breaking trail in deep snow. I'm really not sure what the difference is, the paws look about the same to me.

A few years ago our yorkie got out at midnight, no bells on and my flashlights were good to five feet away but not scouring a pasture, boots on and bound by determination I spent2 hours and found him but I figured my night was predetermined and I was ready for it. 

The next day I made sure he had a harness on til bedtime and it had a bell on that you could here from a ways away, I also bought two coast  high intensity flashlights, so far haven’t needed them.

That fits my dog to a "T". Just need to make mention about the copious amount of attention out in public. Depending on where I go, my dog has reached celebrity status. Same thing at home. The Schwan's guy loves him & the UPS guy wants to get him hired on as a mascot as he matches the uniforms & trucks. He would be great at it. He loves people more than his own kind. On the other hand, some people may not be too happy when 80 lbs of pitbull steps off the truck. Lol!

Figured while I'm here, I'd introduce my "kid" Loki. He is a blue-nosed American pitbull aka a blue-nosed brown noser. He is my first dog & I will admit that this breed never crossed my mind when I thought about getting a dog. After getting him, there's no other option. I'm sure many of you out there know that pitbulls aren't all bad & if you don't know that.... you don't know your dogs. The only ones that are mean are the ones that have been beaten, their spirit broken & trained to fight &/or poorly handled. You treat them right & they are pretty close to being a kid & definitely a great family member. Would like to add that he is a rescue. I rescued him myself from his former d!ckhead owner. That is a loooong story, so I'll leave it at that. Anyway, on to the pics....
