Here's another great shot that Kathy K., who adopted the blind Poodle sisters from us a couple of months ago, sent me this weekend. That's Priscilla on the left, Molly, and Franky. Kathy wrote, "They are like the three musketeers, always together playing and following each other. :)" Who said a tug of war can't…

Here are some wonderful photos that Cassie B. in Montana, who adopted blind Bindi (then Nevada) from us back in 2007, just sent me. Bindi already has a big, handsome boyfriend, a Great Dane named Dirk, at Cassie's home, but now she has a girlfriend, too — Stella the Lab puppy. One of the many…

Vicky L. from Connecticut, who adopted blind Lucy from us earlier this year, just sent us this wonderful photo of her daughter Kendall taking Lucy for a bike ride. (Please note pink carrier for Lucy, who also has a pink collar, leash, bed and toys!) Vicky wrote, "Lucy sends great big hugs and kisses. She…

I got this shot the other afternoon of little Dexter at the top of the stairs that lead to our offices on the second floor. We installed this gate to control access, both to keep certain Dachshunds from racing up and down the steps at will (to minimize the risk of Doxie back problems occurring)…

Our first calf of the season was born on Thursday to Sage, a first-time momma cow. Kate was the first person to see her, so she won "naming rights" and decided to call her Annabelle. I took these photos Thursday afternoon, just a few hours after she was born. (For background, see our post from…

I took this photo of Widget as we were leaving Vermont Veterinary Internal Medicine on Monday afternoon. That's the "nest" that Alayne fixes up for her in the front seat of the truck. As if the seat isn't big enough already, Alayne puts a box on the floor, adds a few beds to raise it…

I drove to Burlington, Vermont yesterday — about two hours from here — for vet appointments at our internal medicine specialist and for a run to Costco to stock up on supplies. Blind Widget was in for an abdominal ultrasound screening and echocardiogram, part of her routine check-up now that she's an older girl, and…

I took these photos of Daisy the other day, after I had finished getting shots of the horses when we first put them out on pasture. I was walking into the house with the camera and looked over to see Daisy rolling and rolling, back and forth, enjoying the warm sunshine and green grass. Our…

Like many across the country this week, we're seeing unseasonably (soon to become normal?) warm temperatures here in New Hampshire. One of our sighted horses, Blueberry, has taken to enjoying the pond as a way to cool off. We've had Blueberry for a decade now — I think we introduced her in our very first…

For the sixth year in a row (!), quiltmaker Barbara Edwards from Seeley Lake, Montana, has made another gorgeous quilt to raffle off as a benefit for the animals here. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the farm. Barbara emailed us photos of the 2011 quilt last week. As you can see, this…
