So what's a big 115 lb livestock guardian dog supposed to do on a rainy "indoor" day? Why, chew on a huge kong, of course! It was pouring rain this morning, which meant leaving the goats and their "bodyguards" in their pens. (Did you know goats hate getting wet?) Aaron is now one year old but in the world of giant breeds, still considered something of a puppy. He has tons of that youthful energy that is always looking for an outlet. He wouldn't mind going out in the worst of weather, goats or no goats, but his senior companion, Gina, would much rather stay in on a miserable day like today … and stay in they do. (You may be able to see Gina way in the back of their den behind Aaron.)
To keep the big lug occupied, I gave him a new kong this morning. He loves chewing on things, including Gina's collars — we are now on collar No. 4. Better a kong than a collar, eh? He recently demolished the last giant kong, so today was a good day to start on a fresh one. Although looking at the photo, the kong sure doesn't look very big in his paws!
Now, back to work:
