I took these photos of Cap and Bugsy playing on Monday afternoon. They’ve become quite the pair of anything-goes competitors (the only thing we haven’t seen yet is kick-boxing). We’ve had other opportunities in recent weeks to take some photos of them in action, but every time they hear the door open as we step…

This is a little guy you haven't seen much of recently … blind Zach, who arrived almost a year ago. He had come on the same transport and from the same shelter as Darla … and everyone knows by now who's stolen the show ever since. So although he's been overshadowed by the Pumpkin Princess…

We just today rolled out a new website design at rollingdogfarm.org using a WordPress template. This is a “responsive” design that will automatically reformat the website for smartphones, iPads and other devices. It also makes it easy for me to edit the website myself and not have to ask our wonderful website designer, Amy Austin, to…

On Monday a friend of ours, Leslie P., came over to take our photos for the spring/summer print newsletter that will go to press next week. I thought you'd enjoy seeing this sequence of outtakes — these four shots were all in a row, one right after another. (Click on the photos for a larger…

And now for a post from the farming side of the farm. I took the photo this weekend in the goat barn. That's our Alpine dairy doe Twink, letting her two kids use her as a step-ladder to get to the hay feeder. The first thing goat kids learn to climb is their moms, who…

For a bonus Friday post, I thought I'd share this funny music video our veterinary cardiologist, Dr. Don Brown, sent me. It's probably funny only for those of us who have endured this ridiculous, never-ending winter, but even those of you in sunnier climates might enjoy it. This comes from the Winnipeg Free Press, where…

Along with Aurora and Widget, I took Sunny to Peak in Burlington yesterday for an overall evaluation. For one thing, we wanted the surgeon there, Dr. Kurt Schulz, to look at Sunny's deformed front leg and help us decide what, if anything, to do about it. That's Kurt in the photo above with Sunny. …

If the early bird gets the worm, the early geese get … the frozen pond. We had two very confused geese land on the pond on Thursday morning, only to discover it was still mostly ice. They kept walking around it, not sure what to do. I could imagine the one goose saying to the…

I didn't take any photos yesterday when I was at Peak in Burlington, so I thought I'd just go ahead and post this cute shot I took the other morning of Wilbur and Aurora in the living room. In a round-up of medical news from yesterday's trip, let's start with the good news: — Darla's…
