Sheep in the Morning

Hard Loss for the Farm
Last week, we lost a great dog: our Great Pyrenees, Captain. Cap was very young to have had so many illnesses and we are still trying to understand what caused his weak immune system.

Oh, and also, they are not supposed to chase balls, be on the … [Read more...]
