The Heat is on!

It has been one long painful week at the Sleepy Turtle Ranch. Sadie went from being an adolescent to being a young woman (I didn't even get the chance to show her that stupid movie they make girls watch!) Anyway, since she is only 10 months old and it isn't a good idea to breed her that young, and since Booner is still a stud (literally) and will eventually be the dad, I've had to rotate dogs through the garage to keep them separated. What a circus! The moaning and carrying on has really been wearing on me. I thought that her cycle was done, so I took all the dogs on a walk today, seemed innocent enough until it was painfully aware that I was probably premature. Then it was a rodeo to keep them apart and get one of them back in the garage! Wow, the things you learn on a farm! So far so good, no hook ups and no Whoopsee (or whoopee). I am hoping this is over soon for at least another 6 months.

Oh and here's another shot of the CC in the driveway. I didn't think you wanted to see shots of the dogs in action. It was another gorgeous day in Colorado, even though the wind was blowing like crazy.
