***** Hyzer was adopted! He is going to a wonderful home with children that already adore him 🥰 •••••••Boy oh boy! It’s been busy over here with rescues! 3 in two weeks! Hyzer is a super smart, well mannered, people loving Australian Shepherd. He’s fixed and is potty trained. He doesn’t love male dogs. If you think you’re the perfect match for this cutie please let us know why ☺️ *Poppy is included because she’s cute too and was rescued 2 weeks ago 🥰

Today I got stuck in the mud, literally. Hazel supervised lol. I did get myself out, eventually …. Reminded me of this quote I always loved (prayer + action):
“When our wagon gets stuck in the mud, God is much more likely to assist the man who gets out to push than the man who merely raises his voice in prayer - no matter how eloquent the oration.”

The animals have to eat and so do the farmers! 50 plus acres of hayfield is being cut, raked and bailed!
