hay

Cleaned some hay out where I've been getting it for Leilani. I had to go into the horse pen to dump it and Stripe is making it hard to get in and out. When I was leaving she shot out. I got the ATV to chase her back and she jumped in with the cows. I didn't mind except she broke the fence. I just left her there. Later I took some stuff into the cow pens and she got out again. I just left her out. When Buzzie saw her he took off. I went to find him and he hadn't got very far. He's gotten into a small piece of chicken wire and it was stuck in him. Eventually I had to get pliers to cut it off. Stripe was still bothering him so we went and got Lucy. I've noticed that cattle dogs are usually shy and scared. That's until you flip their charge switch on and they'll go anywhere. That's exactly Lucy. Cows and goats flip her on, so do donkeys. She saw Stripe and took off like a bullet. Donkeys are a little difficult but Lucy understands that. When Stripe turned to go after her she would find cover and then start over. It kept Stripe away until I fed and then she walked in.
