Shear's Looking at You, er, Ewe

I got exactly one sheep sheared today. She's grateful even if she
doesn't know it yet. I hope "Baaaaaaa!" means "Thank you!"

Don't Hate Me Because I'm Beautiful

Glamor shot. I love this early morning light. In the previous pic I
said, "Sheep!" and now he's looking for them.

Did you say sheep?!?!

Also Handsome Ted

Ted is getting to be such a ham. He just turned three and he's just
starting to look like a grown up boy dog.

Handsome Sam I Am

Sam is slowing down growing and filling out some. That includes hair!
I'm hoping how furry he us now means he'll have really neat full coat.
None of my other pups have been this fuzzy as teenagers.

I Am Really Not That Fat

Wow. My apron bagged out and I'm having flashbacks to my pre Weight
Watcher days. Yikes. Anyway, more Ted helping me with my new drenching
method.

Ted in Action

Here's Ted doing his new special duty. Knee protection. While he
pushes the one I am working with a bit forward, I cup the ewe's nose a
bit. This makes her open her mouth slightly, allowing me to pop in the
meds before she has time to react to the syringe in her face. I don't
even have to grab or restrain the sheep in any way. Necessity is the
mother of invention!
