Nyla is loving the mild winter temps and snow. She romps and hops and grins, with her ears flapping. Her raincoat helps keep a good portion of her body dry and free from accumulating snowballs in her hair. Nyla’s endurance sometimes outstrips my time. I only had time the other day for a one mile run with her. Even after racing the quad thru varying depths of snow, she was still asking to run some more!
While Jocelyn and I work on fencing repairs, Nyla hunts. She got to chase a little rabbit for a short distance a couple of days ago. She doesn’t do to well with the old barbed wire and briars. She insists on pushing on through. In the marsh paddock briars, she lost one of her reflective collars and removed her raincoat. I found the coat. (Finding her collar should be easier now that the vegetation is down. I’ll have to wait ’til the snow melts to look for it.) Yesterday, she removed her raincoat in some barbed wire and Jocelyn found it. Good thing the coat is yellow!
Nyla has been staying in the house during mealtime with the horses lately. Jocelyn and I have rearranged the food station and while the horses are getting used to their new stall positions, we feel it’s safer for Nyla to be home. However, she gets to visit with the herd when she’s out helping us with the fencing.
We cont to love this sweet dog with a passion.
