So you have four now, right? Marvel, Bella, Angel and Rosie? Or is there a 5th I'm forgetting? It sure is nice to have actual grass covered pasture so they stay white vice "dirt" colored. They are beautiful animals.

I've got 4 GP's
I've also got Mikey. He is a GP/Border Collie cross

It's weird. With all the rain we had from the hurricane they were all pretty muddy. But, it's completely dried out now.
I guess I have self cleaning dogs.

Is he a good guard dog? I have seen lot of border collie GP crosses and always wondered if they turn out okay to be guard dogs.

You dogs are beautiful.

I think some people will say that it's a terrible cross.
But, in the case of Mikey, he is the best one I've got. He is by far the one who is most bonded to the goats.

I thought I was still missing one... The original one you started with isn't it? Mikey? He looks like a pyr despite the cross.

Mikey was the first.:thumbsup
Actually his anniversary with us is about now too.
We got him at the NC State Fair which is this weekend.
