I got a call yesterday from the Road Department. They were working on the bridge in front of the house and Jack parked himself right at the edge of the fence and watched them all day. It made them nervous. They wanted to know if I would lock him in for the rest of the week. I said no, he is doing his job.
:gigBet they were shocked! :lol:

This is from a few weeks back but I forgot about it until now.

The goats got loose and they went up and over the hill. They were out of sight, I had no idea where they were. So I called Jack. About 10 minutes later, here they come down the road. Do you see who is at the front of that line of goats, leading them all home?

Great pics Jodie!
Not only is Jack a great dog but those are great goats!
BEAUTIFUL PICTURE! That really should be picture of the week right there! PLEASE submit that one!

My brats (goats) do not ever listen to their LGD's UNLESS there is a real threat... then again those are the dairy goats that all think they rule the world.
The kiko's will always move with the dogs. They love the dogs and are strongly bonded. Wish my dairy girls were a little more like the kikos... they think the dogs are the built in babysitters. :rolleyes:

Notice those are KIKO goats. :cool:

They decided to go out for a walk again tonight, in the pouring rain. Snows is under the hay rack in the barn, she is terrified of thunder. Jack went out to round them up and bring them home. He had to get some out of the creek bed. He is covered in mud right now. At one point he cam up to me. I scratched his head and told him to keep them out of the garden. He looked up at me and took off, herding them back to the front of the house, away from the garden. I swear he just "knows" what to do.
