Hera's Story

[Margali]

And I'm a little jealous. I was doing pasture walk with husband. Hera came up and requested belly rubs from him!

Hera has turned out to be a GEM of a dog for you... SO GLAD, you were able to give her a home and a job again...

 

[Baymule]

So you feed her, care for her and HE gets the belly rubs!

 

[SageHill]

Just proves you pick ‘em good!

Maybe she was more attached to male of previous owner? That might explain her seeming distant to you for a while. Yeah, male smell for her?

I got to watch Hera alert at Black Vulture swooping low over fields. I yelled at it too. Then I gave Hera some scratches and good girls. She designed to accept them.

 

[Baymule]

Hahaha! Hera is training you on Black Vultures! She really needs to work on your barking!

Anatolian's acceptance of caresses is sometimes very cat like - they are doing you a favor to allow you to pet them. LOL

Today, she walked at my side and let me stroke hand down her back as I let ladies out. I think beginning of shift and end of shift are the times she allows touching. Middle of day she won't, I guess I'm distracting her from the sheep.

Hera did good yesterday morning with babies. I don't think I posted that. Everyone was locked in for night shift when Hattie LPH21 lambed. Babies were loving on mama and about half afterbirth was cleaned up when I did morning chores.
