So, now who’s going to donate money to the Yakape fund?
For laughs and other news:
The kids wanted to wish you a wonderful Easter! (the little one in the green sweatshirt is a cousin!)
Thomas wanted to remind everyone to remove the shell BEFORE eating your eggs!
Also, don’t forget chocolate easter bunnies are DELICIOUS!
Shreya just celebrated her 4th birthday! She wanted you to know that blowing out candles and singing the Happy Birthday song several times in a row is much better than just once!
We wanted to welcome Little Timmy to the farm! He’s born on his big Uncle Timmy’s birthday. Maybe on Uncle Timmy’s 36th birthday we can eat Little Timmy for dinner! Also pictured is Lambkin. She’s our new orphan ewe Hannah is bottle raising. She follows the kids around just like Mary.
THIS is why I prefer hairsheep to wool sheep! This ewe is sporting a new haircut now. It looks a bit like mange. Sorry old girl, but it’s better than the freezer!
The twins are growing quite large! Rambo has lived up to his name as THE hardest animal to catch on the farm. Mario is going to have to get used to his name now that it’s finally decided.
Snickers is due to kid yet. She is quite large. I am betting on triplets this time. She appears to be ready any moment and keeps making bug-eyed lamaze breathing faces at us.
Snickers will leave you with the final word of advice for the day- always chew your food well!
You have to register an account with You Tube to vote. Unfortunately, I am unable to send a direct link to the video, only a link to the top 20.
So, go to the link above, type “Water On” in the search bar, click it, watch it, vote on it. (click the green thumbs up to vote) You’ll get a laugh out of it too!
You can vote once a day and they need our votes, so keep on voting! If you really want to help, scroll through the other videos and give them all a red thumbs down.
Remember Diesel? He was the wiry, wild little black Brussels who went to live with with his new family in Florida. He was a 2007 puppy from Muffin and Oscar.
Well, Diesel was nominated to win a contest!! The winner is decided by online vote and time is short- the contest ends TOMORROW JANUARY 31st! If you would like to vote and help him win- CLICK HERE!
Of course, the little man has Gallagher Farm’s vote!
We have been updating the website off and on nearly all day. We have the past puppies of all our mommas up on the website now. There are a few more recent pictures we need to put in for a few that have sent back pictures. I know we are missing pictures of a couple of our dogs too. I will get those up this weekend too.
So- please have a look at our “past puppies” and the “where are they now” maps of all our puppies. There are separate maps for miniature Dachshunds, standard Dachshunds and Brussels. It’s fun to see where they all have gone. Hover over the tab and you will see the puppy’s name, owner’s name and a thumbnail photo of the pup.
One new section on website that should appear this weekend is The Mercantile. Hannah has been dying to have a way to make some extra money. She knits and sews and is very crafty. So, she plans to fill the Mercantile with her handmade goods. She has just a few things to open the store with, but seeing her stuff online I’m sure will set her hands to working fast!
I hope you are all enjoying your summer. It’s coming to an end! I have a breather right now with just 4 of Hazel’s puppies and Cooper but the storm of puppies is about to hit. So- stay tuned for more puppies! Thanks for reading.
