Goats and Sheep – Oh My!

Last nite, Chip and I took the dogs for a walk at Coyote Hills. We ran smack into the herd of goats and sheep that graze there over the winter. I read that they help control non-native plants. Everybody was very interested in us and most particularly the dogs.

Poor Cho-Cho learned a lesson. That small black roly-poly dog is Cho-Cho. Notice how she is right up against the fence and the sheep/goats are respectfully far away. Yes, the fence was electrified. Cho-Cho let out a mighty yelp a few seconds after this shot. After that, Cho-Cho went as fast as her little legs could go back to the car. That was the fastest that our very lazy little dog has moved since we adopted her a year ago.
