Sometimes the baler ties a string too tight or a knot slips, usually if the hay is too wet from the dew. When that happens I go out with a wagon and load the broken bales into the wagon. Those bales will be fed up quickly, either to the grandkids’ goats or our cows.
Terry continues to haul in the whole bales with the stack wagon. Sometimes we load some of the bales into the loader.
Since Evan has been in New York, Zooker (his teacup poodle) has been taking turns staying with Misty or us. One thing Zooker LOVES is to ride on the four-wheeler! So even though he was supposed to be with the little kids, I drove down and got him, letting him help us haul hay.

A farm dog he isn’t, but boy has he loved learning how to be one.
If you had not pointed out the poodle I would have missed him! He’s definitely a dog’s dog if he likes the ATV.

A teacup poodle isn’t my idea of a farm dog either but hey, a dog can dream.

Dang, he is a cute thing…I think Evan missed Zooker more than he thought he would… Thanks to you and Misty for babysitting…Evan said Zooker would probably look like a butterball turkey when he gets back from all the treats… ha, ha….

I’m still partial to the wire we used to use. I can see all the benefits of the twine but…. It will always be second best to me.
Such a nice photo. 🙂

Now that’s adorable. Our little Chinese Crested also thinks he is a farm dog. Sometimes these tiny dogs are so very brave.

Poodles don’t know they’re little dogs – they want to run with the big dogs no matter what they’re doing!
