We built a new goat pen on the farm and Briar found herself doing night shift with new roommates. At first the babies were frightened of her. Now they are getting used to the dog and although they are still uneasy with her, they call to her when she leaves in the morning. Eventually their area will be expanded and Briar will be with them full-time, but for now she is with them at night and patrols the pasture around their pen in the morning when I get up.
For all the folks who have asked, Feather & Sparrow came from G-Bar Acres Nubians in Weatherford, TX. Sharon Galbreath really has some nice livestock and I can HIGHLY recommend her as a breeder of quality stock for both the show ring and the family farm. Comments:
I find myself looking at the "farm & garden" section of craigslist, my eyes glancing at the guard dogs ads that are posted. Telling myself, what are you doing, another mouth to feed and you already have 2 other dogs, plus that means goats will follow in the wake of a guard dog! Sigh!

Oh yes! It's a slippery slope!
