Sally, Queen of the Pyrenees
In her younger days, Sally could jump over every gate and fence, pull full grown Great Pyrenees around by their manes, chase a stubborn goat right into my waiting hands, and catch escaped chickens without inflicting damage. She left us two months before her 18th birthday.

Pebbles
Rainbow Bridge 2023
"Pebbles and her daughter Fruity slipped their collars and took off and had a big ol' escape run. Fruity ran, Pebbles kind of hobbled behind. It was their last run together and now I am thankful they had it."

Taffy

Blue Tractor Farm
Hard decisions were made today. And our hearts are broken. We loved this girl terribly and her love for us was fierce. She took EVERY step we took, wind, rain, snow, or sunshine. We often felt bad as we would run out to the barn in the rain to grab something, and she'd get up off the dry, cozy bed she was lying on to walk with us, just to turn around and come right back after retrieving whatever we'd ran to get. We'd say, "No, Taffy. Stay. It's raining and I'm coming right back." She didn't care, she was going to walk with you. She was going to be with you. She knew her job on the farm and did it well. We couldn't have started Blue Tractor without you, girl. Rest well, Taffy Lou.

Baby
Baby is teaching her adopted son how to be a good livestock guardian. "She is just a beautiful dog, and great with the kids. She is a perfect fit for our family, and we can't wait to see Huey grow. They are very comfortable with the sheep and goats. We love how neither one of them are super aggressive at all. It makes feeding time so much easier than what we were used to before."
