Title: Just a warning.
Post by: barnray on September 30, 2016, 08:23:22 PM

We are not what we think we are, we are not what other people think we are, We are what we think other people think we are.

Learning to be a cattle dog.

I had nothing to do so decide to take some tools out to a mate that needed to build a set of hurdles for his table top. When I arrived he had the gear loaded and was heading out to fix a fence on his boundary, so of course climb up and we'll go for a drive on the tractor with Biscuit the daschund for support.

We fixed the fence but needed to move the cattle (calves) to the next paddock to new feed.

Now to some that don't know, calves have the brains of flea's they don't know that you are taking them to more feed, it's their paddock so we are gunna stay. This is where the cattle dog (biscuit) is no help at all Soooo. New Dog Barnray

2 of the calves decide to try and run forward and arround Me away from the gate they needed to go thru, Bugger (here you need to get in front and wave your arms and make yourself look big).

1 step to get in front at a run= 90mm tear in the Achilles Tendon

Soooo did the bloke who owns the calves, Still  give ya kick in the arse and yell at ya  in a high pitched nasally drawl " Git round git aarounnnd  Blue, bailim up bailimup , Cmorn blue, cmorn pushim  up push uppp "    ;D ;D
No cool drink or leftovers from tea time and a good pat and a hug with a ruffling of the ears for you if you didnt get em in the paddock ... ;D
Sorry mate hope the recovery goes well and  ya get looked after pretty well by mum, though I bet the ears are a bit sore and ringing to the tune of " just what the bloody hell were ya thinking, doing that "  ;D

I already worked out than man cannot fly, the plate and 14 screws holding my ankle together are proof of that.
