RE: Homestead Photography Contest Week #7 Winners and New Theme
I've got to enter this pic I took today for my 7 day photo challenge I participated in.
He really is an amazing dog who has kept me going through many ups and downs including my husband deploying, depression, moving from Germany back to Oregon, and daily he helps me get out bed. Sometimes it's hard to get out of bed with him, cause he's a great cuddler, but I know he's gotta pee, so out of bed we get! Haha. He is a beagle-pit mix and he is a caring guy. He is great with my chickens, and has proven to be an excellent farm dog by not killing anything. Haha. He's kept me going for over seven years now, and while he does annoy me sometimes with his barking at and chasing of the cat, or randomly stealing crap off the counter, I appreciate him every day.
This is a great story and photo! The beagles are probably my favorite type of dog, but the beagle in him may be why he likes to chase the cat :) Overall, this was a really good submission.
He's the "moderator" of the household. If I yell at the cat, Koodge is on it by running up to the cat and barking. He does mouth the cat, but hasn't bit him. Thank goodness. I think he's just trying to tell him what to do but there is a language barrier! Haha. Koodge hasn't ever been fond of young puppies, so I imagine the cat annoys him pretty good.
