Puppy Meeting {Erin}

I really have a big whole in my house, heart..etc, right now. :-(
This month our puppy meeting was held at Claxton Farms, this was a farm that is owned privatly and only open to visitors by appointment. I decided to go minus puppy anyways, because I was feeling quite down. *sniff* I had a great time despite the fact I was missing my baby terribly.
I was able to "work" Mr.Neil, and after he realized I was the boss (typical puppy) he was a very good boy. *I love him*
This farm had so many different kinds of animals, Llamas,Donkeys, Miniture Horses, Camels, Pigs, Goats, Peacoks.....any many many more! The pups noses were going crazy with all the sights and smells! Neil was not afraid of anything that he came in contact with, and met everything with wide nosed curiosity. ::grins::
After exploring the farm for a little while, we headed back to our cars to go to the park for a picnic dinner. But as we were coming up the hill, we were met by the owner who was warning us about her herd of miniture ponies that were coming home for dinner.
Apparently two the horses had just had babies and she was concerned that they might see us as a threat. But before we could get to our cars.....here they all came to check out the visitors.
We all just stood calmly as the horses ventured closer..and closer; until they were standing the midst of us, checking out the dogs and people.
Some checked out the cars, while others posed nicely for pictures. It was great fun; None of the puppies really seemed to care that these huge animals were standing over them, and hung out as if nothing was going on.
After we finally made it back to our cars, we went on to the park were we chatted, ate and did some obedience. It was fun, but I still miss my baby.

Bubbles is happy for all the attention though :-)

Holy Puppy Poop!!! What the heck are those creatures? We recognized the ponies but we're not sure what the other ones are. You pups better be careful. Some of those beasts look evil.
