Holly Loves Helping With Chores At Briden Farm

Holly At Her Master’s Feet

Morning and Night we do Chores at Briden Farm and Holly Loves Helping With Chores.

Holly come to Briden Farm mid April and has fit right in. Before coming here, she was loved and well treated by her loving Human Parents, but she led somewhat a sheltered life. She’s a Golden Retriever, Nova Scotia Duck Toller mix and therefore very much a water dog. However, other than Bath Time, she’d never been in the water, and she was very timid, hiding behind her master, or in her kennel, when friends visited with other dogs. On Holly’s third day here, with us, she was coming outside, on leash, to do chores with us. After a few days we no longer needed the leash. I remember one day when She first encountered our Pigs! She heard one of them Grunt, Tom I think, but it may have been Jerry, and She took off! The next day she walked up and touched noses through the gate! Not something I encourage, but it sure was neat to see!

Now, as you can see in the video, Holly gets very excited just at the mention of helping with chores! It’s very encouraging.

Holly Come To Briden Farm

We’re very pleased to tell You that we now have a Dog at Briden Farm! Not just any Dog either! As some of You know, I have been waiting and hoping for a Dog who just needs a good home! Perhaps one where her Senior Owners have reached the point where they just need a good home for their Dog. If possible I’d like that Dog to be a Little River (Nova Scotia Duck Toller) and Golden Retriever mix. We had two of these Dogs, one after the other, when I was growing up and they’re so great! So, kind of like when we asked for the impossible last Summer when God led us to our Homestead that we now call Briden Farm, I also have been praying for the impossible when it comes to getting a Dog! Well, with God things are never impossible! A day or two ago a friend recommended us as the potential new parents of Holly, and now Holly has come to live at Briden Farm and we’ve been able to help Her former owners, Seniors, and she is a Little River / Gold Retriever mix just like we asked for! So, Holly Comes to Briden Farm! The photo looks like I’m scowling, but it’s just my inability to take a good Selfie! I’m actually very happy! 😉
