Early in September I got a call from the good neighbour saying our pig must have got out and it was chasing the cows. Funny I said we don't have a pig. Thinking back to two months earlier I remembered the little dog chasing my sheep. I asked Ken if he was sure it wasn't a Terrier type dog. "NO NO It's a pig" Then I said Meat Head must be collecting pigs now. Poor Ken that was the last thing he needed to hear. You see Ken and Meat Head share a fence line and are mortal enemies.
This week Jerry and I headed out to the back pasture to sort out some fresh sheep. I sent Isla out to bring the sheep. Jerry says " What the heck is that. A dog." It was chasing Isla on her outrun. It was on the other side of the fence. I called Isla off and we jumped in the Ranger to go and chase the Dog! off. We found this!

Meet my new Guardian Dog! He is mostly a parameter kind of working dog.
As we walked up to the fence he was happily waggin his tail. Still not sure who he belongs to. I refuse the phone Meat Head and ask him if the pig belongs to him. I was totally ready to keep him as a pet and Jerry was totally ready to cook him for supper.
Here he is working the parameter.

fun! what are you going to name him?
you could teach him to herd sheep like in the movie Babe :)
that'll do pig, that'll do ...
Ah! Sarah
That would have been a much better blog title. Is there anything you can't do?
I still think a little garlic and fresh rosemary, arranged in a crown roast style with a stuffing of wild rice and mushrooms. A side of fresh grilled zucchini, red peppers, mushrooms and onions, tossed in a light olive oil, garlic and pine nuts with feta would be the best possible outcome.
