Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang

Hi everyone. It's me Mia.
I'm sitting on my favorite bench on the front porch taking it easy. It has been a very busy week here at the ranch. Ms. Charlene has a new job besides taking care of all of us. She is going to sell insurance and has to study for a test. Boy I sure am glad we don't have to study for test too. I remember how hard it was for me to learn how to walk on a lease and ride in the truck.
Ms. Charlene says it is good for all of us to learn new things. I'm not sure I understand why so I'll just sit here and enjoy the view because I do know how lucky we are to have such a great place to live!
Sugar is still getting use to the farm and Ms. Charlene is getting used to Sugar. Ms. Charlene said Sugar is VERY hyper and frisky and she will need a lot more training before she can compare to the trail horse that Precious has been over the years. Ms. Charlene said she will at least give her a chance and spend extra time working with her.
Well don't forget to order a copy of my book, "Stories from Black Dog Ranch" or tell a friend about it. You can order it on my website; http://www.blackdogrescueranch.com/ or go to barnesandnoble.com
I better go for now. Talk more soon,
Mia

Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang

Hi everyone. It's me Mia.
Well another week has gone by here at the ranch and all of us are feeling pretty frisky lately. The weather has really cooled down and being true farm dogs we love cool weather! It is a great time to play and wrestle around with each other without getting all hot and slobbery.
Ms. Charlene took our new horse, "Sugar" on a trial ride this week-end and she said she did pretty good. She said Sugar is going to be a handful once she gets to feeling good again. Ms. Charlene bought her from a man that deals in a lot of horses and just like kids that go to school where there are a lot of other kids someone is always going to have a cold or something and Ms. Charlene says that Sugar has a cough and a rash on her skin she probably picked up from one of those other horses. Ms. Charlene called the Vet and got some medicine so hopefully Sugar will be back to being good as new before long.
Well as always don't forget to pick up a copy of my book, "Stories from Black Dog Ranch" or if you already have a copy be sure and tell one of your friends!
I guess I better go for now. Talk more Soon,
Mia

Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang

Hi everyone. It's me Mia. Betty and I are standing here with Ms. Marie and her grandson Oakley. They came out to the ranch today to play with Ms. Charlene's new horse, "Sugar". She is a beautiful Blue Roan Tennessee Walking Horse. Ms. Charlene is going to use Sugar as her new trail horse because Precious is getting older and Ms. Charlene says since she has been such an awesome horse all these years she deserves to just take it easy her on the farm. After Ms. Marie, Oakley and Ms. Charlene spent some time with Sugar and the other horses they went to Ms. Charlene's Mom & Dad's Farm and picked pumpkins. It was a great fall day and this last picture shows you just how Blessed we feel here at the Black Dog Ranch! Well don't forget to order your copy of my book if you haven't already; http://www.blackdogrescueranch.com/ Talk more soon, Mia

Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang

Hi Everyone. It's me Mia. Well another week here at the ranch and things have been going great. We got to see a real live coyote the other morning. There were two of them out in our pasture very early that morning just checking things out and Teddie went crazy because he couldn't get out of the fence and chase after them. I think they knew Teddie couldn't get out so they kind of hung out for a while teasing him until Ms. Charlene heard all the barking going on and came outside. They sure did take off after that. Ms. Charlene told Teddie that coyotes are wild and he might get hurt by one of them. Teddie and Mickey decided it was more fun just to hang out on the porch and play than to take a chance and maybe get hurt by one of those coyotes. Precious got a new pair of boots this week too. They look funny on her feet, but Ms. Charlene said they will help protect her feet from getting sore when she walks on rocks. Precious has foundered feet and she requires special care. Ms. Charlene loves her soooo much she bought her some special horses boots that will make her feel much better! Ms. Charlene has some school presentations coming up in the next week so be sure and check out our comments page on the website for up coming events. Ms. Charlene loves to talk to all those wonderful children about my book and all of us here at the ranch. Well I guess I better go for now. Talk more soon, Mia
