The dogs of course live the great life around here. When the weather gets cold they get to spend their days indoors.
Samantha has gotten more boxer like as she has gotten older...she's getting to be an old lady. She still has Lindsay's heart and always will. She's a good dog. She has a bed in the corner of our living room, but both dogs like to lay under our big table in the kitchen!
Do you have animals? What challenges do you have with them in the wintertime?

Ethan enjoyed looking at the pictures of the animals with me.
Enjoy your day!
It's still been very mild here, and we don't even have the furnace on yet. We're thankful for that.
It will be interesting to see how the chickens fare through the cold this winter.
We keep the chickens water in the heated coop area. The lightbulb and the chickens put off enough heat to keep it from freezing most of the time.
I have decided Victoria thinks she is a squirrel.
Each morning, I have to raise the blinds on the doors leading out to the deck, just so she can look longingly at the squirrels.
At first, I thought she saw them as a kitty snack and then one day it dawned on me that the look was one of deep desire to have their freedom.
Little does she know what the outside world is really like for animals. :)
I love seeing pictures of animals. Part of the reason I enjoyed The Pioneer Woman's cookbook was all the pictures of the ranch!
These are so great! I've always wanted horses & yours are beautiful. My sister- & brother-in-law have around 60 chickens. They have a beautiful house for them with perches & egg boxes. We have 2 dogs & a cat, but no farm animals. They're inside animals, although when it's nice outside the dogs (Ginger & Jake) like to spend hours in the backyard. It's cute to see them laying on their backs sunning themselves! We'd like to have farm animals if we're ever blessed to move to the country.
You can tell I'm a So. California gal. I've never heard of a trough heater :-) We do have to empty and refill the dogs water most mornings during the winter though. It's frequently frozen. I don't recall that happening much in South Bay.
Blessings,
Marcia
My answer to your question deserved a little 'splaining. You've been linked here!
