January 29, 2012, Day 29 of my 365 Days of Photographs

From left to right are Isis, Jade and Hunter. They are my three Anatolian Shepherds. Hunter is the dad to Jade and Isis. I had the mother of the females. Her name was Jill, and she was a wonderful dog. She was a guardian dog that we got to protect our cows and calves from coyotes, wolves, bears, etc. Jill patrolled the property daily. She had 10 puppies, and when the pups were four days old, she died. It was such a very sad thing to deal with. I became foster mom to 10 tiny pups. The vet, friends and family all told me to not be upset when I lost pups because of how much work it is to take care of newborn puppies, but I am happy to say that I didn't lose any. All 10 grew up to be amazing pups that went to live in various places throughout Canada. Well, most of them did, two of them stayed right at our place because I couldn't let go of everyone after being their mom myself. I love my crazy threesome. I took this picture when Jade and Isis were watching my little dog, Lucky, and Hunter was watching me. I thought it had a fun, quirky feel to it. Not a great picture, but an opportunity to show off a few more of my beloved critters.
