Triton's Farm

This week on the farm: A llama, a peacock and 3 dogs, it sounds like the start of a bad joke. I might be, but in this case they are all sharing a pen. The llama is in the dog pen to eat the grass that the dogs are growing, the dogs are locked up to protect them from coyotes and the peacock thinks the roses and dogs are the best and safest place to hatch her eggs. Daisy llama is not so sure about the dogs yet, but hasn't made fun of the boys yet. Llamas when they are scared or threatened make a high pitched laughing noise. So far Daisy has just been trying to sniff the dogs and figure out what they are doing. Hector was trying to eat his dinner with Daisy looming over trying to see what he was hunching over his bowl trying to eat. I think she thought if he was eating some grain she would like to help. Hector being the nice dog he is didn't growl just tried to pretend she wasn't there. A little difficult, but Hector lives in his own world, he makes his own reality. It's an interesting experiment in cross species co-habitation. I trust all the dogs, but Axle. Axle is still the wild card. He still does plenty of goofy things. He's a big chicken and sometimes makes up for his fear by acting tougher than he is. I have all my windows open so I can listen for any laughing or barking. Hopefully we will all get a good nights sleep tonight.
