Christmas came early.

For the dogs here at the ranch, Christmas came a few days early.

Normally when there's work to be done at the chutes,
the dogs stay in a pickup so the cows don't get agitated.

But last week, the dogs got to stay out and play -
and for the most part, they stayed out of the way.

And then....Christmas came early.

Or rather, lunch was served, and since we were eating outside by the chutes, the dogs had a feast too.




Because how can you resist puppy dog eyes who just want a little piece of your bread?

Or a puppy who just wants to be held?

(Yes, Sarge is really a puppy....just a very LARGE puppy!)
