The house is build in the year 1985 and it has
been particularly decorated to suit in to my life company with
the dogs. As I have close relatives allergic to dogs, my dream was
to have a house with the opportunity to invite also those
individuals to visit us for time to time. With this plan on my
mind I decided to decorate whole downstairs of the building just
for the dogs.
Over half acre
yard is fenced so that my dogs, small & big, get to run freely.
All dogs live with me inside the house, they are considered to be
part of the family and most trusted friends. Puppies will also
grow in the middle of our daily life and are soon integrated with
the adult dogs so that they can learn the social skills needed to
became a well socialised dogs.
During my first
winter in the new house, I noticed the amount of small tenants I
had in the upper parts of the building. Thankfully the mousses
didn't run on the floors downstairs but kept me awake by
scratching the sealing. So, when my work colleagues mother was
having kittens to her cat, I decided to go and see the little
mousetraps. Now, I couldn't imagine life without cats!
After I bought the house
my friends joked about me having sheep's or goats to take care of
the yard. Indeed, in the beginning it really _was_ just a joke.
Fall 2008 I participated in herding with my dogs and since then I
began to wonder would it be possible to have animals right here at
home which my dogs could herd. After that, the decision was easy
to made. Spring 2009 the first goats moved to our little ranch and
I have even began to dream of few sheep's to companion them.
To me, as animals
are so important part of my life, it has been clear right from the
beginning that this lifestyle is the only one for me. It has been
a long and sometime frustrating journey to prove my relatives to
acknowledge the same thing!
Along with each
animal comes a significant responsibility, there is just no point
of having them if one doesn't have enough time for them. Sometimes
it is hard to make the pack work together and at the same time be
forced to do difficult decisions. In order of everything going
well, one has to think very carefully which animal is going to
stay, or in addition, which you can have at all. Every animal
needs to be taking care of and even more: one has to have time to
love them also individually.
I have all kind
of exiting ideas to carry out in the future, lets se which one of
those are going to come true! Finally I can live my Lifedream true
with the dogs in our every day life.
