Where do I even start?

So last Wednesday our farm dog, Harley went missing. We searched over 6.5 hours for him and found not one trace. So we called the SPCA right away and the animal shelter, they had no information. We kept searching until we gave up to do chores etc. Then of course we had all the show preparations to do(dishes in carriers, finding the good grooming table, cleaning out the van when it got here, etc etc. So Thursday and Friday were a mix of hanging posters, calling various places, knocking on peoples doors, and show prepartions some more.

Saturday and Sunday was the show in Victoria- VIRBA. It was an awesome show, we all I think had a great time. Show results for the woolies:

Under Manuel Hidalgo on Saturday- Leapin Fantasy was BOB Shaded Senior doe, and Jentle's Hero was BOS Self Senior buck! Then Sunday under John Grimm we had BOB with Jentle's Hero, BOSG with Leapin' Fantasy, and BOG with RH's Tonka. Cristina did awesome with her mini lops, but if she hasn't already blogged/bragged I'm sure she will : -)

So anyway we get through the weekend, all went well. The waiting list is getting very full which is great especially in the Mini lops-- and Jerseys as well-- and get this!! The best news of all almost all the inquiries are for very good bucks!! We can do bucks. We always get lots of good bucks. I think Cristina has 5 jr bucks right now, and they kept bouncing back and fourth all weekend on who was nicer. Some of those bucks are going to be just gorgeous! Anyway, so we got through the weekend sold ALL the supplies we had to take, sold some rabbits etc.

Monday and Tuesday go by, and today we are at the barn cleaning, and trying to start cleaning carriers and we get a phone call on the cell phone. Someone has spotted Harley on the railway tracks(this is a 150lb Rottweiller that is super friendly). So we roar over to this persons house to see if we can find him(she saw him on Sunday). We walked the tracks and called and called and called. No Harley. So we asked the machine shop(that we hadn't asked) and they said a few days ago they thought they saw a dog but didn't pay attention. So we called some more and No Harley. We head back to the farm to do more chores, and called on Hall Rd as well. While doing chores we get a phone call from the animal shelter that someone has seen a rottie or a doberman in their field and it was either hurt or lost or old. So we go roaring over there to meet up with the spca constable and sure enough it was Harley! Very happy to see us as we were with him and very happy to go home and go to sleep and get some food!

Now onto rabbit type things. Litters are doing well. I am not going to work on self or tan pattern Jerseys. Only shaded and pointed so I have the rest listed for sale. I also have some babies in the boxes- 2-3 are spoken for at the moment in the black litter(6 blacks 5 bucks, and 1 doe(spoken for) out of GC Jentle's Hero gorgeous blue buck X B-Mac's Canadian Mist. Jentle's Tikki X GC Jentle's Hero have a litter of 3 - blue buck, blue doe, and a blue silver marten buck. And my final litter Chantilly Lace has a litter of 1- smoke pearl doe! I think out of Munchkin but I'd have to double check. In the next year all my stock I have in the barn besides the 3 from Ashley, Cowboy, Fantasy and my pair of chins will be up for sale as I replace them with kids/grandkids etc. Quite a few already are spoken for as they come up for sale.

Other then that, that is about it! I am so so greatful to have Harley home.
