Livestock guardian horse????? I guess the Karakachans have inducted a new member to their pack. We introduced our new ram into the herd yesterday, and the ewes loved him, but our cow-bred horse Kitty was not a fan. Kitty literally stays in the center of the flock with the Karakachans on the outside of the group. She did not like him chasing her ewes around! So she circled him, cut him out of the herd, and chased him off. He would immediately come back to the ewes. She would do the same thing over and over again. Between chasing the ram off she would go and sniff each ewe to make sure that the right ones were still in place.Kitty was immediately removed so the poor ram would not be terrorized for doing his job!

If anyone has that perfect retired horse that they are too attached to sell, we would love to give him a part time job with room and board! We are in search of a gelding to teach lessons. Awesome home, unlined Bermuda hay and pasture, 4 buddies, and worked 2-3 days each week in covered arena.

Balkan and some of our Myotonic “fainting” goats keeping cool on the red clay. Those goats just love him!

I finally got all of his undercoat off - literally 3 garbage bags full and 2 weeks of effort.

When we picked him up in Bulgaria, the breeders made a point to show us his undercoat, how it was so dense that you couldn’t even see his skin. It’s apparently very desirable. His mate, Zora had a beautiful coat, but not as thick as his underneath.

I now understand fully how their coats should ideally function. That very, very dense fluffy undercoat completely comes out as we have all seen our K’s do. But this was just a larger quantity! Such incredible protection from of course harsh weather but also predators.

But the biggest difference is what was left after that undercoat came out. My other K’s (from the same line) are smooth and soft - you can see in the video of Alexander in front of the fan how his is soft and short after the undercoat is gone . Balkan has this incredibly long protective top coat that’s very shiny, straight, thick like fishing line and coarse. It’s almost “pokey” It’s the perfect shield from the sun and here in Macon Georgia. He does not seem at all bothered by the heat!

While in Spain, the beautiful mass plantings of lavender and the flurry of bees all working in time made such a lasting impression on me. Now I have a living reminder of that beautiful place right in my own garden.

Just wanted to share some footage of everyone out walking around…. Nothing exciting, just watching their personalities develop. Everyone really even keel and confident- no standout alfas or betas. Just really alert, confident litter. Nice puppies!!! Don’t want them to go🥲

These 4 week old Karakachan puppies don’t hold anything back!!! First time meeting their much older pack mate, Alexander. Look at those tails- confidence!!!! Also look how gentle Alexander (the 6month old puppy) is with them. Love love love these dogs!!!

Confident Karakachan puppies meeting their older pack mate, Alexander 6 months old, for the first time.

More puppies and Alexander

Alexander meeting the puppies for first time today… he is so sweet and gentle!!!

It’s Penn Hip day!!!!☝️ Coco was such a good girl in the car and in the office. When the staff came to get her, I have the feeling they may not want to give her back lol
