Why you don’t see blankets on our younger, fat ponies until the temp drops, and we have icy, wet weather.

The indomitable Camberley Kate, aka Kate Ward, and her stray dogs in England 1962.
Camberley Kate was born on June 13, 1895 in Middlesbrough. Orphaned before the age of ten, she was raised by an aunt in a strict religious atmosphere. As a young girl she went into service and eventually found her way to Camberley. In later years she once claimed to have been head cook at the RMC at the time of the Battle of the Somme, even though she was only 21 years old.
She also mentioned that she knew what it was like to be homeless.
In 1943, Kate bought a cottage in Yorktown and soon took in her first stray, a dog that was about to be euthanized because of lameness.
Over time, the number of dogs in her home grew - some tied to her door, others left in carriers, others brought to her by police or other authorities. By the end of her life, she estimated that she had cared for more than 600 dogs.
Kate and her olive green handcart marked "STRAY DOGS" were a familiar sight in the area as she pushed it from Yorktown to Camberley every day.
She died on August 4, 1979.

Ok! So I know it’s been Radio Silent. I’m sorry, the last couple of years between the storm, having to close the big farm (Amphitheater location) which meant shutting down everything we had worked so hard to build out there. No fault of ours, Covid kicked us in the teeth following the storm, then our Dear Friend who owned the land, got a second, more aggressive form of cancer and passed far to quickly from it. Anyways….. We still have been breeding our beautiful little Goats, many nieces and nephews of our beloved D**K! Who’s doing great and has the role of grumpy uncle to the babies lol. We are down sizing some and selling off all of our bucks as at this point this season and last season will all be related. Plus we want to give a season off to our girls while we take our time finding a new buck to fit our current breeding model. We also have week old kids, with a couple of bucks there
That will becoming available when weaned as well as a current bottle baby I’m raising, that I would consider selling to a great home. He’s a spoiled cutie! So if you are, or know anyone who may be interested, this is a good group of bucks with the oldest at only 3. Peter (Pan) is out of our bottle baby Tinker Bell, and he was also bottle raised. The little belted Galloway looking boy would be a stunning addition as a breeding buck to any herd. 😁

We have several Bucks available for sale. We are a small hobby farm, and breed Pygmy/Nigerian crosses for smaller size pets, and emotional support animals upon request. We have a current population...
