Sunday August 19, 2018 Thank you for all the messages and condolences over our loss of Claire. Sometimes I wonder if my heart is too involved to be a good shepherdess, but it’s the only way I can do it. If an animal exists because I put a male and female together the previous year then I feel it is my responsibility to be here when there are born and to make sure they have the best possible life. I do not take that lightly. That is part of why I’m struggling with my decision on breedings for next year. Of course I love the babies, perhaps too much! But the waiting for the birth and fretting the first few days can add gray hairs for sure. I have a few more weeks to make my decisions. There’s always hair color.
