9/24/07 @ 9:30pm! Bow's baby was breech and she was in labor for nearly two hours before the vet arrived and delivered the baby alive! A true miracle...she is a gorgeous, tiny, dark spot but she needs your prayers. She was born without a tail or anus. We are taking her to UT Vet Hospital in the morning. This baby wants to live. The vet was amazed that she was still alive and we were too. Bow is doing fine and loves her baby who she thinks is just perfect. A big thank you to our wonderful vet, Dr. Greg Harris!!!!

9/24/08: Today is PTL's 1st birthday! We are having a party! Join us in person in the barn or on-line on barn cam #1 at 4:30pm!!

Update 10/25/09: Pony-Tail is continuing to do well and is as happy as she can be running around with her best friend, Poppy. We missed having a party for Pony-Tail this year but next year we plan to have a heck of a shindig on her 3rd birthday!

My World Porky, Baby Doll Sheep
ridden by Lisa Marie, Min-Pin

No, we did not put her up there! She jumped up there all by herself all the time and rode around! We no longer own the sheep and Lisa really misses them. We only have donkeys and pet dogs now.

MEAN MINNIE ME - Rat Terrier
9/10/98 ~ 7/23/08
Minnie

Minnie at 8 weeks - Minnie at 4 months in Aunt Mary's new sweater gift!
Minnie, Rat Terrier (8 wks) and Jonsie, Great Dane (11 yrs)

Jonsie, Great Dane, 11 years and Minnie, Rat Terrier, 8 weeks!
Jonsie has since passed on from old age..she was 13 years old.

Minnie developed SARDS..Sudden Acquired Retina Deterioration She went totally blind and lived several more years until her kidney's failed at 10 years of age and we had her put to sleep. She died two days after Felicia Flowers. We think Felcia was lonely in heaven and came back for her special friend. Don't tell the other dogs but Minnie was the best dog we have ever owned. She simply did no wrong! We miss you, Little Minnie.

This humiliating joke designed by my good friend,
Lisa Rouillier/Rouillier Paint Horse Farm© Thanks Lisa!! Ever wonder why your water is dirty???? This is Prissy who guarded all of our donkeys and other animals.
She has since passed away from a heart condition..she is missed!

"Shadowland's Fancy Feather"

Feather is a miniature dwarf mare measuring 24" who thinks she is 10' tall! We love our little Feather who has the run of the farm.

Update: It was a hard decision and a great sacrifice of our hearts but in August of 2006 Feather and her best friend, Drizzle, were donated to:

where they are very much loved and appreciated by the children who are in their program. We miss Feather and Drizzle but we are so proud of the work they are now doing.
