Lilly is learning to be sweet to the mules next door. We’ve been training looking at them without barking or trying to get a rise out of them. If she looks or stays calms, then she gets treats. I even let her race them along the fence line, as long as she’s quiet. They seem to seek her out, sometimes standing at the fence looking for her. Yesterday, I called for her outside and found the cutest thing. I think she’s adopted them as her sheep.
She was laying in a perfect down, right near the fence, just watching the mules graze. But, when I went out to tell her she was a good girl, she barked and made them run away. Almost like she was showing off. So, I came back in. And, again, she settled in to watch her mules. I shot these photos through the kitchen window with as much telephoto as my camera could muster.
