the pup contimplates the pond

goldfish pond, about 500-600 gallons. not deep enough for wintering the fish, so they too come inside in October. along with the house plants.

Ole Blue managed to destroy all those water hycinths and most of the water iris. Luckily the iris grow back regardless of what you do to them. The hys need to be replaced every year. This year I didn't bother, just covered everything with fencing to keep him out. The little rascal gets his nose under the fence and lifts it up. Smart lad... but messy when he gets hold of something, as it needs shaken. His latest thing was to grab the barley ball and shred it.

I have had him help pull the iris out of the pond when I need to catch the fish for fall moving! He just loved that to death.. PULL boy.. tug that out for momma! he WAS SO PROUD. heavier than the hubs and I could lift. Those dogs are STRONG.
