- - - we got some great little pets to love and take care of, but there
is a sad end to this wonderful story of our pets that we got to love for
only a very short time.

We have some very sad, very awful news. Some awful, bloodthirsty dogs came on to OUR property and killed our pet Goats - Nora & Dora. These goats were bottled fed since birth and given to us by some great people who entrusted them to our care. We even were expecting some babies - yes these goats were gonna be momma goats and didn't get the chance. We got home after work on Tuesday, luckily Joseph stayed over at some friends house to eat dinner, and Johnny found these poor little, defenseless pets slaughtered in their own shelter- their "safe haven". Even worse, 1 of the vicious animals stayed cowered in the shelter with our babies. And then even worse, there was another 1 lingering around. We called the Sheriff's Dept. and they in turn called the animal control and an ACO came out to pick up the 2 that lingered around their kill. There is a pack of about 5-6 animals that roam our area. They do not stay on their own property. And even worse yet, the owners have until Monday to pick these killing creatures up. That is terrible, that animals can kill other animals and then be set free to kill again. We had some roaming chickens in our area, but ever since these killing creatures have moved in, all those little defenseless creatures are gone too. When will this stop? How can we stop this? We were told by the sheriff's officer that these "goody, goody animal lovers" have interfered enough that we can not shoot animals killing our animals, only if they are harming people. So these idiots don't have sense enough to realize once these creatures kill they will just do it again since they have a taste for it now.
We also have a shetland pony, his name is Cream & Sugar. He got some scratches on his legs from these horrible animals. And he is missing his little buddies. He walks over to their shelter and looks in from time to time. It is just tragic that this has happened. And especially since we can't do a darn thing about it. It's so sad.
