Cutty here! Today I'm going to take you through a day in the life of me, I hope you're ready because my schedule is usually pretty packed.
Every morning I wake up and wait for mom and dad to get ready, then they get me ready by putting on my shiny orange vest. For breakfast I always get to share half of moms breakfast sandwich which is always a good start to the day.
When it's nice enough to do it I love to stick my head out the window as we drive to the farm, it is a good motivator in the morning, better than coffee. Yuck. When we get to the farm the real work begins, I have to make sure everything is running smoothly so I usually take a walk around the farm to check everything out. Once everything is ready to go we open the gates for customers. I used to be really shy around them, but I've opened up a lot since I first started and now I greet the customers with a little bark just to say hello. This also let's mom and dad know that people are here in case they are back with my Watusi friends. I forgot once and mom was not happy! She said it was an accident and gave me an ear rub anyways! I'm one lucky dog.
Sometimes I catch a quick nap, but don't tell mom. She thinks I'm always working hard. When I'm at home or have the day off I go running in the mountains with my sister or bury bones in the yard. When I'm at work and not too busy sometimes I chase the geese and hop after the frogs. I think they like these games but they always run away so I can't be sure. I also play with my best friends Ricky, Ruby, and Lucy.

Some days we get to go on field trips! My favorite place to go is the Tractor Supply! I'm allowed to go in and all of the workers there give me lots of treats and hugs. I'm very popular. When mom's been working really hard sometimes we go to the chiropractor if she needs and adjustment. I get to lay under the table and mom gets to feel better. It's a win-win.
During the end of the summer and beginning of fall dad, mom, and I start getting everything ready for winter. This means we start cleaning everything up at the farm and the house so dad has plenty of space for the plow when the snow comes. I also get to help them chop wood, this is really important to us because it heats the house in the winter and I need there to be a fire when its cool because it's one of my favorite places to take naps (its very cozy).
At the end of the day I get to go home eat some dinner and play with my sister before I curl up and go to sleep. When I wake up I get to do it all over again.
I hope you guys enjoyed a day in the life of me, as you can see it's pretty packed with stuff but I always have time for my friends so stop by the farm and visit sometime!
Gotta go, it's time for dinner!!
Cutty
