Getting Ready for Spring @ Kospia Farms

 Hi Farm Friends,

It’s been a long time since I’ve had time to write to you. Life on the farm is exhausting. I know Mom puts a lot of pics of me napping on social media, but that is only because right before she snapped that picture, I was working really hard to get ready for your visit. This snow has been a real bugger, BUT don’t worry we are getting ready for YOU to come and see all the beautiful Easter flowers. I am saving up my energy to greet each and every one of you as you enter the farm. It’s a tough job, but I’m the guy for the job. I can’t wait to see you! Mom says she is excited too, but she doesn’t run to your car so… We all know who the real greeter is. Don't forget the official opening day at the farm is March 27th, I've missed all of you so much!!

Until next time, be safe, be kind and keep caring because Cutty Cares about all of you! <3 

Love,

Cutty the Talking Dog

A day in the life of me!

Hello every,

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.

Me after some frog hopping!

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!!

Fall Festival

Howdy! 

I’m still pretty busy at the farm making sure all the plants and trees get watered for all the people who come and visit us, I want everything to look beautiful. Lots of people still need plants, flowers, and trees for their patios. It’s hard work being the garden manager! It won't be warm forever so we need to enjoy it for as long as it's here. I was hinting to mom that I would really like to have all of my friends come visit me at one time. She said she came up with the perfect plan, a fall festival.

I’m not really sure what a festival is but I do know that there will be lots of cool stuff! Mom told me that there will be music and food and lots of people coming to see me, Ruby the Horse and Lucy the new baby Watusi. She even said she’s going to sing with the band. My mom is such a rockstar! Dad is going to be doing a demonstration on Bonsai trees and there will be a pie eating contest. I hope they save some for me, all this hard work makes a dog hungry. I just hope that all of my friends will come! Mom said she will post a picture of the details since I didn't get to take one myself. Thanks mom!

I'm really excited for crafts with the kids and catch-and-release fishing. I'm not sure how I will hold the pole though, I'm sure dad will figure something out. On top of all the fun we will have, theres still lot of work to be done, so I’ll be managing everyone as I walk around to greet everyone. Someone’s gotta keep these people motivated. 

Next week I'll be writing a post about a day in the life of me! It's hard working being me, but I'll share my secrets with you because were friends!

Your friend, 

Cutty
