in A Day in the life of Fraggle
Well interesting couple of days in the world of fraggle. Someone decided that we were neglecting her, and called the RSPCA, telling them that she had had no water or food or shelter. Funny thing was, when the inspector got here, fraggle had just finished her breakfast and was gnawing on a bone, had some treats in a bowl, and a bowl full of biscuits, and a huge bucket of water, i will admit the water wasnt today fresh, it was 2am saturday fresh. The only thing that the inspector could say was she needs shelter ( there is a tree and a sort of lean to, and we were going to build a shelter in the next few days, just ended up being done today). So we shall see how it goes when the inspector comes back on wednesday.
Other news for fraggle is, we took her to where we are currently fixing our car. This place has sheep, Fraggle went to go chase them and was told ah ah, and came back and laid down and didnt bother about the sheep (or alpacas!).

in A Day in the life of Fraggle
When Fraggle was 10 months old, we upped and moved from suburbia to the rural life. I decided to train Fraggle with the animals as where we were living had sheep, horses, goats and chickens.
Fraggle quickly learnt to be mindful of the horses, after my big gelding warned her in no uncertain words to mind her distance. The goats warned her off with their horns, so she learnt to respect them too. The chickens and sheep were the hardest. When either ran away, Fraggle would run after them and of course scare them.
By the time we moved from this property, Fraggle was also good with the chickens, but would constantly try and herd the sheep and if they didnt do what she wanted them to do she would snap at them.
One close shave later and we abandoned the idea of teaching her to work with sheep for now.
Another problem we had while out country, was that she so closely resembles a dingo that we had to constantly know where she was at all times. We ended up decking her out in a bright collar, and a jacket most of the time, so she wouldnt get shot on sight.
