Tour of a North Dakota Farm

It occured to me the other day that no one really knows anything about where we live or what it looks like outside of our house. I thought I’d start with getting to know the animals that live at Josh’s parent’s farm right outside of Minot. When I was walking around getting pictures of all of them we counted 17 animals currently getting sustenance from the Rogers’. Let’s start with the dogs, shall we?

First we have a very large and very big teddy bear, Duke the Chesapeake Bay Retriever:

Meet Sophie, the only mini schnauzer that will eat anything, including horse manure and bugs off a car radiator.

And then the cats:
Barn Cat

Digby

Chloe
Tasha

and Linx

The Rabbits, Mr. Cuddles (the white one) and Trixy (the other one):

And now, the horses. Let’s start with the ones they just board, Chaps, Peyton and Rusty, respectively:

And the horses they own, Daisy the Queen:and Jordy (in the background):

and Wildfire:
and, finally, 2 pigs. Meet Porky:

and the newbie, a piglet named Lucy:
