How to be a ranch/farm dog as told by Darby Crash and Lisa:
1. Take every opportunity to get dirty, really really dirty. Anytime you seed dirt dig it, eat it, fling it, lay in it. If it's wet dirt (otherwise known as mud), that's oh so much better.
2. If there isn't any dirt readily available, make some.
)
3. Other substrates are just as fun, if not more, than dirt or mud. Run through them at top speed. Bonus points if the ranch cats have 'utilized' the substrate.
4. Run fast, run hard. Find every piece of farm equipment, every fence post, every stray bit of rock or fencing material to run over or into. Bonus points for breaking something on yourself or the item you ran into/over. Double bonus points for breaking both.
(
5. Help with the farm chores like cleaning stalls, sweeping hay and monitoring the activities of the barn cats.
6. Help with the planting. When the mom-lady digs holes and puts plants in them, help by walking behind her and stomping them into the dirt real hard. It helps the roots. When you get specific instructions shouted at you, help more by sitting down on them, and then roll over on top of them, squirm around and show the mom-lady your dirty feet so she can see how hard you've been working.

DeeDee is quite the earth dog!
I wish I had that much fun in the dirt. It must be nice to have pups that wear each other out. Cute videos.
Looks like non-stop ranch fun!
It really is all fun all the time up here. I invite any of you to come, bring your dogs and stay a while. You'll LOVE IT. Home cooked meals, hiking trails that go for miles and miles and forever into the sunol wilderness, and a comfy guest bed to come home to. Horses to ride if you feel like it. mi casa es su casa, for reals. All you gotta do is ask, oh, and help with the dishes. :)
