I love receiving tales of Gold from my Land of PureGold supporters. Meet Oakley. She is love of Janie Snell’s life. I will let you tell her new gardening story from this past summer.
My 8-year-old Golden, “Oakley” has found a new love this summer. She has found out that she loves to “garden”. Ha ha ha I planted a huge garden this year and it is her “duty” to patrol it. All I have to do is say “Do you want to go to the garden?” and she is on her toes and as happy as she can be. She has learned to “harvest” her own peppers, tomatoes, and most recently—sweet corn.
We have had heavy rain recently and last evening we went to the garden and she “plowed” it up for me. Needless to say, after we were done-we had to head to the garden hose. She brings so much joy to my life and has such a personality. She is missing our son who is a senior in college and the slightest mention of “her buddy” immediately has her looking at the backdoor.
What a beautiful face, and she looks like she is great at recieving hugs.
She can come and work in our garden anytime, our Hamish & Sophie are more into earth moving construction.
Yeah, Darwin was out digging his own garden today – in the lawn, unfortunately…
My goldens love most veggies and can devour tomatoes very quickly. They also climbed my guava trees and ate all the guavas…
Sigh.
