Happy Birthday Hank

Austin's Belgian Malinois Puppy just had his very first birthday!

Happy Birthday Hank!!!! Your first year has been quite the adventure!

Baby Hank 

Bestest Buddies 

Ready for Farm Work 

Hank learned early to watch Austin's six 

and to keep little Penny Warm

Olive is a great big sister and teacher

Keeping Mr. Yesteryear Acres Tractor Safe 

Time for Love and....

Time to Train! 

Hank learned his basic commands quickly 

Fetch?

No problem!

Sit and Stay?  Got it!

What a good little puppy! 

Did you say little? 

Watch me grow! 

A little bit of swimming

A little bit of sunshine 

and Hank grew before our very eyes 

Taking care of our baby doodle puppies 

and big doodles! 

Hank is an agility master 

and has a drive like none other 

Austin and Hank work and train with police dogs

And Hank is going to be a dual purpose dog certified in narcotics detection

Hank and Austin LOVE training days!

And Hank is doing great!

Time to rest the working joints!

Ready for night work 

Hank loves scent training, drug detection training, police dog training, tracking training, agility training, protection training........

But most of all - Hank loves Austin

And Austin loves Hank 

Happy Birthday Hank!

A Fetching New Year!

Ernie McDoodle rang in the New Year at 41 pounds!!! Ernie's favorite activities include...

Watching everyone eat... And wishing for a little smackaroo. It's hard being a growing boy!

Cuddling with his best friend Hickory

I like warm hugs!

Sneaking up on the couch when Mr. and Mrs. Yesteryear Acres aren't looking... (Hehehe right Mom and Dad?)

Having all his friends over for movies

And of course, doing anything with his big brother Maverick

Everything is better with a brother!

Ernie McDoodle wishes everyone a Fetching Good Ball of a Time in 2019!!

Always,

Amelia

Foxy Doodle

Look what creature visited us this morning!

You can imagine our surprise when we opened the shutters to find....

a Foxy Doodle!!!

He was quite content roaming around Yesteryear Acres

Foxes are Amelia's favorite woodland creature

Who me?!

I am pretty cute with my big fluffy tail 

And my adorable ears 

After taking a tour, I decided I really like the place

Do you think I can stay?

What if I call myself a Foxy Doodle?!

Of course you can Mr. Fox! We would love to have you around!

Happy 2019!!!!

We rang in the New Year with Family, Food and Fun!

First Up - UNdecorating Christmas! 

Thankfully we have the best UNdecorators around! 

Bye Little Mermaid. See you Next Christmas 

New Year's Hens for everyone! 

Wild Rice Stuffing for Amelia 

Traditional Stuffing for everyone else 

Pictionary - the best way to stay awake until the Ball Drops!

Clearly my best work

And for Dessert... Amelia's Yule Log! 

Happy New Year!!!!!

Happy 2019!

and 

Happy Birthday Bri!!!!
