1) Maisy tried to run away, and not only that, but entice Rosa to come along with her.
2) Maisy and Rosa sniffed out a seriously dead rodent and had their faces covered in rotting animal smell. I'm not going to lie. Maisy led this charge as well.
3) The "naughty dogs" from down the street, so named because they claw at the windows in an attempt to bust out of their house whenever anyone walks by, escaped from their yard and appeared at the back of the farm, strongly considering catapulting over the fence.
4) I went to get the naughty dogs to take them back home.
5) In response, Maisy impersonated SuperDog and flew through the air OVER THE FARM FENCE with such force that she popped the safety latch of her gentle leader.
6) Then, she ran through the zucchini, through the lettuce, through the carrots, and through the watermelon to give the naughty dogs a piece of her mind regarding their presence on her farm.
7) Finally, I had to drag Maisy back through the entire farm, launch her over the fence, reattach her to her tie out, and make it clear that she would be finding herself in time out for the rest of life.
All in 20 minutes, folks. Why am I telling you this, oh lovers of Farming and not necessarily of dogs? Well I'll tell you. All the Romaine had to be pulled because it was torn (luckily much of it was still edible), one of the zucchini plants may be gone for good, and the watermelon plants were kind of torn up. All in all, not too much was lost, but some harvesting was done unexpectedly last night... You won't believe what the farm looks like when you see it next MiniChuck Eye View Wednesday.
And a few things were harvested today, mostly for Suburban Gardener, who won the volunteer contest. Note: it's a tiny carrot because I was thinning them, and the cukes clearly need to be fertilized...
