The 3 "seasonal girls"


Its been a very girly time here the last month or so.

First Zanna came into season, 10 days later Kiwi did too and another 10 days later Vaglie decide that she couldn’t stay behind and came into season nearly 2 months earlier than expected. I wonder if next season they will all come into season at the same time.

It would have advantages and disadvantages if they did this…..

If they all came into season at the same time then the times I have to “watch out” for them is less times a year….
But keeping an eye out for 3 girls at once… wow that could be difficult.

As it was now it wasn’t too bad, and when Zanna is finally not in the mood for a lover she is actually great at keeping the boys away from the girls that are in season.

When Flecha (who was castrated) was still alive he was a wonderful guard dog when it came to keeping the male dogs away from his girls. Usually all he had to do was give them “the eye” and they would leave within seconds. And sometimes it required Flecha to move 2 steps in their direction and they would be off. And even less times he had to chase them, some times giving them a boxing. At lest that’s what it looked like as it wasn’t a fighting match, and they boys would be off within seconds and Flecha would walk back to me with I swear a smile on his face! He walked so proud tail wagging with joy. Gosh I still miss him so much.

The weirdest thing happened after Flecha died. Zanna seemed to “step into his shoes” and even though she is not the leader of the pack and has the softest little character, she took over his “female guarding duties” and is the one to ward off the boys when the other girls are in season. She doesn’t do her job the same way as Flecha did. Her tactics are to snap a barking message to the boys when they get too near. I think if you translated it to English it would mean “LEAVE US ALONE ANDGO AWAY!!!”. Zanna is kind of like a big mouthed pacifist.And the boys don’t mess with her believe me!!! It always makes me laugh to see her do her “big green hulk” demonstration and she walks just as proud as Flecha did.

Just a few more days and Vaglie will be back to “normal” too and we can walk freely again between any dogs that approach us!!!! YIPPIE!!!!!!!
