Jenna and her sister came out of Spirit Rivier Saskatchewan. I drove to Lloydminster to pick them up, and it was a terrible snow storm too. The little girls were the last two of the litter and the farmer had little or no use for them. It is likely he fed them, but sheep love dog food and being small, they were not able to fend the sheep off and got nothing to eat. They ate grain and pulled wool to stay alive.
They were also badly abused, likely kicked back into the sheep pen. Jenna's sister has permanent hip damage from a previous injury as a baby. Both girls have only just come around, 2 years after being here at The Fat Ewe Farm, but Jade will still not go to strangers and hangs way back, in case they will hurt her. Jenna is starting to be more outgoing and she always has smiles for me. She is very sweet natured and was the under dog until last winter. Her ear was torn in a fight when she was not allowed to have food with the pack. At a certain point after that, she had had enough and used her whiles to defeat her sister, which surpirsed her and earned respect from the other dogs. Now Jenna can approach and eat with the pack. She will always be shy though. Isn't she ever so cute?
