My German shepherd will pull squash off the vine during the summer. His stomach makes loud noises but he does it each year. He is 9 now. He has been getting home made food the last year or so. He always gets scraps. Love that dog.
We had one named King. When we shucked corn and put it out for the horses King would guard the shucks not letting the horses near them. He did not want the shucks of course but he would not let the horses have them either.
We can’t have a big dog out here if we let him run because the people with cattle will shoot them on sight and I won’t keep one penned up.
