šŸ“… September 2 – Snowshoes for Hooves
Did you know reindeer have extra-large, rounded hooves that act like natural snowshoes?
In summer, their footpads are soft and spongy for better grip on muddy ground. But in winter, those pads shrink and tighten, exposing the hard, sharp hoof edges—perfect for gripping ice and snow!

Some places leave footprints on your heart.

This is the story of the little cabin that taught me what hospitality really looks like.

Hey there, folks. Jack here. Yes, that Jack—the handsome one with the gorgeous neck and the million-dollar smile. šŸ˜Ž
I know what you're thinking:
"Aw, look at that sweet nose!"
"He wouldn't cause trouble!"
"He’s just standing there, being adorable!"
Wrong.
It’s rut season, baby. And while I may look cool, calm, and collected… I’m cooking up chaos. I’ve got fences to test, buckets to flip, and girls to romance. Maybe I’ll chase a shadow. Maybe I’ll pose for the camera like a king. Who knows? I’m unpredictable. That’s the fun of it.
So go ahead—snap a photo. Admire my beauty.. Compliment the coat. Just… maybe don’t turn your back. šŸ˜‰

There’s a whole lot of life at Goldendale Reindeer that never makes it to social media.

Behind the Fence on Patreon is where we share more of it — the stories, the everyday moments, the things that go wrong, the things that make us laugh, and the parts of this life that deserve more than a 15-second reel.

For $10 a month, you become a part of our private online community where you'll get a little closer to the herd and the real life behind Goldendale Reindeer, all while supporting what we do here.

Come Behind the Fence with us. Link in bio to join. ā¤ļø

When you're in the middle of rut and it's still 90 degrees out... you cool off like royalty.
Our bull reindeer are full of swagger this time of year. Fueled by hormones and heat, they get a little bold, a little dramatic—and a whole lot mischievous. This guy decided the water bunk wasn’t just for drinking... it was his personal throne.
During rut, bulls show off their strength, strut their stuff, and sometimes cause a little chaos. Whether it’s sparring with a rival or claiming the best ā€œcool downā€ spot, they’re always putting on a show.
Long live the (very damp) king.
