The Quiet was short lived with Linda the Rooster.....Yesterday morning I needed to take out the trash, but Linda was hanging out right outside the door! I figured I would wait him out so I went into my kitchen and he moved to where my window is! He was eyeing me through the kitchen window! I waited awhile, still there. My next course of action was to get my Shepard.....I let her go out the door first. LINDA DOESNT LIKE MY DOG! Big surprise there. She chased him off the porch so I could get my trash out and head to my burn barrel. I got there and Leia (my Shepard) followed. All was well, Leia went off to smell something, but I felt his presence approaching. I could not for the life of me get that trash to light! I turned, he had followed me! He immediately acted like he was eating grass when he saw me look at him. 🙄 I tried to ignore him and continued to try to light that stupid bag! I knew I would be in trouble soon because he loves to corner me by my burn barrels. I called to my dog, she didn't respond, she just kept sniffing. He was getting closer so I called Leia again, much louder this time. All the while still trying to light that trash! I had to leave it in the barrel. By this time, I was still calling Leia and finally she came running! She loves Linda. She started playing with him running and barking at him. She was having a great time. At this point I just watched. Linda, however, was not having a great time. His feathers were raised and he was jumping and trying to peck at her nose. I decided to start heading back to the house while he was distracted. Leia decided the fun was over and went to the house with me. Close encounter averted. This time.
