We are a small hobby farm on a little more than an acre.

My name is Mindy a mother of 3 boys, 5 beautiful grandchildren and happily married for 17 years to my best friend Jim. We live in Hudson FL located centrally on the west coast. I am originally from Indiana and Jim is from Pennsylvania, we both have lived in Florida for over 25 years. We spend most of our spare time enjoying our 5 grandchildren, 6 dogs and small a variety of Silkies. My love for chickens began when i knew I was going to be a grandmother, and wanted to have fresh colorful egg basket and share a hobby with my grandchildren. One day someone gave me a beautiful little Partridge Silkie and the rest is history. I don’t show, as I don’t have time and any extra time is spent with my family. I have had several birds from my line win at shows. How exciting is that !!!! I do breed to the SOP (standard of perfection) as best I can. And believe i have a keen eye of what Is consider a beautiful Silkie. I am very proud of my birds and will always find things to improve. We also enjoy raising our Lionhead and Holland Lops and offer babies from time to time. Also I have a passion for gardening, decorating, cooking, making elderberry syrup, Bird herb and taking photos around our farm. Our animals are our happy place and an enjoyable kind of therapy we choose for relieving stress and anxiety. Our flock free range daily as i believe a happy chicken is a healthy chicken. We are as organic as possible. Our dream was to move to a little urban farm and retire with hobbies that we both have a passion for and enjoy.

⏰💜 Every day Thaddeus spends in a kennel is another day his tail struggles to heal. He doesn’t need another bandage…he needs a home. 💜⏰

Meet Thaddeus—the happiest dog you’ll ever meet.

His tail wags so hard whenever he sees people that it repeatedly hits the kennel walls, causing painful injuries called “happy tail.” Our veterinary team has treated it again and again, but it’s nearly impossible to heal while he continues living in a kennel.

The cure isn’t another bandage.

It’s a loving home.

Whether you can adopt or foster, a quieter home environment will give Thaddeus the chance to heal while still being the joyful, people-loving dog he was born to be.

If you foster, we’ll simply ask that you bring him back to the shelter to meet potential adopters.

Thaddeus has been waiting since early April, and every day he greets visitors with the same hopeful smile, convinced that today will be the day someone chooses him.

Could that someone be you?

More About Thaddeus 🐾

Thaddeus is a handsome boy who's guaranteed to turn heads and collect compliments everywhere he goes. Smart and eager to please, he already knows sit, paw, down, fetch, and even how to catch treats midair like a pro!

Playful and affectionate, he loves toys, gives kisses, and fully believes he's a lap dog despite his size. Though life hasn't always been kind to him, Thaddeus hasn't let hard times dim his loving spirit.
With good meals, kindness, and a family to call his own, this sweet boy is ready for the bright future he deserves—one filled with love, comfort, and plenty of cuddles.

Previous Foster Update: Thaddeus is housebroken and has done well playing with his foster's 8-year-old Shepherd. ❤️
