The Definition of "On Duty"
40 acres, several cows and 1 sleeping giant.
Titan is doing exactly what he was bred to do: staying with the stock, no matter the distractions. Cars and bikes are just background noise when you have a purpose this deep.

I’ve been sitting here trying to think of something clever to say because we hit 5,000 followers, but honestly? I’m just grateful 🥹
Ranching can be pretty isolating work sometimes. Most days it's just us, the dogs, and the livestock out here on this land. Having this space to share our 'ranch reality' and the Boz Shepherds with you all makes the world feel a lot smaller in the best way. 🐾
Knowing that so many people care about what we’re doing here means more than I can put into words. Whether you’ve been here since the start or just joined us, thank you for letting us share our life and this dirt with you. The gate is always open here.
Just call first 😉
Sunday funday?
More like Sunday school for Batur.
It was a beautiful day to get outside, but I think Batur is still deciding if this "leash thing" is actually a good idea.
We’re getting there 🐾
How was your Sunday? 😊
