We have raised sheep for 50 years and have always had the special Golden Girls who earned the right to live out their last years with special treatment on the farm.
You were lucky to be able to afford that, and so too them. Having grown up on a beef farm, I understand Sandi's reality. We had 'pet' cows, several favourites, but second year barren, they had to be shipped no matter how much we loved them. If we had a local market for mature beef, our neighbourhood butcher could drop them in the field but most would have to be put on a 9hour truck ride to Toronto. There was just not room in the barn or enough hay to feed animals that couldn't pay their way.
Sandi you don’t have to explain yourself cause your true fans understand why you retired the Golden Girls. It is so cute to see how they follow in a line everywhere they go! But also thank goodness Kensie is okay!! 💗💗💗🐑🐑🐑💗💗💗

I think a live-cam stream of the Golden Girls would be a big hit! Just saying. ;D I know, one more thing to add to your long list of to-dos. I just love the golden girls and the Brocks so much! =D
@@TheKellyGreen I could be totally wrong, but I’m guessing that there might be a way to position the camera angle in a way that nothing personal is shown in the live stream. But, like I said, I could be completely wrong.
After hearing the whole story about your little big pup, I am honestly beginning to think that my son must be a border collie. At the age of 1, my son tripped, hurt his foot and got mounds of attention and people coddling him and carrying him everywhere. A week goes by and he was refusing to put weight on his one foot and scream cried (actual tears) each time I did not pick him up. Well, a quick trip to the ER and some x-rays later and the doctor said "There has to be something in his soft tissue because kids this age do not fake this kind of pain." That night I woke up to find my son climbing from his bed and walking across the floor toward my bed. As soon as I sat up, he froze and then fell onto the carpet holding his left foot. I told him "Wrong foot" and he starts crying holding his right foot. Don't sweat it, because apparently human doctors can get it wrong, too.
Kindness is always a good thing. Yes these older girls are special and blessed. We know it's not a normal business response but hey it's your life your sheep and you can do what you want. They have given you all there baby years and I believe these special girls could enjoy senior retirement and besides your the one paying the cost. God bless!
I find their “follow the leader” hysterical. Do they do it in the barn? Follow friends? Sandi, have you tried fog nets for water in spring or summer? Just curious. I think you’re getting some stress relief from having the golden girls around. Poor Kinsey, I bet she was helped by pain relief. Thanks for posting this, I love watching you and Mark doing the field work and the sheep.
@@kellwood1404 They certainly follow Billy's momma...she needs a nice name...like "Bling" the Ewe since she puts so much white bling on her lambs....The golden Girls sure look like they are a little unsure of their new digs still. They'll get it. Poor Kinsey....sounds like she over did it..Or it could be something like Lymes Disease which can very much cause intermittent lameness, excessive thirst and bladder control issues. .Love the field work. Learning so much!
@@kellwood1404 yes I have seen a few of them follow their 'friends ' around and remember Sandi pointing out a few besties. I think its so cute how they all follow Billys Mom..bearing in mind both Big Momma and Large Margie were quite confident characters in the barn.. it might be the sky..because when the barn roof blew off a few yrs ago they all gathered at the end where the roof was still on..
I don’t care what anyone says. Sometimes you form such great attachments to animals that you just can’t get rid of them. Those who fault you for that are wrong. For one it’s not their business, and two they are yours and you decide. I hope to see you keep a few more favorites in the future. It’s actually part of your “business” because they are UA-cam stars. ❤️ “EweTube Stars.”
“UA-cam Stars!” What an eye opening comment! We do forget that it’s not just that these girls popped out adorable lambs. Each one has a separate personality that we, alongside Sandi, have grown to love. Calling them “UA-cam Stars” is a perfect way to point out their contributions to the infamous business plan, yes, but also to our understanding and appreciation of the animals themselves. Thank you for reminding us all that these girls are legends in their own right and that UA-cam would be a far lesser place without them!! Maybe the “UA-cam Stars” deserve their own bit of available merch? Just a thought!
@@floofypurplefluff9924 I agree. They are adorable and they deserve everything. I love watching these “ EueTube Stars” every video vlog. I think Merch would be awesome. Hmm I invented new merch lol
It's so easy for people to sit behind a computer screen and judge saying, "You should do this," or "You should do that." If keeping a few of your absolute favorite ewes in a retirement pasture brings you a bright spot in your day, then do what makes you happy. You light up when you go see your golden girls and life is too short to give that up. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
You should make “Golden Ewe” hoodies with their faces. Would be ADORABLE You’re absolutely the best I never knew I would love watching sheep so much until I found your channel 😀
I think making a t shirt or hoodie for the golden girls would be a great way to raise $ for there feed or give raised money to assist a older lady who could use it. You must know someone who could use a few extra bucks
My cavalier, with a brain the size of a walnut, pretends to go potty by assuming the position, waiting a few seconds, and then comes to me for a "good boy" cookie. Yes, dogs are smart enough to train their humans to do anything!😂
Cavaliers are sooooooo smart. But SO sensitive also. We had one that would come in for chemo. She was always a great patient. Have some adorable pics for owners (at our clinic we had to sit and hold the pup during chemo because of the IV blew. It is really bad. Idk of all clinics do). But as soon as mom would get there she would hoooowwwl the most dramatic conversation to mom. I 100% believe she thought she was taling human. LoL.
Hi Sandi, experienced dog trainer here. Dogs generally don't fake it, an particularly go through the ruse that we humans do to fake illness to get attention. She didn't feel well, for some reason, who the heck knows, maybe she got on your treadmill (lol). So glad she is better.
It might have been something like food poisoning like from eating/drinking something that didn't agree with her tummy or she went and party to hard well you were sleeping.
Our old dog couldn't get up one morning, not even for food, he couldn't control his legs right or anything, so we carried him to the car and brought him to the vet. He jumped out of the car when we got there🤦♀️ and then lived for another 6 years. Old man made it to 17 1/2
I wouldn't call it faking. But dogs can be very "vindictive" if they feel slighted somehow. They go "off" in their own way . Vindictive might not be the right word but they do have reactions to our behaviour towards them and they have ways to get attention.
I would worry about lymes disease or some other tick borne illness with the intermittent lameness, excessive thirst and bladder control issues. A little bloodwork might be a good idea to just make sure there isn't an underlying cause.
Sandi don't apologize for your retirement ladies bc you can't please other people (naysayers & PPats) all the time & MUST DO what makes you happy 😊 I personally think you have a very loving heart & these ladies have in special place in it. Love you 😍 for being you 💖💞💖
I had two whether sheep in my backyard. When it was hot they came inside to lay on the ceramic tile floors. They never had an accident inside and stood by the door when they needed out. They liked to watch tv .
I'm sure a lot of people would like the Golden Girls as merch and it would be a great way to remember them by when years go by and they can't be with you anymore.
Never underestimate the intelligence of a border Collie! I swear, they are the Mensa geniuses of all canines. Kinsey maybe just needed to make sure she's still your girl. 😁
Growing up all our cats were barn cats. Well one got a broken leg. So we took care of it and brought him in while he healed. He had a limp for years. Till my brother cought him walking fine. Blasted cat knew the more he limped the more we would cuddle him and give him tuna.
Why not keep something that makes you happy? 🥰 Your retirement village is exactly why viewers love you. You are a sheep farmer who truly loves her flock and wants nothing but the best for them. I think it is a wonderful idea.
Sandi, your farm…your barn…your rules. It’s that simple. Kind suggestions, done respectfully, are welcomed…but ppl that just judge, can keep that to themselves. I’m glad Kensi is doing better. It looked like she may have somehow “ tweaked” her back or hips. With a pain shot, it helped her return to normal. I’m vet tech and I have a border collie/Sheltie. He’s so smart it’s scary. 💗🤗🐑💗
We understand that it's not "normal" to keep ewes into their retirement, but you had the space, you're not keeping every random ewe, and it's for your peace of mind and spirit. It'll be nice to see these special animals relax and enjoy a sweet retirement. There may be others later on, but for now, the Fab Four are great!
Everyone of these top comments are great! SANDI, YOU ARE AMAZING! I love dog's they are amazing! I have always said however, that they are needy! I guess a girl can only take so much, before she has to put on herself a show. 🥰 she got the day off, some TLC and her moment to shine in this video. Kensie has always been a favorite to me. She is always willing to be by your side doing her job..even if her helpfulness is not helpful.😉 Kensie could not do all the work she does if her brain wasn't working on an advanced level. I am so happy she is okay! I was worried she hadn't timed her machine's right and had an accident...she is always dodging and weaving them. I am glad that was not the issue. I am happy that you are you, and did have her checked out by the vet.
Dogs can be very sensitive. My red heeler is extremely smart and gets dramatic. He sulks , cries and when he got stung by a yellow jacket , he followed me around limping until I doted over him and his boo boo . Then he was fine . Love the golden girls !
Sandy, you do whatever makes you happy! Don't worry about what others think! Love you videos and your sincere love of animals. Can't wait till those retired ladies see snow for the first time...LOL
Irene, I was thinking the same thing! It’s Sandy’s life, her vlog. There are no rules that she has to oblige to others restriction. It’s your content Sandy do what makes you happy like Irene said, and I agree!
I know right!? It's 4 sheep. It's not like she's having a retirement home for 100 sheep. Your just not human if a few of these sheep didn't become special to u. 🐑🐑🧍🐑
I’m in your camp, whatever works for you is what you do. Remember- there is no such thing as normal! I’m happy seeing you happy with the retirees. And yes Border Collies are sensitive and smart. I had one that hurt her front paw, and was on meds, which she got in cheese. She continued to limp to the refrigerator til she passed. If you gave her a piece cheese she was always magically better.
I foster dogs (15years) and my latest foster had the exact same symptoms as Kinsey. Turns out he has IVDD (spinal disc disease), and this may not be the case for Kinsey but she may have definitely twinged her back. It is very normal for dogs to display behavioural changes and avoid their humans when they are in pain. And given she is so smart she was probably milking the attention too when she started feeling better 😉
Billy’s Mom and the other ladies all in a line, reminded me of a scene from “Babe” when the little pig asked the ladies very politely to line up and sort themselves.😊
I feel that you’re retired girls is a wonderful idea. From a market breeder point of view, it is not a business model to keep them. However, these mamas have made so many beautiful babies for you guys over they years. They have earned their keep in my opinion. You can’t help but have a few specials that touch your heart over the years. What a wonderful way to Honor them!
We have border collie X's with Aussie shepherd. And yup they can their noses out of joint very easily. They can very naughty, we have counter surfers. If there is anything on the counter top, food wise,they will help themselves. CD ate entire slow cooker of chili. After a $400 trip to the vet. He was banished to the barn for several nights, to off gas his greedy meal. ☠️☠️ Now all crock pots have bungee cords or locking tops. Have great week Brock family 🌾🌾🌻🌻🐑🐑.
It's no one else's business what kind of pets you keep! Not a good business choice? That's ok too, they are your pets now and that's ok they bring a smile. You keep doing you and keep letting your heart lead, because we need that in farming too! Love from the US ❤️
4 out of several hundred is fine! These ladies do have stories, and more than just your family is invested in them. Short of a petting zoo, this is a fine choice.
Sandy, In regard to merch, how about a cartoon picture of a tiny lamb looking at the udder of Marge. The lamb has a gleam in its eyes and in a balloon caption near its ear the thought is yum, lunch! Marge looks back and says, " Don't look at me, kid. I'm retired. "
There are many web cams that show special animals, like a baby giraffe in a zoo. I think we need a 24/7 Golden Girls web cam, so we can watch the ladies when ever we want. Love your videos! I think a pay to view would help pay for your favorite ladies. There are such services all over the world. I would pay to see them frolicking every day.
SANDI - you have NEVER had a single day of having a "cold dark heart". You have a heart as big as all outdoors as far as I can see. If those girls make your heart happy... THEN BE HAPPY. YOU DESERV IT. I admire you and how you do ALL that you do. Stay YOU & please don't let anybody tell you different. God bless you & yours🙏 (That of course, includes your wackadoo dog... you know the one who's too smart for her own good?!?!🤣🤣❤️🤣🤣)
I'm so glad you made a lil haven for your special retirees! It's so funny how they act just like a herd of goats,walking in a single line out in the open. Glad your puppers is alright!
Changing Kinsey’s routine where she was not in the house per her usual schedule can have this effect. Routine is so important to dogs and she may have felt like she was being punished. The Golden Girls are probably thinking “Hay? Where are the flush rations?” 😂
Golden Girls got coulter shock!! They dont know whats going on now. They are not use to grass or being outside. They are probably wondering where their grains and the noisy barn is. Lolol. I love you Sandi. I dont blame you for keeping the girls.
I would love to have a "Golden Sheep" shirt, a real picture on a shirt of our retiree's. It would sell very well would be my guess, the girls have a special place in our hearts too! I mean how could anyone not love those special mommas? Besides being ask questions about the shirt when I would be wearing it, it would be a chance for us watchers to know each other out in public! Even if we didn't have our shirt on, if we saw someone else wearing one we would at least be able to say "Hi!", and I watch Sandy too! I'm glad Kinsey is feeling better, it may have been that she hurt her back, my little guy here hurt his and it took us over a month to get him back in shape! I've had Collies, and one Boarder Collie, they are super smart, but most likely it was a combination of getting put out and maybe she chased something (critter) and maybe twisted her back slightly, which hurt her and the pain meds helped at the right time to make her feel better, between that and the rest she took herself. Either way I'm so glad that she feels better now!!! God Bless and keep safe! Everyone take care out there!
That’s a great idea for merch! I’d love to see a picture of the fab 4 in line together all looking at the camera with “The Golden Girls” above the picture. I would buy one in a heartbeat. Sandi would sell a lot of them too. She could do sweatshirts for winter, tees for summer!
I think Kinsey😘🤗❤ just needed some cuddles. The Golden Girls are settling in. Thank you for being generous and keeping these mama's. There going to be one tough mommas club. 🤗😘❤
It's really nice hearing you say that this little corner of your farm brings you joy. For a person who works as hard as you do, you deserve some respite:)
Dogs will shun another dog that has done something unacceptable. When you put her outside and Lucy was inside... Yeah. Kinsey was saying WTH mom?! Also, Border Collies are wicked smart.
Oh my gosh to see Kinsey not moving at one hundred miles an hour is something I thought I’d never see🌺💚🙃 I hope everything is okay🌺💚🙃 Little stinker🌺💚🙃
YOU HAVE ONE OF THE SMARTEST DOGS THERE IS . . IM GLAD THAT KENSIE IS GETTING BETTER SICK OR PLAYING HOOKIE WHO CARES SHE'S LOOKING LIKE HERSELF AGAIN.
These ladies just have a different relationship wsith you than the average ewe.I think its cool that you are letting them stay on the farm.Well done Sandy!
You’ve got a business plan, but you’ve also got great memories with a few. I love seeing them out., but you have to remember, they’ve never seen grass before.
Do as you wish. You know what's best for you and your flock. Old wives tale: rain/snow in six months after a heavy fog. Your adventure with Kinsey. I remember an episode of All Creatures Great and Small (original series) where James was visiting one farm, a Border would leap up and ambush him. He yelled at the dog and the dog hid. He had to apologize to the dog.
I just love that Kinsey dog. What a personality! We used to have a Basset Hound that would fake injuries in order to get more treats and love. What would we do without silly animals in our lives? lol Your retirees seem to be doing well. You have such a big heart.
We had some golden girls. We found that they liked being locked into the barn at night with the door closed (kept the wolves away and I think they felt felt safe knowing they wouldn't get cornered in there) but they preferred pasture during the day. If we left them out past dusk they would become rather disoriented and directionally challenged. It was a good life for a few special ladies.
Border collies are incredibly smart. I was raised with a border collie who herded everything, including us kids. He was very sensitive/in tune with all of us. If we were anxious, upset, happy - he knew. Still one of my favorite breeds
We had a collieXlab growing up. I can't even explain how easily she picked up on emotions in the house. But nothing compared to if she thought she was in trouble. She would mope around, hide, whine, even fake a hurt paw (because she actually hurt a paw pad once and got lots of extra attention). Collies and collie mixes are incredibly smart. It's almost scary lol
the behavior Sunday sounds like a "guilt" behavior. Maybe she feels guilty over the vomiting and peeing? I do feel something real was wrong Saturday, though.
Hi Sandi I have been watching you for a while and love you and family so much ,your farming has opened my eyes about it you are all so hard work ers,and I love sheep ,and your dogs so beautiful .you love each and every one ,I love big mama and Billie ,You have a beautiful sole .Icry when you cry over something .Please don’t stop videos,🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🥰 to all From Daphne in Australian 🇦🇺🇦🇺
I’m glad to see Kensay is okay. And I’m glad to see the retirees are doing well. Please remember we are guests peeking in through your back door. We might suggest some thing but do what your heart tells you to do. Kathy
I think that Kenzie may have just had an injury and felt really bad for a bit, and then the medication worked! It happens… she jumps around in those feeders a lot. I am very glad that she’s feeling better. She is a good girl. Love your retirement pasture I’m sure those sheep are really enjoying that.
I love seeing the ladies in the pasture, many moons ago we has a dog that used to come on the school run, only one morning I left him behind, he created havoc in the house crapped everywhere in protest and sat shivering. I thought he was sick and took him vet. He was on a dirty protest..
Love the golden girls/retired ladies 💞💞🐑🐑💞💞 and as for Kenzie, she could have needed attention but she's may also have had a pinched nerve, our Aussie has one and one minute her is fine and playing and loving life and the next he can barely move and literally screams🤣. What ever is going on, just glad she is feeling better 💞
Thanks for the explanation of the fat issue in the ewe lambs. Your thoughts about saving the butchers having to trim off the fat is interesting. I wonder how many ofter sheep farmers think of that stuff? It costs you $$ to feed those extra waste-pounds of fat, so I guess money can be saved on both sides of the issue. It's interesting to hear about these kinds of things as part of your business. Good luck with the Golden Girls learning to eat grass!
Soapmakers will buy the sheep tallow to make amazing soap if sandi markets it that way. Since it wouldnt be for food use it could potentially avoid some restrictions.
I am in awe of your video editing skills Sandi! Seeing 2 of you in the same background together was impressive, but 3 of you in the same unified background is awesome! Your videos always brighten my days and the shots of the larger lamb stampedes guarantee a chuckle but watching the Golden Girls exploring their new habitat is such a joyful kick! Love you Sandi❣️🐑🐑🐑🐑
I love, love, love seeing the retired favs enjoying their newfound freedom! I know you can’t keep many, but I do appreciate you creating a retirement center for the ones who have served faithfully.
It's your farm, your business, your life. You can choose to retire a few sheep that are near and dear to you if you want to. We are here to learn and enjoy your videos. We should not be here to tell you how to live the private side of your life, especially the pet side which now include four ewes you love. Please keep showing how they are doing if you don't mind. I love watching you! From a faithful, but usually quiet viewer from Kansas, USA. Thanks for all you do!
I adopted two lambs and two goats from a friend whose daughter raised and showed them for 4-H. They had never been outside of a barn. Took them several days to venture out into the wide, wide world.
Sandi you are amazing your golden girls will start to eat grass soon it's a huge change but they will get there and really hunny you don't need to say why you kept the golden girls as your UA-cam family should understand why you kept them they are the stars of the sheep world love them to bits I am the same with my girls my sheep Lucy, bung eye , Mary Lou Lou, and Georgey male are my favorite always be on the farm till they die so don't worry to much what anyone else say love ya hun xxxx
So glad Kinsey is ok. Who knows what happened to her. I'm glad the retired sheep are slowly figuring things out. I'm sure once it cools down they'll enjoy their pasture of grass. Stay blessed Sandi!!! Love you guys!!! ❤🤗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
No question, but praise I do have. You are the shit ( in a good way) for taking care of all of your animals the way you do. I just love the videos. And I'm looking forward to Golden Girls Merch with the 4 ladies. Plz & thx in advance. P.s. I grew up with sheperd/collie mix when I tell you he was the smartest dog ever. Rip King !
Thanks for another enjoyable video. Glad your pup is ok. Lots of the "smart" breeds can pull stunts like that. As far as the retirees, you do what your heart and mind say. Even the most hardened rancher will have a soft spot for one or more of their animals and not follow the regular procedure when it comes time for retirement.
Miss Sandi, please don't ever stop sharing with those of us who love you and your animals, and your family, BECAUSE NEGATIVE KNOW IT ALL PEOPLE. I believe it is awesome and thoughtful that you don't have em all out in different kinds of weather. You treat your animals with love and kindness, respect and care. ALOT of folks Commenting that seem to "know it all", please ignore them.. you can tell your home, your farm, your animals, are loved, and very well taken care of. 😀love you Miss Sandi🐑🐑🐑🐑

There are always special critters that find their way into your heart. It happens!
I think it is lovely to have a few sheep doing the lawn. Sometimes it is just nice to do what you can do. No explanations

After hearing the whole story about your little big pup, I am honestly beginning to think that my son must be a border collie.
At the age of 1, my son tripped, hurt his foot and got mounds of attention and people coddling him and carrying him everywhere. A week goes by and he was refusing to put weight on his one foot and scream cried (actual tears) each time I did not pick him up. Well, a quick trip to the ER and some x-rays later and the doctor said "There has to be something in his soft tissue because kids this age do not fake this kind of pain." That night I woke up to find my son climbing from his bed and walking across the floor toward my bed. As soon as I sat up, he froze and then fell onto the carpet holding his left foot. I told him "Wrong foot" and he starts crying holding his right foot.
Don't sweat it, because apparently human doctors can get it wrong, too.
Toddlers love to put on a good show for Mom to give them love. It's all just a show.
Kindness is always a good thing. Yes these older girls are special and blessed. We know it's not a normal business response but hey it's your life your sheep and you can do what you want. They have given you all there baby years and I believe these special girls could enjoy senior retirement and besides your the one paying the cost. God bless!
Just love how Billy’s mom is the leader and the others follow in a line behind her. You are doing a great job helping them adjust to their new digs.
I find their “follow the leader” hysterical. Do they do it in the barn? Follow friends?
Sandi, have you tried fog nets for water in spring or summer? Just curious. I think you’re getting some stress relief from having the golden girls around. Poor Kinsey, I bet she was helped by pain relief. Thanks for posting this, I love watching you and Mark doing the field work and the sheep.
@@kellwood1404 They certainly follow Billy's momma...she needs a nice name...like "Bling" the Ewe since she puts so much white bling on her lambs....The golden Girls sure look like they are a little unsure of their new digs still. They'll get it. Poor Kinsey....sounds like she over did it..Or it could be something like Lymes Disease which can very much cause intermittent lameness, excessive thirst and bladder control issues. .Love the field work. Learning so much!
Check for ticks
@@kellwood1404 yes I have seen a few of them follow their 'friends ' around and remember Sandi pointing out a few besties. I think its so cute how they all follow Billys Mom..bearing in mind both Big Momma and Large Margie were quite confident characters in the barn.. it might be the sky..because when the barn roof blew off a few yrs ago they all gathered at the end where the roof was still on..
You know you have an awesome employee when you have to live up to their standards.
I don’t care what anyone says. Sometimes you form such great attachments to animals that you just can’t get rid of them. Those who fault you for that are wrong. For one it’s not their business, and two they are yours and you decide. I hope to see you keep a few more favorites in the future. It’s actually part of your “business” because they are UA-cam stars. ❤️ “EweTube Stars.”
“UA-cam Stars!” What an eye opening comment! We do forget that it’s not just that these girls popped out adorable lambs. Each one has a separate personality that we, alongside Sandi, have grown to love. Calling them “UA-cam Stars” is a perfect way to point out their contributions to the infamous business plan, yes, but also to our understanding and appreciation of the animals themselves. Thank you for reminding us all that these girls are legends in their own right and that UA-cam would be a far lesser place without them!!
Maybe the “UA-cam Stars” deserve their own bit of available merch? Just a thought!
@@floofypurplefluff9924 I agree. They are adorable and they deserve everything. I love watching these “ EueTube Stars” every video vlog. I think Merch would be awesome. Hmm I invented new merch lol
I agree. They are UA-cam STARS.
T-shirts and tote bags with the four ladies on them, titled "EweTube Stars"
@@lhorne4808 YESSS!! That would be Awesome!!! 🐑❤️🙏🏻❤️🐑
It's so easy for people to sit behind a computer screen and judge saying, "You should do this," or "You should do that." If keeping a few of your absolute favorite ewes in a retirement pasture brings you a bright spot in your day, then do what makes you happy. You light up when you go see your golden girls and life is too short to give that up. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
You should make “Golden Ewe” hoodies with their faces. Would be ADORABLE
You’re absolutely the best I never knew I would love watching sheep so much until I found your channel 😀
I think making a t shirt or hoodie for the golden girls would be a great way to raise $ for there feed or give raised money to assist a older lady who could use it. You must know someone who could use a few extra bucks
Love your 4 baby's your keeping just because. So precious 💖
My cavalier, with a brain the size of a walnut, pretends to go potty by assuming the position, waiting a few seconds, and then comes to me for a "good boy" cookie. Yes, dogs are smart enough to train their humans to do anything!😂
Cavaliers are sooooooo smart. But SO sensitive also. We had one that would come in for chemo. She was always a great patient. Have some adorable pics for owners (at our clinic we had to sit and hold the pup during chemo because of the IV blew. It is really bad. Idk of all clinics do).
But as soon as mom would get there she would hoooowwwl the most dramatic conversation to mom. I 100% believe she thought she was taling human. LoL.
The black sheep is the leader! How cute!
Hi Sandi, experienced dog trainer here. Dogs generally don't fake it, an particularly go through the ruse that we humans do to fake illness to get attention. She didn't feel well, for some reason, who the heck knows, maybe she got on your treadmill (lol). So glad she is better.
It might have been something like food poisoning like from eating/drinking something that didn't agree with her tummy or she went and party to hard well you were sleeping.
Our old dog couldn't get up one morning, not even for food, he couldn't control his legs right or anything, so we carried him to the car and brought him to the vet. He jumped out of the car when we got there🤦♀️ and then lived for another 6 years. Old man made it to 17 1/2
I wouldn't call it faking. But dogs can be very "vindictive" if they feel slighted somehow. They go "off" in their own way . Vindictive might not be the right word but they do have reactions to our behaviour towards them and they have ways to get attention.
I would worry about lymes disease or some other tick borne illness with the intermittent lameness, excessive thirst and bladder control issues. A little bloodwork might be a good idea to just make sure there isn't an underlying cause.
I disagree. I'm very sure some dogs do fake things. Mine is a prime example. When he doesn't get his way... Man he could win an Oscar
I just love the granny group. To have a little sun and a large area. You are extra special.
Sandi don't apologize for your retirement ladies bc you can't please other people (naysayers & PPats) all the time & MUST DO what makes you happy 😊 I personally think you have a very loving heart & these ladies have in special place in it. Love you 😍 for being you 💖💞💖
Best project ever! Knowing this is a business. These girls are still part of the business. They are your youtube stars. Your barn/pasture celebs. lol
I had two whether sheep in my backyard. When it was hot they came inside to lay on the ceramic tile floors. They never had an accident inside and stood by the door when they needed out. They liked to watch tv .
😀
🤣
I'm sure a lot of people would like the Golden Girls as merch and it would be a great way to remember them by when years go by and they can't be with you anymore.
I absolutely love how the 4 golden girls walk in a straight line with Billy's Mom in the lead.
Never underestimate the intelligence of a border Collie! I swear, they are the Mensa geniuses of all canines. Kinsey maybe just needed to make sure she's still your girl. 😁
Growing up all our cats were barn cats. Well one got a broken leg. So we took care of it and brought him in while he healed. He had a limp for years. Till my brother cought him walking fine. Blasted cat knew the more he limped the more we would cuddle him and give him tuna.
We all have those little extras in our lives...we all need those little extras in our lives.
Why not keep something that makes you happy? 🥰 Your retirement village is exactly why viewers love you. You are a sheep farmer who truly loves her flock and wants nothing but the best for them. I think it is a wonderful idea.
Sandi, your farm…your barn…your rules. It’s that simple. Kind suggestions, done respectfully, are welcomed…but ppl that just judge, can keep that to themselves. I’m glad Kensi is doing better. It looked like she may have somehow “ tweaked” her back or hips. With a pain shot, it helped her return to normal. I’m vet tech and I have a border collie/Sheltie. He’s so smart it’s scary. 💗🤗🐑💗
❤
We understand that it's not "normal" to keep ewes into their retirement, but you had the space, you're not keeping every random ewe, and it's for your peace of mind and spirit. It'll be nice to see these special animals relax and enjoy a sweet retirement. There may be others later on, but for now, the Fab Four are great!
Everyone of these top comments are great! SANDI, YOU ARE AMAZING!
I love dog's they are amazing! I have always said however, that they are needy! I guess a girl can only take so much, before she has to put on herself a show. 🥰 she got the day off, some TLC and her moment to shine in this video.
Kensie has always been a favorite to me. She is always willing to be by your side doing her job..even if her helpfulness is not helpful.😉 Kensie could not do all the work she does if her brain wasn't working on an advanced level.
I am so happy she is okay! I was worried she hadn't timed her machine's right and had an accident...she is always dodging and weaving them. I am glad that was not the issue. I am happy that you are you, and did have her checked out by the vet.
Dogs can be very sensitive. My red heeler is extremely smart and gets dramatic. He sulks , cries and when he got stung by a yellow jacket , he followed me around limping until I doted over him and his boo boo . Then he was fine . Love the golden girls !
If it makes you happy, then you do you.☺️. I am a small farmer, and I have animals like that which have become pets. They make me happy
Sandy, you do whatever makes you happy! Don't worry about what others think! Love you videos and your sincere love of animals. Can't wait till those retired ladies see snow for the first time...LOL
Irene, I was thinking the same thing! It’s Sandy’s life, her vlog. There are no rules that she has to oblige to others restriction. It’s your content Sandy do what makes you happy like Irene said, and I agree!
Hello from Irene in Liverpool England 🏴
They know snow. If i recall they got snowed on a few years ago when a huge storm ripped the barns roof off!
I know right!? It's 4 sheep. It's not like she's having a retirement home for 100 sheep. Your just not human if a few of these sheep didn't become special to u. 🐑🐑🧍🐑
@@rebeccaburrow7199 yes and none of them liked it..they were all huddled at the end where the roof was still on !!..
I thought the ‘double sandi’ was my favourite footage, but now I’ve seen the ‘triple sandi’ 🥰
I’m in your camp, whatever works for you is what you do. Remember- there is no such thing as normal! I’m happy seeing you happy with the retirees. And yes Border Collies are sensitive and smart. I had one that hurt her front paw, and was on meds, which she got in cheese. She continued to limp to the refrigerator til she passed. If you gave her a piece cheese she was always magically better.
🤣🤣🤣🧀🧀🧀
You are amazing. I am in "Your" camp. Those are your special girls that have wormed their way into your heart. And you are Allowed ❣️
I foster dogs (15years) and my latest foster had the exact same symptoms as Kinsey. Turns out he has IVDD (spinal disc disease), and this may not be the case for Kinsey but she may have definitely twinged her back. It is very normal for dogs to display behavioural changes and avoid their humans when they are in pain. And given she is so smart she was probably milking the attention too when she started feeling better 😉
Billy’s Mom and the other ladies all in a line, reminded me of a scene from “Babe” when the little pig asked the ladies very politely to line up and sort themselves.😊
I love to Sandi's videos
I think having a small retirement home is just fine. We know it is a business but it can be a business with a heart.
I feel that you’re retired girls is a wonderful idea. From a market breeder point of view, it is not a business model to keep them. However, these mamas have made so many beautiful babies for you guys over they years. They have earned their keep in my opinion. You can’t help but have a few specials that touch your heart over the years. What a wonderful way to Honor them!
I want 4 adorable faces on a retirement village teeshirt!
The Golden Ewes
We have border collie X's with Aussie shepherd. And yup they can their noses out of joint very easily. They can very naughty, we have counter surfers. If there is anything on the counter top, food wise,they will help themselves. CD ate entire slow cooker of chili. After a $400 trip to the vet. He was banished to the barn for several nights, to off gas his greedy meal. ☠️☠️
Now all crock pots have bungee cords or locking tops. Have great week Brock family 🌾🌾🌻🌻🐑🐑.
🤣
I love the Golden Girls! It’s like rewarding excellent employees with a pension plan upon retirement.
Yes!
It's no one else's business what kind of pets you keep! Not a good business choice? That's ok too, they are your pets now and that's ok they bring a smile. You keep doing you and keep letting your heart lead, because we need that in farming too! Love from the US ❤️
4 out of several hundred is fine! These ladies do have stories, and more than just your family is invested in them. Short of a petting zoo, this is a fine choice.
Sandy,
In regard to merch, how about a cartoon picture of a tiny lamb looking at the udder of Marge. The lamb has a gleam in its eyes and in a balloon caption near its ear the thought is yum, lunch! Marge looks back and says, " Don't look at me, kid. I'm retired. "
There are many web cams that show special animals, like a baby giraffe in a zoo. I think we need a 24/7 Golden Girls web cam, so we can watch the ladies when ever we want. Love your videos! I think a pay to view would help pay for your favorite ladies. There are such services all over the world. I would pay to see them frolicking every day.
What a wonderful idea! ❤️🤞🏻
Those are public places and small enclosures. For Sandis safety it’s best she not do that.
That is a wonderful idea, I love it!
Yes, yes, yes! Live cam plz 🙏
@Anna Brown it would help pay for the golden girls, I would pay for that service
We all spoil our pets and yours are no different. So happy Kinsie is okay.
We know how you love these old girls, no justification needed to us. We love them too and love seeing them.
SANDI - you have NEVER had a single day of having a "cold dark heart". You have a heart as big as all outdoors as far as I can see. If those girls make your heart happy... THEN BE HAPPY. YOU DESERV IT. I admire you and how you do ALL that you do. Stay YOU & please don't let anybody tell you different. God bless you & yours🙏 (That of course, includes your wackadoo dog... you know the one who's too smart for her own good?!?!🤣🤣❤️🤣🤣)
I'm so glad you made a lil haven for your special retirees! It's so funny how they act just like a herd of goats,walking in a single line out in the open. Glad your puppers is alright!
Changing Kinsey’s routine where she was not in the house per her usual schedule can have this effect. Routine is so important to dogs and she may have felt like she was being punished. The Golden Girls are probably thinking “Hay? Where are the flush rations?” 😂
I'm so glad you kept the Golden Girls. They are so precious to you! Your farm, your rules!
Golden Girls got coulter shock!!
They dont know whats going on now. They are not use to grass or being outside. They are probably wondering where their grains and the noisy barn is. Lolol. I love you Sandi. I dont blame you for keeping the girls.
The retired ladies are so cute. It’s so interesting to watch them transitioning from inside sheep to outside.
Do you think the dog got too much heat, it has been so hot 🔥.?
I said it before, they will be good for you to stay grounded. Good when they do pass. Be happy for this time.
I would love to have a "Golden Sheep" shirt, a real picture on a shirt of our retiree's. It would sell very well would be my guess, the girls have a special place in our hearts too! I mean how could anyone not love those special mommas? Besides being ask questions about the shirt when I would be wearing it, it would be a chance for us watchers to know each other out in public! Even if we didn't have our shirt on, if we saw someone else wearing one we would at least be able to say "Hi!", and I watch Sandy too!
I'm glad Kinsey is feeling better, it may have been that she hurt her back, my little guy here hurt his and it took us over a month to get him back in shape! I've had Collies, and one Boarder Collie, they are super smart, but most likely it was a combination of getting put out and maybe she chased something (critter) and maybe twisted her back slightly, which hurt her and the pain meds helped at the right time to make her feel better, between that and the rest she took herself.
Either way I'm so glad that she feels better now!!!
God Bless and keep safe! Everyone take care out there!
That’s a great idea for merch! I’d love to see a picture of the fab 4 in line together all looking at the camera with “The Golden Girls” above the picture. I would buy one in a heartbeat. Sandi would sell a lot of them too. She could do sweatshirts for winter, tees for summer!
OMG! The Golden Sheep wears little cat’s eye glasses on a chain and Carrie’s a handbag ❣️🤣😁
I was going to suggest the same thing.
I like the idea of a drawing. ---them strung out in a line or standing side by side.
@@karencross1964 Wouldn’t it be awesome if they could get Big Mama doing her over the shoulder glance! 🤣
You do it your way and everyone else can do it their way. I like watching you
I think Kinsey😘🤗❤ just needed some cuddles. The Golden Girls are settling in. Thank you for being generous and keeping these mama's. There going to be one tough mommas club. 🤗😘❤
I for one truly thank you from the bottom of my heart for s p a r i n g these four
The Golden Girls. What a perfect name for them.
It's really nice hearing you say that this little corner of your farm brings you joy. For a person who works as hard as you do, you deserve some respite:)
Dogs will shun another dog that has done something unacceptable. When you put her outside and Lucy was inside... Yeah. Kinsey was saying WTH mom?! Also, Border Collies are wicked smart.
Kinsey is running the place!!!!!!
Her thinking you were mad doesnt account for the throwing up. The pain killers may have helped whatever was making her unwell.
Not sure what I like more: Billy's mom's little stomp, that she is the leader, or that they all follow single file.
Oh my gosh to see Kinsey not moving at one hundred miles an hour is something I thought I’d never see🌺💚🙃 I hope everything is okay🌺💚🙃 Little stinker🌺💚🙃
I adore the lambpedes when the ewes are eating. It is like…Mom’s not watching …yay we got space!!!
Especially when they’re tiny.
I love how they walk single file behind their leader!
YOU HAVE ONE OF THE SMARTEST DOGS THERE IS .
. IM GLAD THAT KENSIE IS GETTING BETTER SICK OR PLAYING HOOKIE WHO CARES SHE'S LOOKING LIKE HERSELF AGAIN.
These ladies just have a different relationship wsith you than the average ewe.I think its cool that you are letting them stay on the farm.Well done Sandy!
You’ve got a business plan, but you’ve also got great memories with a few. I love seeing them out., but you have to remember, they’ve never seen grass before.
Do as you wish. You know what's best for you and your flock. Old wives tale: rain/snow in six months after a heavy fog. Your adventure with Kinsey. I remember an episode of All Creatures Great and Small (original series) where James was visiting one farm, a Border would leap up and ambush him. He yelled at the dog and the dog hid. He had to apologize to the dog.
Sandy I love that you retired the golden girls to pasture. ❤️❤️
I just love that Kinsey dog. What a personality! We used to have a Basset Hound that would fake injuries in order to get more treats and love. What would we do without silly animals in our lives? lol Your retirees seem to be doing well. You have such a big heart.
We had some golden girls. We found that they liked being locked into the barn at night with the door closed (kept the wolves away and I think they felt felt safe knowing they wouldn't get cornered in there) but they preferred pasture during the day. If we left them out past dusk they would become rather disoriented and directionally challenged. It was a good life for a few special ladies.
My daughter has recently started watching your videos with me. She has pronounced this video « cool » 😎
Border collies are incredibly smart. I was raised with a border collie who herded everything, including us kids. He was very sensitive/in tune with all of us. If we were anxious, upset, happy - he knew. Still one of my favorite breeds
We had a collieXlab growing up. I can't even explain how easily she picked up on emotions in the house. But nothing compared to if she thought she was in trouble. She would mope around, hide, whine, even fake a hurt paw (because she actually hurt a paw pad once and got lots of extra attention). Collies and collie mixes are incredibly smart. It's almost scary lol
the behavior Sunday sounds like a "guilt" behavior.
Maybe she feels guilty over the vomiting and peeing? I do feel something real was wrong Saturday, though.
Hi Sandi I have been watching you for a while and love you and family so much ,your farming has opened my eyes about it you are all so hard work ers,and I love sheep ,and your dogs so beautiful .you love each and every one ,I love big mama and Billie ,You have a beautiful sole .Icry when you cry over something .Please don’t stop videos,🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🥰 to all From Daphne in Australian 🇦🇺🇦🇺
I’m glad to see Kensay is okay. And I’m glad to see the retirees are doing well. Please remember we are guests peeking in through your back door. We might suggest some thing but do what your heart tells you to do. Kathy
I love your retirement village, it’s your farm and your sheep, Sandi just keep being you ❤️❤️❤️❤️🐑
It's your farm and your sheep. You do what you want to. You bring so much joy with your channel.
I think that Kenzie may have just had an injury and felt really bad for a bit, and then the medication worked! It happens… she jumps around in those feeders a lot. I am very glad that she’s feeling better. She is a good girl. Love your retirement pasture I’m sure those sheep are really enjoying that.
I love seeing the ladies in the pasture, many moons ago we has a dog that used to come on the school run, only one morning I left him behind, he created havoc in the house crapped everywhere in protest and sat shivering. I thought he was sick and took him vet. He was on a dirty protest..
Love the golden girls/retired ladies 💞💞🐑🐑💞💞 and as for Kenzie, she could have needed attention but she's may also have had a pinched nerve, our Aussie has one and one minute her is fine and playing and loving life and the next he can barely move and literally screams🤣. What ever is going on, just glad she is feeling better 💞
Thanks for the explanation of the fat issue in the ewe lambs. Your thoughts about saving the butchers having to trim off the fat is interesting. I wonder how many ofter sheep farmers think of that stuff? It costs you $$ to feed those extra waste-pounds of fat, so I guess money can be saved on both sides of the issue. It's interesting to hear about these kinds of things as part of your business. Good luck with the Golden Girls learning to eat grass!
Soapmakers will buy the sheep tallow to make amazing soap if sandi markets it that way. Since it wouldnt be for food use it could potentially avoid some restrictions.
I am in awe of your video editing skills Sandi! Seeing 2 of you in the same background together was impressive, but 3 of you in the same unified background is awesome! Your videos always brighten my days and the shots of the larger lamb stampedes guarantee a chuckle but watching the Golden Girls exploring their new habitat is such a joyful kick! Love you Sandi❣️🐑🐑🐑🐑
The Ewe Train chugging through the field. Love how they stay in a pack.
The ladies have the conga line down pat. 🤣😂🤣
I love, love, love seeing the retired favs enjoying their newfound freedom! I know you can’t keep many, but I do appreciate you creating a retirement center for the ones who have served faithfully.
It's your farm, your business, your life. You can choose to retire a few sheep that are near and dear to you if you want to.
We are here to learn and enjoy your videos. We should not be here to tell you how to live the private side of your life, especially the pet side which now include four ewes you love. Please keep showing how they are doing if you don't mind. I love watching you! From a faithful, but usually quiet viewer from Kansas, USA. Thanks for all you do!
Billy’s mama… too cute, being the leader of the ‘Golden Girls’… sweet ladies 🤍🐑🖤
I adopted two lambs and two goats from a friend whose daughter raised and showed them for 4-H. They had never been outside of a barn. Took them several days to venture out into the wide, wide world.
I’m sure it will take your retirees a while in getting use to their new life style of living outside. What a wonderful retirement life for them.
Three Sandi's what a treat! What a great way to show us just how busy you are. The golden girls are absolutely loved and treasured.
Your farm, your sheep, your heart ❤️. Your choice 😘😘😘😘
Sandi you are amazing your golden girls will start to eat grass soon it's a huge change but they will get there and really hunny you don't need to say why you kept the golden girls as your UA-cam family should understand why you kept them they are the stars of the sheep world love them to bits I am the same with my girls my sheep Lucy, bung eye , Mary Lou Lou, and Georgey male are my favorite always be on the farm till they die so don't worry to much what anyone else say love ya hun xxxx
So glad Kinsey is ok. Who knows what happened to her. I'm glad the retired sheep are slowly figuring things out. I'm sure once it cools down they'll enjoy their pasture of grass. Stay blessed Sandi!!! Love you guys!!! ❤🤗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
No question, but praise I do have. You are the shit ( in a good way) for taking care of all of your animals the way you do. I just love the videos. And I'm looking forward to Golden Girls Merch with the 4 ladies. Plz & thx in advance. P.s. I grew up with sheperd/collie mix when I tell you he was the smartest dog ever. Rip King !
Thanks for another enjoyable video. Glad your pup is ok. Lots of the "smart" breeds can pull stunts like that. As far as the retirees, you do what your heart and mind say. Even the most hardened rancher will have a soft spot for one or more of their animals and not follow the regular procedure when it comes time for retirement.
Miss Sandi, please don't ever stop sharing with those of us who love you and your animals, and your family, BECAUSE NEGATIVE KNOW IT ALL PEOPLE.
I believe it is awesome and thoughtful that you don't have em all out in different kinds of weather. You treat your animals with love and kindness, respect and care. ALOT of folks Commenting that seem to "know it all", please ignore them.. you can tell your home, your farm, your animals, are loved, and very well taken care of. 😀love you Miss Sandi🐑🐑🐑🐑
