Arnbeg Farmstay Scotland

Taking the leap of faith 👌 The secret? Rattle a crisp packet and Toots will push her way through and bring the rest with her 😂 Love my sheep 🥰 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #petsheep #sheep #sheeplove

Yesterday it was the turn of Toots and Co to go through the footbath… this was the start 😂 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #sheep

In your own time Wallace 🙄😂 Happy #coosday #arnbegfarmstayscotland #highlandcow #Wallace

Made the most of yesterday’s dry day with a wee sit down with my loves ❤️ Sadly not this morning as torrential rain 🙄 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #sheep #MondayMotivaton

If she was a bit quieter, she wouldn’t alert the rest of the floofs what was on offer 🙄😂 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #toots #petsheep

Under 10 minutes to get them all through the footbath No bribes, or dogs Who had faith in me? 😂 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #sheep #patienceisavirtue #animalhealth #footbath #petsheep

By tomorrow I’ll have them all running through in 10 minutes 🙏😂 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #sheep #footbath

As it’s been so wet, there’s more scald in the flock (toe bacteria) making them lame Putting them through a few footbaths before they eventually return to their field at the end of this week It’s a slow process but bribery does help 😂 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #sheep

7am: Moved back to the field with best shelter… it’s going to be a long winter 😞 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #sheep #scottishweather

Back in after 14 hours grazing… heavy rain forecast overnight Yup… my sheep, my rules #pamperedpets #arnbegfarmstayscotland #sheep

Ok… let’s just repeat: Wallace does not need his horns trimmed Have you ever poked your eye out with your elbow? Same applies to Wallace 🙄 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #highlandcow #iknowhowtolookafterthem #petcow

Ed loves to live dangerously 🙄 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #petsheep #sheep #farmstay #blackcat #caturday #blacksheep

Toots: is this my starter? #arnbegfarmstayscotland #petsheep #toots

At long last… a wee bit of alfresco dining today Back in tonight before the next expected round of torrential rain 🙄🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #petsheep #scottishweather

Just want to say thank you to everyone who commented yesterday about my beautiful Ruby… although bawling again 😭 But here’s my wee spirit lifter we can all get a smile from 🥰 Toots the starving sheep 🙄 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #toots #petsheep

Dogs overfill our hearts with love Saying goodbye is the hardest thing to do after 14 years together 💔 Ruby was the first dog I got to name myself… I didn’t inherit her, or save her… I got to choose her with Michael ❤️ Never enough time 💔 Run pain free my beautiful Ruby ❤️ #rip #arnbegfarmstayscotland

Let the hugging commence ❤️ #arnbegfarmstayscotland #petsheep #pamperedpets

As the weather is so crap (more than normal 🙄🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿) the naked floofs are being brought into the barn at night until they have a bit more fleece growth Until then, I get to hug them all… whether they want it or not 😂 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #sheep #pamperedpets

Brought the floofs in last night as they’re getting their 2nd shear of the year today Lame ones will get a wee pedicure whilst they’re in 👌 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #valaisblacknose #sheep #shearingtime

Toots at her happiest… me too, watching her 🥰 #arnbegfarmstayscotland #toots #petsheep #ryelandsheep #oldlady
