With all the uncertainty and all we've been through since Covid, think about how many times you sought refuge in the barn. Please donate and share to help save Squirrelwood and keep the herd together.

How can you say no to these faces?

Mango the black and white Juliana piglet looks sweetly up at the camera while standing in her straw and hay strewn stall with wood-lined walls.

They all love visitors but especially when Beth comes to see them, dashing over for boops and love is the best 😊

Quoted post - video description for inclusivity: A wide view of a paddock next to a white and blue barn surrounded by split-rail fences. Several sheep and goats running towards the fence being silly and adorable. Several jump up to boops a greeting under a bright sun.

Musings from the Barn🐑🐐

No matter how busy your weekend, some bouncing sheep and floppy ears is exactly what you need to take a quick break and enjoy a smile. Happy Thanksgiving to all our friends to the north and while times are complicated, there is still so much to be grateful for in the world💚

Quoted post - video description for inclusivity: Crouton the handsome cream/brown steer happily chomps some hay while standing behind the metal gate to his wood-lines stall. Lots of hay lay strewn around his hooves for easy reach and nibble.

Although this mess seems the work of the Barn Poltergeist👻 and spooky season is upon us, we know Crouton made this mess on purpose. Sometimes you just need to spread out your dinner "moo-style" so you can best decide how to attack the pile of goodies and Crout has his method💚

Quoted post - video description for inclusivity: Nickel, the black and white steer, standing behind the gate of his wood-lined stall. A hand with a small biscuit in frame and he reaches for it, give a little sniff, opens his mouth a little and his tongue almost peeks out as he turns away. So picky.

Nickel is not just a master of side-eye but also the fake out. Sure, it seemed like he was going to take a biscuit. He opened his sizeable mouth and even engaged that huge tongue only to snorty laugh at your gullibility. There's nothing like a steer with perfect comic timing😁

The most picky steer

Quoted post - video description for inclusivity: The barn aisle and a very small Crouton, the cream and brown calf, wearing a multicolored coat covered in cartoon cow print walks around in front of a straw bale mooing loudly. His tiny little hooves clatter on the floor while he explores his voice. 💚

From the Archives™️ tiny tippy taps and strident moos are always a good escape while the week works itself to a close. The full moon week always seems a little extra stressful so enjoy some smol Crouton and just take a little break from the now💚

Quoted post - video description for inclusivity: A snowy drive between a couple paddocks ringed by fences. Snow falls while two Boxers join a mini horse as he jogs down and past the camera wearing a blue horse coat. A fancy thoroughbred, also in a coat, runs to the fence to accompany his friend.

Unlikely friendships are just part of being herd, whether the fanciest of racehorse or a gangly Boxer, dear Pon Pon set the best example. Wednesdays with Wiggles™️ reminder that even with a stumble you can keep dancing forward with a herd to encourage you and keep you company💚

She has some very strong opinions about her needs and has no shame using her large frame and hooves to make her point 😁

Quoted post - video description for inclusivity: Pesto the blonde Belgian horse looms over the entrance to the feed room demanding her share of minty horse muffins from her human. She carefully chews each offering, her mouth and big tongue dancing for joy for the tasty nibbles. 💚
