Yesterday the children and I picked up two new members to our little homestead family. These two are ones who we hope will be good and faithful guardians, watching over our animal friends while we are not in the barnyard.
Bruce and Jenny
They are part Great Pyrenees and Anatolian Shephard. Both of which are great watch dogs, so we have high hopes for these two cuties.
They have been at home with their mother, father and sister…. all of which are working dogs on a farm with goats, turkeys, geese, ducks, chickens, etc. They should fit in just fine here.
We are all very happy they are here.

I completely forgot to tell you how the kids decided upon the names for the puppies.
My husband and his brother grew up loving Marvel Superhero’s LONG before it was a cool thing. They have passed that love on to my children and *ahem*, me. 🙂
Abram my youngest and a die-hard HULK fan, just like his Uncle Mar was bound and determined that the boy dog should be properly named HULK! I mean why not? These are going to be BIG dogs. They are going to be protectors. HULK is a pretty good idea. The other three liked it, but were not crazy about calling him Hulk. So, we talked and realized Hulk has a real name too. Bruce.
Bruce also has a cousin, the lesser known She-HULK.
She-Hulk’s real name is Jennifer, to which we shortened into Jenny.
So with the collective minds of all of us… Bruce and Jenny were named.
