    Daniel at Arms Family Homestead also said, his farm won’t be same without Bella. They just had to put her down too. I bet those two are over the Rainbow Bridge playing.

    Smokey is watching, these are all her friends that she guarded and loved being around! She'll be so happy to see them being loved so much as always just as she was and is. I picture Smokey doing her zoomies in heaven, running free, happy and pain free! God bless you all!

      Smokey was clearly loved by you, your family and the animals, as well as many many people you'll never meet. God brought her home, but she is still watching the farm in peace without pain. She will make her presence known and you will know she's near.

    I also noticed when you made the video about Smokey's passing that the animals were all quiet. They were paying their respects to her and you as well. Even though I had read the title I was hoping I had read it wrong but the silence of the animals told me it was true before you even got to the announcement. I have so much love for your whole family. Two and four legged as well.

    I understand how they feel, I'm sure ya'll along with all of us feel the same way. Smokey was such a huge part of the farm and the goats were raised with her. So it's only natural to hurt over her loss,that pain means she was truly loved by so many! She will never be forgotten ♥ In time the animals will find their new normal and we all will find strength to move forward on your blessed journey! Love and blessings..

The amazing thing is that our memories never go away, they are always with us. You have an amazing channel and I love that you share your real life with all of us. Makes us all a little bit like extended family. Give yourself some grace and time to heal. You deserve it.

I always loved watching her when Chad as on the farm and she was there, loving him, Adler and anyone or everything that was on the farm. Except maybe the chickens. Her crazy zombies! I’m so sorry that your pal is not there to greet you everyday. God Bless you for taking such great care of her.. loving her until the very end. She loved you and Grandma so much. ❤️🐾🙏💔

    You also took me back in time to my own mom, and how she used to burn all of the winter tree limbs and branches from our yard, in her garden area. Then she would rake the ashes all over her garden, telling us kids that it would help everything grow. I feel blessed to be able to be a part of this channel and a part of of yours and grandma's family. ❤

Yes l was one of those people who cried and l'm not ashamed to say that l did.

Coming home to Grandma and Grandpa’s home made an important quality of life for Smokey in that she was with her friends again, and meeting Miss Kitty was a sweet end of life friend to have with her! I miss her too but being relieved from her struggles of her own choosing, was a Blessing, painful as it was to all of us who loved her. She was always well cared for and that’s about LOVE!

    I hope that the breeder of Smoky has been notified about her. They should check their breeding stock and make sure it's not a genetic marker that's carried by their dogs. Smoky was too young to be that sick.
    Once again, I am so sorry for your loss.

    Grandpa, when I first started 3:44 watching your channel almost a year ago, I was watching you singing and dancing for your chickens. And I thought.....this man is crazy. Now after completing the year, I now know you are! Wanted you to know I like crazy because I know how crazy works! I'm crazy! Crazy makes me laugh and that's always good. Thank you!!

    I agree that Grandpa Alder Farms is truly a family that includes all of us and it is a comfort to know we all feel the sadness for losing Smokey. Smokey was loved and she brought us joy. Please know I'm praying for us as a family and we can find comfort in that Smokey was loved by many.

    Pain shared is halved. I thank you for your kindness, reflecting how some of your followers/adler farms family felt the loss of Smokey. I started watching Chad's channel around the time he had just settled into the farm at your place, still had rabbits & ducks. Smokey was a baby. She was a precious dog and thank you all for sharing her with us. GB.

    Smoky was an amazing beautiful girl she stole the hearts of all that watched. We fell in love with her. She’s at peace and doing her happy zommies. The best is we know we will see her again someday. Hugs to y’all for taking such amazing care of her and giving her the unconditional love. To see that was so beautiful. We love Grandpa and Grandma Adler.

    I have never posted on anyone’s channel before. But the pain of losing your pet is so overwhelming. Smokey was definitely a wonderful dog. I felt I needed to offer my sympathy. You most definitely did all you could do. The decision you made was the correct one. 😢😢😢😢😢

    That was cute grandpa, you talking to the goats saying, "There a place for 2 more people over here to eat."😂😂 Your animals really are family.

    Thought goats would miss her… but commenting at start of video, just wanted to say that mules or donkeys (I forget which) make good livestock guardians. I remember you talking about one but don’t know what came of it. Much love ❤

    Thank you for today’s video we miss Smokey so much like you said. Watching you feed everyone and running down the trail reminded me of her zoomies and missing you sit with her while she ate to make sure she got her meds she sure is missed and loved. I am glad you have kitty cat to be your shadow things like kitty coming into your lives is for a reason like you said. Thank you again Grandma and Grandpa for all you do for your pets and for how you took on the care of Smokey. Take care we are still watching from Maine.

  • @megslittlehouseinthecountry
    @megslittlehouseinthecountry ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I'm pretty sure the animals know that this time Smokey isn't coming back. She gave them a sense of protection and security that is now gone, so the boys are extra alert to any possible threat. This also hit hard with me as I recently in January lost my best boy Dax to cancer. I did post on my community tab, but I have yet to make a video about his last week. It still hurts. Heartfelt hugs and prayers of comfort. 💖🙏💖

    It is wonderful to see that, despite your sadness and mourning, light moments with the other animals can brighten your day. Smokey will be dearly missed, but we can always go back in your videos to see her again. I would like to think that her spirit is still around, watching over you and the goats. I always appreciate a Batman close-up. From what I have seen on camera, he can be a bit of a scamp, but he is such a gentle giant with the other goats. I would probably let the goat boys jump up on me, too, if it meant that I could pet them. I would love to pet Miss Lola, as well, but I would rather not have her jump up on me. 😊

    Smokey was awesome and will be missed. I think God has brought the baby chicks and Miss Kitty to you because of the loss of Smokey. I bet the goats really miss her too. You do a great job with all the animals. I can understand how attached you have gotten to the goats. They are a lot of fun and very comical. I have never heard Batman talk. Does he? Smokey was a special pup.
