- Let me tell you the story of Pablo Barn Cat and Toby the Livestock Guardian Dog. Toby is a Maremma who is as sweet as can be, but his enthusiasm is starting to irritate my barncat. Can these two animals get along?

About Gold Shaw Farm: Gold Shaw Farm is more of a farm-in-progress than an honest-to-goodness farm. Our dream is that someday we are able to transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.
If you guys are curious about Pablo Barn Cat's origin story, be sure to check out this video: th-cam.com/video/B9heMNRGp5c/w-d-xo.html
Apparently, Toby thinks the trade off of smelling Pablo's butt, uninterrupted, is worth the exchange of food. It is well known with cat and dog owners that cats love dog food and dogs love the cat food . . . and dogs are crazed over cat poop, which is a high delicacy in the canine world. Toby is not showing any signs of food aggression over that dry food at all. He would hover over his bowl, get very still, ears might go back, hackle fur goes up, he would snarl, and growl a low growl and he would do it EVERY time that bowl is full and anything came near him hovering over it. He has none of those, which is good. Fresh meat might make him more possessive, so still watch that. But, I think, mostly, he is mistaking cat tail wagging for dog tail wagging ~ totally different meanings! lol I think he would protect Pablo as much as anyone else on that farm, whether Pablo wanted it, or not. Maybe the cats are perturbed that Toby ruins their stealth mouse hunting mode when Toby gallops up to them and crashes into their scene? I love that saw horse moment where Toby was like, 'I'm in your spaaaace'. ha ha I've been around dogs and cats my whole life and I am not seeing anything that concerns me. The cats are free to move away or up and away from Toby, but Pablo chooses to go right into the pen, which indicates confidence in the relationship, despite annoyance at Toby's uncouth bull in a china shop type mannerisms. Toby is almost completely deaf to their subtle indications of wanting space. It's sort of funny. He is like Mr. Magoo to them. They are probably talking together like, 'I know right? I was furiously swishing my tail and it made him happier and jump closer!'
Next time it's time to give all three a bath, use a towel to dry each about halfway, then switch towels around. The cats will smell a bit like Toby, and vice versa.
Would've worked better if done right before they first met, but might make the cats a bit more friendly towards Toby.
you should get another dog so they can keep company preferable a smaller dog
What if they fly away
Judging by Pablo's body language he doesnt seem to be expressing any aggression towards Toby-dog. Based on his previous experience with a dog i dont think Pablo would be scared of Toby-dog. I think they'll become good friends given sometime. Its wellknown that cats dont love being over stimulated, too much licking and petting for example, and Toby-dog is very much still a lil pupper with puppy energy, there's the chance that he's just overstimulating Pablo with constant excited interactions. Also since you mentioned Pablo eating too much you can try getting him one of those food bows that have the ridges, they're designed to have the animal work for their food more thus making them eat slower, might help Lil Barnkitty get more out of his meal.
Give the cats treats when they are with Toby, and also reward Toby when he is calm around the cats.
Good idea.
This. Associate good memories to enhance relationship
Toby is actually doing exactly what you said by himself.
Reinforcement doesn’t work on cats.
Pablo Esco Barn: Everything is mine.
this mans puns are pure gold.
Darcos
Farmer: You can't be in this room.
Kitten: *screams*
"I want inside right MEOW!"
@@GoldShawFarm "I'm sorry, are you saying meow?"
Kitten: But I wuvs u!!
As is standard 😂 idk why animals saying no is the funniest thing to me
Hey, if a cat lets a dog sniff it, without any hissing or scratching, I call that a success. As long as they tolerate each other...they don’t need to be best friends. They are different species, after all. But we can’t help hoping, they will do something cute, like cuddle up together, can we? 😉
I'm with ya. A sniff or nose bump that doesn't end in confrontation or threat postures is a success.
I'm with you on that one. If a girl let's me sniff it, I definitely consider it a success
Yea, Pablo seems super-chill next to Toby. You can easily tell: If a cat is fine with turning its back to a dog, it's a huge sign of trust. Your doggo accepted the cat as higher in the hierarchy. Pablo just isn't all too much into dogs or companions in general it seems. He's obviously a very confident and independent cat.
But he's motivated by food and it almost seems like Toby is sorta trading his food for the companionship. I loved how the cat waited for the dog to sit down before jumping into his den. Dude, your cat is training your dog to behave around him!
But yea, you might want to get another dog. Toby seems to be a little company-starved.

Pablo actually seems to be gentle with Toby (if Pablo really didn’t like Toby... hoo boy! You’d know), so there is hope for a better relationship between them.
I wouldn't worry about Toby and the cats, they always set their own parameters and Toby is way too chilled to be bothered whether Pablo has a little of his food.
The cats don't hate him, they are are just showing him who's boss and ruler of the realm.
This is my impression too.
long. live. the king!
Icon checks out, welcome Aslan!
and to speed it up have the dog on his back feet up, get someone to hold him like that. Get the cat and place it on the dogs chest so that they are eye to eye. hold the cat in place until both animals relax. once relaxed the cat can be let go and then the dog. this will reinforce who is boss..... the cat. if you do this a few times then all will be well with both animals and yes the cat will get first dibs on the food.After a while they may also sleep together. I have done this to several of my dogs and dozens of cats. The dogs are grateful that they are not the boss as they don't like being the leader of the pack and the cats are greatfull for more food !!
@@footplate0 i hate cats, the dogs are the rulers.
The cats both have very good body language in this video. I think they like Toby just fine. Once in a while you'll get a cat with a more affectionate personality that likes to play and cuddle with dogs, but these two are not the type. If they actually didn't like Toby, they would never allow him to be that close. Despite their best efforts to convince us that they don't care, cats are very particular and deliberate about where they spend their time. They choose to be near Toby because they like him. Their ears are forward, meaning they're interested and unconcerned. They are ready to communicate if he gets too close for comfort, but Toby is also listening to them very well. I also don't think anyone's at risk of hurting each other seriously. As long as the cats are physically able to get out of reach of Toby when they want to, they're not going to lash out beyond warning hisses and swipes.
Molly Cook didn't you think that at one instance, Pablo was pawing sorta playful at Toby? At around 8:50?
@@ulalaFrugilega Our cats used to do that too, and at first we thought they were angry but whenever we called the dog away they would just follow so they could go on.
@@ulalaFrugilega Yes! That looks like they're both teasing each other to me. Everyone is happy.
Yeah nothing about the behavior I saw is alarming. I think Pablo and Toby are actually already pretty good friends already even if it doesn't look that way.
You've got yourself one amazing dog. As, I watched your video and say what your dog was doing to befriend your cat, I was amazed, I know dogs are very intelligent but I think your dog's a kind-hearted genius. I think he'll win your cat over.
Think about it this way: Cats are derived from the North African/Near Eastern wildcat (now Felis lybica in the new feline taxonomy). They are mesopredators, meaning they are mid-level in the food chain. They have a lot to fear in the wild. Dogs are derived from wolves, which are near the top of the food chain. They have little to fear, and they do ruthless eradicate the competition, including any wildcats (European, Asian, or Middle Eastern) that they find. Their reaction to a dog they didn't grow up with is totally acceptable. Many people think it's the cat showing dominance. It's the really the cat dealing with fear. Cats really do have a lot to fear from things like dogs. Now, Toby is a smart dog. Toby is allowing the cat to eat his food, and the cat is learning not to fear him. I don't think cats know anything about dog pack structure. Humans can figure it out because it's very similar to how we live, and even though the vast majority of people never seem to understand how to apply the princples, the concept makes a lot of sense. Cat society is a lot more fluid than dog society. Toby really wants to be friends with Pablo. You have a really socially smart dog.
I agree.
cats do actually have group structures surprisingly enough, but they tend to go more in the dorm/floor mates direction then a family unit(i.e. what a wolf/dog pack normally is) unless the cat grouping in question is literally a family
and i seriously hope no one says anything about that a/b/o thing, that whole thing is a load of bs made of one study of a bunch of unrelated/unaquainted wolfs shoved into too small an area and has long since been discredited as a poorly done experiment
@J Paterson Have you heard of David Mech? He is a biologist researcher who has been studying wolves in Minnesota for quite some time. He has lately stated that the alpha/omega organization we have always surmised to be the norm for wolf packs is not really true. Wolf packs are primarily families, not military organizations with specific roles. A dog trainer was writing about these findings and says changing the concept of A-Z order will change how we train dogs from now on. That being said, I don't think Toby is an omega. He is just a maremma who is gentle and accepting with "his" animals/people but, I hope, is a big scary protector to invaders. Still, maremmas, according to what I've read, prefer to warn invaders away over attacking them. Kangals, on the other hand, another LGD, chase their prey down and destroy it. I watched a video of two of these big guardian dogs gently clowning around with their owner's toddlers (Omega behavior) the day after they'd torn a coyote to pieces (Alpha behavior).
J Paterson alpha/beta/omega pack structure is basically a myth...pack structure is much more fluid and not quite as permanent as people used to think
You have a confusion. Cats comes in many sizes and shapes, certainly big cats comes at the top of the food chain. A lynx certainly holds his place against a wolf and probably scare away a coyote, or a fox. And if he crosses a chihuahua, better the later be a fast runner. Same thing, small cats are not match for big dogs or wolves. But, as a rule a cat is a better fighter, faster, more agile than a dog. Also cats are VERY SMART. And, as some mentioned, cats are alpha types, they obey only to themselves, and NEVER subordinate to humans. That's the trait I most love about cats.
Toby is the definition of a friendly dog, instead of creating conflict with Pablo he decides to make him a friend. The way he notices Pablo and sits down and waits for him to have a bite at 10:01 is just adorable.
Pablo on the other hand has already taken control of the relationship with an iron fist, like a true criminal mastermind he has convinced Toby that he should be thankful that Escobarn now takes a piece of Toby's food as payment for Pablo's acceptance.
I love how Toby shoves his face right into Pablo like "YAY We're FRIENDS!" and Pablo just puts his paw up like "Please. acquaintance at most."
I’m pretty sure Pablo thought HE was the livestock guardian dog
Well, he should've kept the minks out of the coop then.
Pablo had accepted Tobi as his pet as well! 😅😂
So first, Morgan buys ducks and he’s allergic and to their eggs, next he gets cats which he’s also allergic to. What is he doing with his life (we ask) the he gets chickens for eggs he can eat and they die no eggs for Morgan only allergies, THEN he gets Toby dog the first animal that he’s not allergic to and isn’t trouble (the one of the geese that he thought was a male was a female of the other breed, more trouble)
Lol
hahahhaha
Its a learning process
The joy of the learning curve rollercoaster. lol Spice of life!
Never a dull moment on Gold Shaw Farms! ☺
This is the only video I've watched in the past two days that gives me some kind of happiness after finding out my friend is going to pass away in the hospital. Thank you for this content
Don't give up yet Matt. Where there is life there is hope. Hugs.
I'm really sorry to hear that. My thoughts are with you and your friend.
@@GoldShawFarm thanks man. It means the world
I'm really sorry about your friend.
From what the corona virus ?
Actually Pablo established himself as the head of the pack. They will continue to grow their relationship. You really have done an excellent job with integrating them all. And a lot of their interactions are a combination of playing and establishing pecking order.
It's probably got a lot to do with the fact that cats don't really dig puppy enthusiasm. Toby wants to jump around and play, and that freaks cats out a bit. Once he settles down they might find it easier to get along. Plus they can take a while to get used to each others body language. Tail wagging means different things in cat and dog.
Pablo Escobarn....omg aahhahahahahah
Laughed out loud there I wasn't aware!! Lol... But release the quacken gets me Everytime too!!
😂😂😂😂
Watching Pablo and Toby interact I can fully say that they are friends. Lots of play fighting is happening that can be mistaken for actual fighting, but they seem to be having fun with each other like siblings. I don't think that they will ever be cuddly with each other like cats and dogs who have been raised together, but they seem to be happy.
It actually does seem like they get on a bit even when you were petting Toby text to Pablo he only sort boxed him away without using his claws which I think is a good sign.
The cats just don't have to be near him unless if they were in the house, so it's pretty logical they'd be off doing their own things.
Toby and Pablo have a very healthy relationship. They are figuring it out in an amazing natural way. They are working it out and you are correct that the food sharing is helping. I have 5 dogs and one cat and they all interact differently. Each one understands the other. Beautiful farm you have.
I think Toby and Pablo already look quite friendly!
Actually, Pablo has shown Toby who is boss by eating his food. Toby is being submissive to Pablo.
Hopefully one day they will get along
All I can think of is that one comic.
Toby: Human! I wish to play with the angry small dog!
Lil and Pablo: D :
my cousin rescued a marema in bad situation when she already had 2 cats, she was intending to move it onto a farm but it bonded to her cats and is now the cat guardian
Toby thinks he is a duck :p
"Release the Quakken" -- I nearly choked on my drink!!!
I have had cats and dogs both living together...and they get along...most of the time. It does take time.
I adopted a German Shepherd,( I was worried that she was a "Cat Eater"). About that time a little white ball of fluf,showed up at my door.I thought...this won't work!.... Sasha (G.S.D.) adopted that kitten!!!! They slept together, until Frankie passed away,(8year old)....
Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Toby is still a pup so he’s playful and Pablo must understand it’s still young and he is in charge as the oldest
"food peace" is a real phenomenon, animals that eat side by side will be more well-disposed towards eachother.
Pablo doesn’t dislike Toby. He’s just putting the big fluffy puppy in his place and Toby’s a good doggo playing along with it. They are good. ;)
Toby basically wined Pablo just like you win over every man, through his stomach, clever dog
Interaction between Toby and the cats is adorable. At least Pablo has become friendly towards Toby if nothing else to steal food.
You have given Pablo such a wonderful life after a bad start. If the worst thing he has to deal with is a big, goofy, lovable dog, well, he's pretty fortunate.
Believe it or not, Pablo has already established that he's the alpha over Toby and Little. You're going to want to be MUCH more cautious once you get a second dog, however, because of pack mentality. That's where I see the real risk coming into this. Great video as always!
That was my thought the second dog is going to be or could be the game changer male or female but the females are normally the boss dog or from my experience they normally are - if he does not want to breed from them go back to the same breeder and get another boy from the same parents - if he does want to breed find someone with the same line but with enough changes to get the right female with the same personally still going through which you will tell from visiting both parent - that is line breeding
Thanks for the tip.
I’ll probably get a female who is a cousin/sibling of Toby’s.
Possible, but like as not Pablo will teach the puppy that she is a minion in his realm, and must bow down to the King. I've had cats and dogs my entire life, I'm 73, and the cats have always been rulers of the house. In fact when I was just a kid we had a dog, whenever he managed to escape would actually kill cats. My father brought home a cat he got from a friend who was moving. The dog soon learned Puff was the queen and he was her servant. If another cat came into the yard he would case it up a tree and she would knock it down, and they would chase it out of the yard. He also became a home body and quit escaping.
@@GoldShawFarm cousin would work to breed with - she needs to be past her second birthday to breed and should/will come into season every 6 months so she will need to be pend away behind a fence then a walkway then another fence don't forget this or you will have a 6 month old breed as they will breed through a wire cage I kid you not - you breeder if they are experienced will help you with the right bitch - put your feelers out now for 6 months to a years time as they will be planning their breeding
8:28. They're fine. That's really good interaction and neither is being aggressive (Pablo's swatting is basically just a warning, not agression)
I've only come to discover this channel for less than 3 weeks, and so far I've binged on all the videos thrice. The storytelling, the scenery, the quackins and the adorableness is cute. It's very lovely.
You are like magic. You got me to sit still for 11 and a half minutes while you talked about a dog and 2 cats. LOL simply magic.
4:40 Pablo high tailed it the hell outta there 😂😭
Lil Barn Cat: :Do I like Toby? No. Never."
Pablo Barn Cat."I l like his food. I don't hate Toby. It's just that I don't like that he's a dog."
Enjoy coming back to older videos and seeing what's changed. This is one of those hilarious in hindsight. Toby and Pablo are the bestest of buds nowadays.
Pablo is probably one of the most healthy looking cat I’ve ever seen
Toby is too sweet to hurt anyone 😌❤️. Definitely Toby needs a buddy dog.
ThNks for making playlists. Keep them coming!!
Wonderful little video. I love the way animals interact.
Really as long as Toby isn't intentionally chasing the cats or harming them (which he's not) the cats will get use to him, it just takes a long while especially because he's so high energy. Especially as Toby gets older, he will get a lot calmer and the cats will be pretty chill with him. Let the cats smack him if he gets to close or is to excited around them, it lets them set boundaries and establish who is boss.
I absolutely love watching this vision of yours grow. Every video just makes my day. Still waiting for the guardian live stock tigers lol! I have faith around October 31st one might appear.
Hope I didn't miss it, but can we get an update on bernie???????
I am not interested in farms and videos about daily lives but this channel is just relaxing. Watching there videos is just calming.
Love your stories! Refreshing content!
the food thing is actually how you acclimate feral cats with humans, you pet them while they eat. So I think Toby is onto something!
poor Toby. The song "Somebody to love" comes to mind.
Oh and Pablo thinks he is "king of the farm animals" because he was first 🤣
And when you get your second dog ... that is when the fireworks will begin 🤣 lol
You are a good storyteller and your camera shots are really well done. I love the music and video scenes you add to each seen. You take a lot of time to find the right sound bite. Well done. Thank you.
I love it when you realest the ducks and the excitement of them going yo the pond
Pablo: Ah, chickens. I know when the time comes, I will have first pick of your blood and guts. So just keep pecking, ladies!
Julia Kovacs 😆😆😆😆
“RELEASE THE QUACKEEEENNNN”
“Quack quack quack quack quack”
I think Toby lets Pablo eat first because Toby came in as a puppy and Pablo was already there and all grown up. In his dog way, Toby knows Pablo is older and sees Pablo as being more established. May also be because it's a trait of his breed that they are protective of the animals in their home community.
I’m watching this in 2022 and it’s amazing how Pablo and Toby are now the best of friends
I have a shepherd breed of a dog who is residing with a cat inside the house. They never cuddled, but they both came to respect each other's boundaries, with some encouragement on my part. Don't worry, I think nature inevitably leans towards balance, it will come, maybe in a form different from what you would have liked or imagined but still existent and evident (and it won't involve the killing or injury of either party, maybe perhaps some social distancing at times).
😂 Don’t worry about it. Toby is an annoying pup. Pablo is just training him too. (My largest pack was 4 rescued Rottweilers, 3 rescued cats and two humans in an 800 square foot cabin) it just takes time. You’re right though Lil won’t come around. 🤷♀️
Omg, that's hilarious. It's like Toby figured out to use his food as a "positive reinforcement" for Pablo being near him. 😄
you are an amazing man, really looking at your pets behaviour to understand the potential buddies, it's fab
Pablo esco barn : "I'll be friends with you if you treat me nice 🙀"
Toby: "Here, take my food you lil' rascal! 🙂"
Cat: Barn cat
Dog: white fluffy, cuddle, ball dog
ha
Beautiful farm man. Reminds me of my childhood in Northern Minnesota and Central Montana
Hi just came across your vid, aw all those animals are just so cute!
My cat takes liberties with my LSG dog's food also. He takes advantage of her love of cats to the fullest. However, when my cat just walks in the general vecinity of the poultry they will send up alarm calls and my dog will chase the cat out of the general area. My dog is 10 times bigger than my cat and the poultry will walk right in front of her but if the cat walks by 100 yards away they go into hysterics. My cat has only 1 tooth in his mouth and could hurt a full grown chicken or duck if he wanted to but the dog with the full set of bone crushing teeth, who comes and goes in their coop and pen, poses no threat at all. I guess the cat has the walk of a predator.
It did seen to me that Pablo BC was play seating at Toby Dog from the top of the saw horses. Female cats are a different animal they take longer to warm up to others animals including people. I call them snobs. Our female cat is my dogs favorite but they are both females. Maybe that's the difference because the cat was raised in a house full of cats. The dog probably grew up with cats because at 1year old she knew to respect the sharp end of the cat and how to move around them. Toby will learn. I don't see him being mean to the cats he is just puppy curious and probably a little lonely.
Hope the tigers become friends with both of em
hahahha
True
What - do you mean all eight of them?
that might be one of the happiest dogs ive seen, just look at his eyes and face expressions. It makes me so glad :D
You are an excellent story teller, and Toby and the Barn Cats is a great subject! They well all find the way to fit in best, usually despite the humans trying to fix things up.
Your videos always have great content, and photography. Thanks for sharing with us.
The food DOES help with the relationship between the dog and the cats! It's one of the steps of introducing a new cat to a household that already has a cat. Getting them eating calmly with a door between them, with a gate between them, then with nothing between them. Food is a positive, and if they can share meals calmly, their relationship is improved. To keep the relationship going, I'd find treats that Pablo really likes. Give Pablo treats for tolerating Toby and train Toby to be calm around the cats. Some miscommunication between them, at least at first, is bound to be normal, because dog body language is very different from cat body language. As long as their interactions continue to be positive, their relationship should improve. To get Lil more used to Toby, maybe try feeding Lil and Pablo closer to Toby. Get her used to the idea that good things (food!) happen when Toby is near and Toby is not a danger to her.
There's plenty of hope for that goofy mutt and the cats, looks like they'll be quite good together too me.
Aww! They’re so cute together. Toby is the time best doggie 🐶
Pablo is so emotionally intelligent:) he does not seem to suffer too much..good for the sweet boy he seems happy all the time
He's a great cat!
Cats dont even tolerate other Cats.All will be well...Coyotes like to eat Cat so Pablo does owe Toby lol
exactly
Great video as always! While I think it's good to take note of these behaviours, domesticated animals don't always follow the natural instincts of their wild cousins. The rules of nature are driven by a need to survive. If a wild animal needs food to survive and it doesn't know where the next meal is coming from, that food becomes a point of contention when it's found. By contrast, a domesticated animal KNOWS it will get food at such and such a time every day. It has eliminated the need for food to be a point of contention. Toby knows that he'll be getting food the next day. He also knows that he likes to hang around Pablo--why not give him some?
You're really GOOD! I download and show at a retirement centre and they are IN LOVE WITH YOU and ALL the critters....thanks
Nice to see a focus on the cats and dog. ,😺🐕💖
Dont worry, pablo and toby will be friends in no time
Meh. Our outside dogs & cats always had a mutual fear of each other (and yet they eventually ended up sleeping together on cold nights) 🤷♀️
This is fun to look back on knowing pablo and toby are good friends now. Glad to see little barn cat is pretty much back to normal now too.
Pablo Esco Barn! That's insanely awesome. That's something I would come up with! I love it.
Pablo and Lil said Toby didn't pass the vibe check
Also Pablo gives off the energy of the eldest sibling annoyed by his youngest sibling 😂
💯
3:42 - why do they want to eat your hand?
Easy - they are the SPAWNS OF DEVIL
Really solid editing of this video. You cut it together nicely and kept it moving along. Great story! Now I wanna find out what happens next! :)
Hey Morgan, me and our daughters found your channel yt surfing about ducks last week. Beans saw the icon for Toby and asked to watch one and we've been watching your stuff out of order this week. Just wanted to say thank you for the fun poultry videos. Our 5yo has been asking to watch the goose/duck videos after nap time this past few days. It's definitely helped us stay a bit more sane plus learning something new with every episode. We're still on the planning stages of setting up farm and was considering ducks when we start. Again, thanks for the videos that you put out and you're definitely a cool farmer in our book. Much thanks and keep on keeping on good sir! All the love from Southern California ❤️💛💜🧡 ✌️
Thank you! I'm glad I could help with nap time.
Cat's body language: ''not a threat, let be friends'' aka ''I can see you from afar = we are friends enough''. As long as your dog wont get into their face cat's will tolerate= accept his presence. Cat that doesn't want you around or feel you are a threat wont stick around and you wont see him in the open like this. Social cats will move around your property with you but not necessarily stick close to you. Even when Pablo chases your dog away you can clearly see him squint his eyes = ''not a threat I'm just playing you socially awkward white cloud''. Always look at cat's eyes (NOT STARING = threatening) dilated pupils= excitement, scared, angry. lowlight? Stand: ready to bounce or relaxed? If cat's grooming = sign of zen moment = no threats = only friendlies around. When you see cat squint his eyes it means: ''understand I'm not a threat''. Also cats who are scared or threatened will never let their back exposed. They do that when they feel safe. summon of safety = sleep on their back; tummy exposed. From Pablo's view he and Toby are best m8's.
Treat Pablo and Lil for tapeworms. It makes them starving all of the time.
So sweet barn Cars and Tobby. Very sweet💖
3:41 I know I'm late, he probably thinks your reaching down (to unlock it) is aggressive, like another gander. And everyday he's successful in chasing you off! 😆
If possible, try moving the lock up, or just using the top barrel bolt.
As far as the food goes, I don’t think Toby has the trauma or influence to get aggressive over his food. Our outdoor animals all ate from the same big dish (an upside down trash can lid 😆). I think the shared eating space is probably more of a bonding situation than a recipe for disaster (plus you’re pretty present around them all, so I don’t think it’d get destructive without you noticing)
Wow, the Pablo hates him so much that he eats his food. Revenge lunch
Pablo May just smack without claws as a warning. When they were close together was a good treat moment as another fan wrote.
man i love your videos..they are too kool..God bless you and yours
Pablo seems more ambivolant. "Toby is dog, and dog not bad! HISSS stay away!"
Lil' however definately 2ants nothing to do with toby.
A farmer that respects animals? Wut?
Looks like they have it worked out just fine. It will be fun to watch as that relationship grows. I have had some odd couples on our small urban farm and I think it was mostly because of limited space the animals had to get along and it was fun to see how they worked things out. As long as nobody eats anybody else all is well.
I really love your videos! Just found your channel and wanted to say keep up the great work. It seems like you are a very responsible and caring to your animals :)
Thank you!
