Yes I know, but it is still fascinating and keeps you thinking , trying to find what it is, she does. So far she is staring at them when they try to wander of and when they return from outside the fence she pins them; not all because not all are going but not always the same one even if they were out with more then one.
I let her do her job the last times we went outside, the pining got less but one time this morning she was very sirious and pined them all repeadetly and with more inforcement. They cept closer to me every time a little more when we went outside,that made it hard to walk.
This afternoon they didn't leave the property they stayed mostly close to me, or outside the paddoks and whatched me. because the horses were running a little.they went to the fence but stoped, even anka just hoped outside and came right back, because the others didn't follow.
Eventhough the cowpiles are such a nice treat....
When i walk they stay close to me, "Zwicke", the one I will keep, stays often very close to me and the others pin her then, probaly because they are jelous.
Mom is usually up front and doesn't care too much.
The three little ones make it hard for me to walk, lately, "Zwicke" trys to keep in heel position looking up to me, tapping my hand with her nose, she would stay there if she wouldn't get pined by the others. whe we walk out the door she sprints about three to four meters and stops, returnes to me , then the others come and usually start fights, and take off. but not that far anymore..... fast falling back next to me or short in front of me.even though mom is quite a ways ahead.
It is so interesting and I try to figure it out, what all happens, and why. one thing is i am right in the middle and can't observe from the outside.
The ranking of the pups is still changing. Anka is quite a little "mom" and fights because she can and winns, if somebody fights back the third one not involved gets attacked., she has to take out her frustration...
Quite some attentionfighting going on lately, maybe that plays in the part that theynstay closer, too.
