Sue surprised me. I thought her date was 4 days from now. She was nervous at first. Mayhem, actually. A first time mother and being Nel’s daughter account for that. Sue will not be winning any ‘Mother of the Year’ awards. She settled down as they started to roll out. A little help from me along the way assured that everything kept going smoothly(ish). Sue is a bull on the field and in the whelping box. Hard bitches tend to be less attentive moms. The best mothers tend to be calm, smart, deft working sheep, kind, less dominant and pushy. Jazz and Lotti and Meg all fit in that category.

Congratulations Susie!
