Just about everyone in Battle Mountain has dogs and usually more than one. So on that account we fit right in with our two muttlies. The thing about dogs here that I find amazing is the fact that they usually ride in the back of a pickup, free. Some people have crates in the bed of the truck but most just let the dogs move about freely. I walked to town yesterday and a truck went by with 4 dogs in the bed and they were barking and jumping up on the cab. I would be afraid they would jump or fall out. I need to do some more research on this.
There are a lot of people with horses as well. They seem to have them just to have them or maybe they don't ride them in winter. Although I can't see why not it reached 42 today and was beautiful.
I took Gracie for a walk around the loop of our development and there was not a single point when there was not the sound of a dog barking. Thank goodness they are all fenced in or I would have a problem. That was one of the biggest draws to this house, the entire acre is fenced in with a separate section just for the dogs. It even has a doggy door into the barn.
