"My Furry Hero - Emme Once again." Top 5 Page for this destination Tehachapi Travelogue by Yaqui

This is my furry hero. I was going out late just after dark to let my horses out of their stalls when all I could hear was this very loud shhhh...sound along with my wonderful furry friend Emme who was barring her teeth and growling fiercely at something. If she hadn't warned me, I probably would have stepped on the rattle snake. Don't worry she is OK!

Not a happy snake!

Found in my backyard!;-(. Sorry, can't show you the rest! Came across five so far:-(

You know, I cannot say enough about this lovely ball of fur. She is so loved and cherished by the whole family. Well, Friday night she let out that she was very displeased by something thundering around in the dark. My husband quickly went outside only to run back in side in a panick to let me know our neighbors four horses were out running around. I live by a main road and new immediately it would spell disaster if someone didn't hurd them from this road, so while my husband went to do this, I went running in gym outfit through the mud and snow to let my neighbor know she had escapies. We chases them up the road figuring it was safer till we could get clothed better since it was 30 degrees outside and did eventually round them all up without any injuries, Thank God!
