I am not a beef eater. <BR/>Have you noticed that they all have their own little hair-do. Here in California we have some great California cheese comercials with cows. They are a riot some times. Maybe you are involved in that somehow being the cow whisperer. ;)Angela Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03835467401421359066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1946839117757998659.post-48796432293097747072007-10-22T19:29:00.000-07:002007-10-22T19:29:00.000-07:00the quiete life of cowsthe quiete life of cowswww.photo-effe.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05745970743398492253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1946839117757998659.post-19801607129610771092007-10-22T17:47:00.000-07:002007-10-22T17:47:00.000-07:00Mmm never heard (or should I say herd!)of cow whis...Mmm never heard (or should I say herd!)of cow whispering!!<BR/><BR/>I think you should give it a miss if you are thinking of teenagers next, they either have selective hearing or had they're hearing damaged by listening to their personel MP3 players too loud!Elisa...life as we know it.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09694115298853432814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1946839117757998659.post-63973096146191025502007-10-22T07:57:00.000-07:002007-10-22T07:57:00.000-07:00you got ittry the donkeys first.......you actually...you got it<BR/>try the donkeys first.......you actually have the concept....though with equine family... it's driving the hind end... get the back legs moving and then like a football play... block the head and change direction by driving the shoulder<BR/><BR/>then get submissive once that's established and approach<BR/><BR/>equine should follow you but you have to walk slowly and kinda drunk... not straight.<BR/><BR/>same theory with kids.......they either work or follow<BR/><BR/>problem is getting them to move/work..... a simple shooing of the arm doesn't quite do it for them........."M2"https://www.blogger.com/profile/01004469190584865814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1946839117757998659.post-70689623680962213292007-10-22T06:20:00.000-07:002007-10-22T06:20:00.000-07:00Cows are really great. :) Perhaps I should try out...Cows are really great. :) Perhaps I should try out that leader thing - plenty of cows where I come from!<BR/>Though, I bet it helps if you're actually taller than the cow.

They started walking down the road and I was in a panic, so I remembered how dogs would herd them and ran as fast as I could and got in front of them. They all turned and I herded them down the driveway and back into their pen! I was so proud....lol<BR/>(sorry for the trip down memory lane..hehe)JLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08893491413749552746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1946839117757998659.post-30301189380483661682007-10-21T15:14:00.000-07:002007-10-21T15:14:00.000-07:00You're hilarious.
