Brandi don’t beat yourself up Sister..I’m glad you took our warnings ,information to heart and researched for yourself..Also watch apple cores and garlic..I am 59 years old and I can remember giving our dogs growing up all of these things..We used to give our hunting dogs,pet dogs a clove of garlic a day to ward of fleas & ticks ..Weird thing is these dogs lived longer than dogs today..We even had two dogs eat two chocolate cakes..Chocolate also can hurt them but just like the grapes and the dogs size etc..Luckily we always had huge fur babies..I have raised many dogs,cats,birds,many many critters exotic and average pets,and a few farm animals..I’ve made plenty of mistakes along the way…Not intentionally..We know yinz love and care for your pets as if they are your children…It’s awesome to have some many friends to help along the way..I truly wish I had so many caring friends to guide me along my journey…Sending positive energy blessings and prayers from Pittsburgh PA.💛🖤💛Blessed be..
@lorimiller3375 on garlic it depends on the breed of the pups on garlic because mine was a celebrity cotti Tori farm pup and she could have garlic because it helped her with the fleas and ticks and helped her out on drinking water
Brandi please be careful with anything that has Onions in it also. Yes it takes awhile to do the damage in most dogs. But I know you want to stop it if you can.
Please be careful walking on the ponds or anywhere that looks frozen.. the ice might not be thick enough to hold up under them playing on it and jumping on it.. I never knew until recently that grapes are toxic to animals either.. I knew not to give chocolate to the dogs.. I’m glad Gunner is ok..
Hey Brandy, it was NOT fatal or even near fatal but, yeah it was a learning experience. Im so glad you learned from our comments and Gunnar was ok. Dont beat yourself up, it was an honest mistake you knew nothing about.❤
Liked the way Hope threw the straw in both huts 😂 great job Hope 💗. It was great to see the girls playing on the iced pond but as a Mum I couldn’t help but hold my breath 😂
Love your channel! Just a dog trainer's suggestion. If you don't want Gunner to jump up, don't pet him when he's up on the fence. That just reinforces the jumping 🙃.
Everyone can clearly see you are not a horrible pet mama!!! It’s so obvious you love all your animals. My daughter was the equivalent of a doggy PA & she’s always telling us don’t love your pets with food. They make their dogs food with cooked beef or chicken, rice & veggies like carrots. We learned the hard way overweight “food loved” animals are not healthy. If I ever get another dog, I’ll make their food like my daughter. And I’ll never have another overweight dog again. The health issues were painful to see. I loved seeing the girls on the pond!!! Country girls have the most fun!!! Blessings, debby
Brandi, I am one of the grape advisors so sorry. I just wanted you to know FYI. You are all very obviously fantastic pet owners. Just knowing foods that aren’t ok for dogs is almost better than knowing what is ok for them to have. ❤ you guys Love the fun the girls had on the pond thanks Hayden (sp) that was a great idea to film. Thanks for the videos Brandi
I did not know about grapes not being good for doggies. So I looked it up and found a list of 26 foods that are toxic for dogs. One of the items is ice cream. I was shocked! Sonic gives doggies a wag cup of ice cream free to doggies with you.
Good job prepping the animals places for the cold weather. The well house looks nice. Anyone should know that you would never intentionally hurt any of your animals. Stay safe and warm during the cold. GOD bless y'all
It was fun to watch the girls at the pond . They were so excited to play.No grapes , raisins , chocolate, uncooked potatoes, onions , beans, corn cobs , chicken bones, turkey bones, i can't think of more. But if I can think of anymore I will tell you. God bless you all 🙏🙏🙏 Love you guys 💕🙏
You are a good dog owner, you didn't know. I did give one of my dogs grapes years ago and I had no idea until someone told me . But I'm glad you did read the comments, maybe you will be the one who inform someone of that another time. ❤️🥰
Brandi, when my son was about 12 yrs old we had a small dog and he fed him some chocolate and I noticed the dog was sick so I took it to the vet and so thankful that the dog lived. But, knowing now we never give an animal chocolate. Also, my cat would get into my coffee and I found out that caffeine is not good for animals either so I watch my drinks so that the cats do not get into them. We learn something new everyday, that is part of life.
I hope you don't think I was mad at you Brandy. It was only because I had fed them to my dog and did not know and made her very sick. I'm so thankful that Gunners okay. He's a lot bigger than my dog was. Love watching the girls play at the pond on the ice. God love you all God bless you all❤❤❤❤❤
Brandi, know that I wasn’t being critical, and I don’t think that anyone else was either. Knowledge is power, as the saying goes. There are quite a few foods that aren’t good for our beautiful dogs. You love your animals as much as the rest of us love ours. I just want you to be informed. You are wonderful pet owners. My vet just lectured me about my service dog’s diet. I’m making changes. It hurts our hearts because our fur babies are part of the family. We all make mistakes, but that’s part of life. I admire you and all the rest of your beautiful family (your girls are such beautiful young ladies); critters included! I always have you in my prayers. Y’all have a truly blessed day!
Not sure if anyone noticed but when the girls were at the pond someone was out in the woods above them in a black coat with a white stripe on it. Loved watching the girls have fun.
Brandi life hands us countless lessons. Thank God that your puppy is good and that this is one lesson well learned. No pet owner is perfect all the time. We do our very best though, don't we? Thank you for letting us know you heard us.
We had Concord Grape arbor in our back yard. Everyone knew you dont eat the grapes that hang low they belonged to our dog , she helped herself. She was a Toy Fox Terrier lived to be 16 years old and weighed 12 pounds.
Hi Brandi , fairly new follower but just wanted to post to say thankyou and to your beautiful girls! Love watching you guys 🙏🌻🫶 Love from Western Australia
Don’t feel bad. You didn’t know about grapes or raisins. I didn’t either until a few years ago. We know you guys love and take good care of your animals.
Brandi, I can totally relate. I’ve raised dogs my whole life, for the most part large dogs (Labs, German Shepherd, Husky’s, Dalmatian’s). We have ALWAYS fed our babies what ever we ate, until about 5 years ago. I purchased a AKC Chocolate Labrador after losing my Shepard to Bloat. I’m a retired widow and my son is grown. So to say the least Remington is my baby. When we brought him home we found out he had a really bad case of hook worms and it was a struggle for weeks to get him healthy. During this time in an effort to get him to eat and gain weight I started researching foods for him to eat. I was mind blown at the foods they were saying were dangerous or fatal to feed dogs. Foods we had always been feeding our dogs (grapes, raisins, onions, chocolate). Our last lab was 16 years old when she passed and she could eat more chocolate than any adult I ever met, it was her favorite treat and now I was reading it was fatal to feed dogs any chocolate. 😮. So yes I do research every thing I feed my babies now! But I can definitely relate at how things have changed in what we can feed our pets. So please don’t beat your self up. Gunner is safe and you now know 🐾❤️🐾
The girls made me a little nervous running across the pond. Glad they are all good. My little dog ate a bag of Hershey kisses one day while I was gone to the store, luckily it didn’t even make him sick. I do get on yt. And see what dogs can have and not have. I was surprised at what they can’t have.
I have been told it is dark chocolate that can be dangerous? Sixty years ago, our family dog ate every single milk chocolate ornament around the bottom of our Christmas tree, ( mom blamed us kids) the dog lived another ten years, thankfully!❤
I Did not Know that grapes Were bad for dogs intill my cousin from Sweden informera me!!!! So when I was watching your video I thought you might not Know like me!!! Brandi We leran every day!!! I love your beautiful family and your Wonderful animals!!!! You are a super Mom to your beautiful Daughters and your loving animals!! Thank you for Sharing your life Journey with U.S.!!! You should Find a portrait painter and Have he or She paint individual portraits of your daughters!!! Thank you so much for all that you give U.S.!!!
Brandy you did good you did the research. Drs. come up with new things that cause problems with our animals all the time just like us. The girls made me laugh when they were playing on the pond it brought back memories of me and my friends playing in the snow. Love you all God bless and until next time take care
Great video! Was a little gittery when the girls were on the pond, but I didn’t know how deep it is or how frozen it is or isn’t. But glad they are safe! Gunner didn’t have enough to hurt him. You know we all do things we don’t know will hurt. It’s ok. You are good dog owners! Now you know, you won’t do it again. We all love you guys and don’t want anything to happen to your animals because you didn’t know! Love you all! Blessings.❤from OKC.
The seeds in the grapes are what's harmful, most ppl don't know, don't beat yourself up. Ya'll take care of the animals as well as anyone else would, even better. I was holding my breath though when the girls were on the pond...lol 😂 Love ya'll ❤️
Most people don't know about grapes. I didn't comment because so many others did. Live and learn. That is the way of the world. Take care! Love and prayers to you and the family. ❤
Brandi I'm 51 and until last year I didn't know that dogs can't have grapes I felt like you. Now you know and I'm grateful he was a big dog and I did go to the comments but you had already been informed so I talked about something else in the video don't beat yourself up you didn't know and now you do.😊🧡💜🧡
Brandi, years ago(early 80's) we had a dog named Bear, that dog ate anything and everything he could find. Our neighbors grew all kinds of things, Bear always helped himself to the garden goodies. I'm not sure when we realized that some fruits and veggies were bad for our fur babies but they never had any issues. In the early 90's (new life path) I had a golden retriever/husky named Sadie, Sadie loved Hershey chocolate bars, back then they were marked with 8 squares per bar and she wouldn't walk away until she knew she actually got all 8 pieces. We never knew chocolate was bad for her and neither did she... she also ate whatever we ate, including grapes...we had her for 14 years until she just got old and tired. What a great dog she was with my kids and everyone...I sure miss her still after almost 20 years of being gone. We know you weren't trying to harm Gunner, it's really amazing how many people DON'T know about toxic foods for pets, I'm still learning new things.
Brandi your truly a wonderful lady, don't beat yourself up I'm 58 and honestly only learned that myself last spring after my dog got ill and rushed her to vet said what has she ate recently and i said couple grapes and they gave her activated charcoal and it helped , I cried felt horrible, but id never realized so it happens xx
Brandi I’m 58 years old and I have never heard of this either! So glad to know! I have a big old Great Dane and a little shih tzu . The oddest thing they eat is cashews! I hope that’s okay because they love them!😂 Our little Hope is growing up! She’s helping a lot! And Hayden and Hadlee are doing their share as well! I hope y’all did well and stayed warm during the freezing weather! Lots of prayers for y’all! Love and blessings from this old Bama girl!❤❤❤
Brandi, I have a small terrier mix and I have given her grapes all her life. She is 12 now and all the vet can say about her is she has the best looking teeth for her age. You and Dutch are great pet parents and keep doing what you are doing.
Your girls are so awesome…I remember playing on the frozen ponds when I was their age…so fun…now I can’t even seem to trek the sidewalk doing the penguin waddle worrying I may break my hip..😂. We were frozen but loved it. Enjoyed listening to their laughter.
Wow, I never new that about dogs eating grapes. Though I never have fed dog grapes. Glad you posted this this for others to know. Thank you for your viewers.
Hi Brandi. I knew about the grapes but I said nothing. I thought for such a big dog it would take a lot to do any harm. I should have said something. There are several things out there that can hurt a dog. I loved watching the girls on the ice. It brings back memories with my brothers and sisters. You take very good care of your animals so never think you are bad at it. We learn as we go along in life. Stay warm. 😊❤
No grapes for dogs, no chocolate for dogs. Keep up the good videos. I watched them here in Pennsylvania all the time. God bless to you and your family. Be safe at all times Ken From pennsylvania
Oh gosh! Give yourself grace! I am 53 years old, have had dogs all my life and never knew that about grapes until just a few years ago. You can search for a list of poisonous things for any animal. You learn something new every day and it’s a good day! God bless you and your family and homestead! 💕
When reading the title of this video, I was scared the whole time waiting to see what was going to happen. So glad nothing did. This is something I have never heard of before either. Thank you for the info.
Well you learn something new every day. I had no idea that raisins or grapes can cause renal failure in dogs (or humans). I have never ever been told that by my nephrologist or even my transplant team. Thank You Mrs Dutch
Better be safe than sorry everyone makes mistakes but least gunner is doing ok getting big stay warm and stay safe y'all big hugs from Washington State take care and God bless.
Thanks to Hope.. she is a go-getter! Always willing to help dad. You can tell the animals love her. And Hadly too! And Hanna! A family working together!
The girls on the pond was a hoot - loved watching them. Don’t beat yourself up - I didn’t know originally either several years ago. There’s also lists that you can check to see about food not to feed dogs. It’s all good. You did great. Hugs.
Your a great dog owner and didn't know, we still love you. I always do research on all the animals I own, so I don't make mistakes. We all learn as we go along, your doing fine.
Thanks for the video. I worked with a guy years back, that never realized buck deer's shed there alters every year. He was 40 yrs old or so. We learn something every day. Stay warm. It has been cold here in Iowa.
Over the years we have had numerous dogs of various breads. All rescued from shelters or people who couldn’t care for them. On was a large cocker spaniel who favored treat was GRAPES. HAD HER FOR YEARS. Never was sick or anything and died of old age, again it was treats not its normal food. You guys treat your animals wonderful.
Brandi, please know that you and your family are good people and you are very responsible Homesteaders. You are raising a few pets and a lot of farm stock. Most people that comment raise little house dogs that go out on a leash only. Some foods are harmful but not everything is going to kill a dog that people say that it is. I had a big black Lab that went into my Mom's house years ago and ate a three layer chocolate cake and lived to be an old guy. No one in their right mind thinks that you would hurt an animal. You are loved and cared for.
I am so glad he is ok! You can resurch what foods are not good for dogs... that way, when you feed the pigs, maybe you can keep it from him. Just a thought. You all are so great with your animals! Love you all so much ❤❤❤❤
Hi Brandi and Family. Love your videos and they are getting really good. Hopefully yall got your pipes thawed out Gunner is getting big and beautiful. Stay safe and warm during the extreme cold weather. The girls are getting big and beautiful. How is the Elk meat. God bless and love yall ❤❤
We didn’t know until our dog started having trouble with her feet! We weren’t giving her grapes, but we researched what foods are good for dogs with allergies 😊! That’s when we found out about a bunch of things 😮! I’m glad Gunner is ok, he’s a healthy big puppy 🐶 🥰! Take care in this frigid weather 🥶! God Bless🙏🏻🤗💕!
Brandi alot of people don't know. 25 years ago before I started.to work for a Veterinarian I had no idea and fed my dog grapes. Animal Poison control has a list of foods the can and can't have. Carrots are a great treat, broccoli, green beans no salt if canned, Cantaloupe, watermelon. Love watching you care for your animals no one can know everything.
Gunner was trying to be helpful and spread the straw.😅 I've never heard the grape/raisin thing either. My roomate had a bigger dog that used to steal a few grapes from her toddler and peel them. It liked the juicy inside but not the skin and would very delicately peel the skin and drop it to the side. We didn't want it stealing food from the toddler, so we broke it of that habit. I'm glad Gunner was OK and thanks for sharing the grape knowledge.
Iam so glad you took it to heart. I tell from experience I didn't know grapes were bad and fed them to my always begging dog. Two days later my poor dog died. I was broken hearted. Felt so guilty. So thankful you found out before it was too late like me. Go DC bless❤❤
Girls take a long pole and poke the ice in front of your steps to test if it’s frozen solid. Be careful, you can get hypothermia really fast. Brandi glad Gunner is ok. Didn’t know there were foods not to feed our dogs u til I was an adult. There is an internet site that lists all of the toxic foods and flowers and plants that are toxic to pets. Might check it out. The girls are such fun to watch and what a big help they are helping with the animals.
No grapes, raisins, chocolate or onions. He's good and that's what matters
Brandi don’t beat yourself up Sister..I’m glad you took our warnings ,information to heart and researched for yourself..Also watch apple cores and garlic..I am 59 years old and I can remember giving our dogs growing up all of these things..We used to give our hunting dogs,pet dogs a clove of garlic a day to ward of fleas & ticks ..Weird thing is these dogs lived longer than dogs today..We even had two dogs eat two chocolate cakes..Chocolate also can hurt them but just like the grapes and the dogs size etc..Luckily we always had huge fur babies..I have raised many dogs,cats,birds,many many critters exotic and average pets,and a few farm animals..I’ve made plenty of mistakes along the way…Not intentionally..We know yinz love and care for your pets as if they are your children…It’s awesome to have some many friends to help along the way..I truly wish I had so many caring friends to guide me along my journey…Sending positive energy blessings and prayers from Pittsburgh PA.💛🖤💛Blessed be..
I grew up in Pittsburgh,Pennsylvania. On Brighton Rd. , Marshall Avenue. Went to St.Benedicts Academy. On Perrysvile❤ Avenue. On the North Side.
@lorimiller3375 on garlic it depends on the breed of the pups on garlic because mine was a celebrity cotti Tori farm pup and she could have garlic because it helped her with the fleas and ticks and helped her out on drinking water
Brandi please be careful with anything that has Onions in it also. Yes it takes awhile to do the damage in most dogs. But I know you want to stop it if you can.
Brandi I wished I could send you a picture . I have one of things that dogs cans and can’t. But I don’t know how.
Oh no grapes can cause kidney damage and can be deadly. Grapes are bad and it don’t matter size of dogs! No raisins or grapes!
Please be careful walking on the ponds or anywhere that looks frozen.. the ice might not be thick enough to hold up under them playing on it and jumping on it..
I never knew until recently that grapes are toxic to animals either.. I knew not to give chocolate to the dogs.. I’m glad Gunner is ok..
Agree. It takes longer than one night of below freezing to freeze a pond thick enough to be safe. Plus snow can hide weak spots.
Most definitely!!! Always keep a watch even if you said no sliding on the pond. They still do, I know, I have 3 kids.
Hey Brandy, it was NOT fatal or even near fatal but, yeah it was a learning experience. Im so glad you learned from our comments and Gunnar was ok. Dont beat yourself up, it was an honest mistake you knew nothing about.❤
Agree on the NOT fatal or even close ...I thought I missed something first
The click bate is out of control
Thank you. I was worried.
Liked the way Hope threw the straw in both huts 😂 great job Hope 💗. It was great to see the girls playing on the iced pond but as a Mum I couldn’t help but hold my breath 😂

The girls squeals and laughter are such a joy to listen to. No apology needed for their enjoyment-so appreciative the sharing
Thank you! I think so too ❤
That was too precious. Gunner was actually smiling after kissing her. I was such a big smile. He melted my heart ❤️
Brandi, I am one of the grape advisors so sorry. I just wanted you to know FYI. You are all very obviously fantastic pet owners. Just knowing foods that aren’t ok for dogs is almost better than knowing what is ok for them to have. ❤ you guys

@susanneal3780
I THINK SONIC gives out whip cream cups,,
But could be wrong
@@vickibermudez6238 thank you for that info
Good job prepping the animals places for the cold weather. The well house looks nice. Anyone should know that you would never intentionally hurt any of your animals. Stay safe and warm during the cold. GOD bless y'all
Gunner is such a sweet pup❤. Loved watching the girls play on the ice. God’s blessings
Love your videos and enjoy watching them. May the lord bless and protect you and your family and the animals
Thank you ❤
Brandy, you’re a wonderful mom! The girls are so kind and helpful. Many blessings to you and your family.❤
It was fun to watch the girls at the pond . They were so excited to play.No grapes , raisins , chocolate, uncooked potatoes, onions , beans, corn cobs , chicken bones, turkey bones, i can't think of more. But if I can think of anymore I will tell you. God bless you all 🙏🙏🙏 Love you guys 💕🙏
I didn't know that either Brandi . I can imagine how much you were scared. Glad Gunner is okay. ♥️
Love watching all your videos stay safe warm praying for all in this weather 🙏
You are a good dog owner, you didn't know. I did give one of my dogs grapes years ago and I had no idea until someone told me . But I'm glad you did read the comments, maybe you will be the one who inform someone of that another time. ❤️🥰
Dutch and Brandi, the straw will stay in your dog house better if you will put a board across the bottom of the door. Either a 1 x4 or a 2x4 on edge.
Brandi, when my son was about 12 yrs old we had a small dog and he fed him some chocolate and I noticed the dog was sick so I took it to the vet and so thankful that the dog lived. But, knowing now we never give an animal chocolate.

Oh Brandi don’t feel bad about the grapes. You don’t know until you know. I’m happy Gunner is big enough to be okay.
Such fun! So enjoyed watching the girls on the ice. 😂
I've watched you all for years and love your family. Your all such hard workers.
Love watching the girls having fun on the ice.
I hope you don't think I was mad at you Brandy. It was only because I had fed them to my dog and did not know and made her very sick. I'm so thankful that Gunners okay. He's a lot bigger than my dog was. Love watching the girls play at the pond on the ice. God love you all God bless you all❤❤❤❤❤
Oh no not at all. I appreciated the info from you guys bc I had no idea. Thanks for the kind comment 😊
They are having fun. It’s nice to see all three together
Oh Brandi! God love ya! Not a Fatal Mistake! A learning opportunity! Knowledge is power
Brandi, know that I wasn’t being critical, and I don’t think that anyone else was either. Knowledge is power, as the saying goes. There are quite a few foods that aren’t good for our beautiful dogs.

What a great dog she was with my kids and everyone...I sure miss her still after almost 20 years of being gone. We know you weren't trying to harm Gunner, it's really amazing how many people DON'T know about toxic foods for pets, I'm still learning new things.
Enjoyed watching the girls having fun on the snow and ice! Also, their willingness to chip in with the chores is admirable!
I'm so impressed with your girls. They reflect so well on you both and your parenting skills.
Brandi your truly a wonderful lady, don't beat yourself up I'm 58 and honestly only learned that myself last spring after my dog got ill and rushed her to vet said what has she ate recently and i said couple grapes and they gave her activated charcoal and it helped , I cried felt horrible, but id never realized so it happens xx
Brandi I’m 58 years old and I have never heard of this either! So glad to know! I have a big old Great Dane and a little shih tzu . The oddest thing they eat is cashews! I hope that’s okay because they love them!😂 Our little Hope is growing up! She’s helping a lot! And Hayden and Hadlee are doing their share as well! I hope y’all did well and stayed warm during the freezing weather! Lots of prayers for y’all! Love and blessings from this old Bama girl!❤❤❤
Brandi, I have a small terrier mix and I have given her grapes all her life. She is 12 now and all the vet can say about her is she has the best looking teeth for her age. You and Dutch are great pet parents and keep doing what you are doing.
Your girls are so awesome…I remember playing on the frozen ponds when I was their age…so fun…now I can’t even seem to trek the sidewalk doing the penguin waddle worrying I may break my hip..😂. We were frozen but loved it. Enjoyed listening to their laughter.
Wow, I never new that about dogs eating grapes. Though I never have fed dog grapes. Glad you posted this this for others to know. Thank you for your viewers.
Hi Brandi. I knew about the grapes but I said nothing. I thought for such a big dog it would take a lot to do any harm. I should have said something. There are several things out there that can hurt a dog. I loved watching the girls on the ice. It brings back memories with my brothers and sisters. You take very good care of your animals so never think you are bad at it. We learn as we go along in life. Stay warm. 😊❤
No grapes for dogs, no chocolate for dogs. Keep up the good videos. I watched them here in Pennsylvania all the time. God bless to you and your family. Be safe at all times Ken From pennsylvania
Oh gosh! Give yourself grace! I am 53 years old, have had dogs all my life and never knew that about grapes until just a few years ago. You can search for a list of poisonous things for any animal. You learn something new every day and it’s a good day! God bless you and your family and homestead! 💕
When reading the title of this video, I was scared the whole time waiting to see what was going to happen. So glad nothing did. This is something I have never heard of before either. Thank you for the info.
Well you learn something new every day. I had no idea that raisins or grapes can cause renal failure in dogs (or humans). I have never ever been told that by my nephrologist or even my transplant team.
Thank You Mrs Dutch
Hi Brandi. You didn't know about the grapes . Thankfully you know now. Fun watching the girls on the pond. Enjoy your evening.
Beautiful Pyrenes you have there ... Love and GOD Bless
Better be safe than sorry everyone makes mistakes but least gunner is doing ok getting big stay warm and stay safe y'all big hugs from Washington State take care and God bless.
Thanks to Hope.. she is a go-getter! Always willing to help dad. You can tell the animals love her. And Hadly too! And Hanna! A family working together!
Not Hanna
You are so awesome for telling us!! 😊
The girls on the pond was a hoot - loved watching them.
Don’t beat yourself up - I didn’t know originally either several years ago.
There’s also lists that you can check to see about food not to feed dogs. It’s all good.
You did great.
Hugs.
The girls are such good helpers. It’s nice to see!
Your a great dog owner and didn't know, we still love you. I always do research on all the animals I own, so I don't make mistakes. We all learn as we go along, your doing fine.
Thanks for the video. I worked with a guy years back, that never realized buck deer's shed there alters every year. He was 40 yrs old or so. We learn something every day. Stay warm. It has been cold here in Iowa.
Thats one hard and loving to the animals girl 💜✝️💜🥶blessings sent to all
Over the years we have had numerous dogs of various breads. All rescued from shelters or people who couldn’t care for them. On was a large cocker spaniel who favored treat was GRAPES. HAD HER FOR YEARS. Never was sick or anything and died of old age, again it was treats not its normal food. You guys treat your animals wonderful.
Great video, the girl's are wonderful helpers. They were having so much fun at the pond.
God Bless❤😍🙏
Thanks for sharing 🎉❤😊
God bless the family stay warm and safe
I believe it's the seeds that are bad in grapes ! Hopefully he'll be fine I'll be praying God Bless you and your family
Brandi, please know that you and your family are good people and you are very responsible Homesteaders. You are raising a few pets and a lot of farm stock. Most people that comment raise little house dogs that go out on a leash only. Some foods are harmful but not everything is going to kill a dog that people say that it is. I had a big black Lab that went into my Mom's house years ago and ate a three layer chocolate cake and lived to be an old guy. No one in their right mind thinks that you would hurt an animal. You are loved and cared for.
Brandi I am glad nothing happened to you dog , you are an amazing mommy!
I am so glad he is ok! You can resurch what foods are not good for dogs... that way, when you feed the pigs, maybe you can keep it from him. Just a thought. You all are so great with your animals! Love you all so much ❤❤❤❤
Brandi, you are great with the animals! ❤😊
Hi Brandi and Family. Love your videos and they are getting really good. Hopefully yall got your pipes thawed out Gunner is getting big and beautiful. Stay safe and warm during the extreme cold weather. The girls are getting big and beautiful. How is the Elk meat. God bless and love yall ❤❤
We didn’t know until our dog started having trouble with her feet! We weren’t giving her grapes, but we researched what foods are good for dogs with allergies 😊! That’s when we found out about a bunch of things 😮! I’m glad Gunner is ok, he’s a healthy big puppy 🐶 🥰! Take care in this frigid weather 🥶! God Bless🙏🏻🤗💕!
Thank you ❤
Brandi alot of people don't know. 25 years ago before I started.to work for a Veterinarian I had no idea and fed my dog grapes. Animal Poison control has a list of foods the can and can't have. Carrots are a great treat, broccoli, green beans no salt if canned, Cantaloupe, watermelon. Love watching you care for your animals no one can know everything.
Girls having fun on the frozen pond❣️❣️❣️Brandi we all live and learn❣️Stay safe and warm❣️
Gunner was trying to be helpful and spread the straw.😅 I've never heard the grape/raisin thing either. My roomate had a bigger dog that used to steal a few grapes from her toddler and peel them. It liked the juicy inside but not the skin and would very delicately peel the skin and drop it to the side. We didn't want it stealing food from the toddler, so we broke it of that habit. I'm glad Gunner was OK and thanks for sharing the grape knowledge.
Iam so glad you took it to heart. I tell from experience I didn't know grapes were bad and fed them to my always begging dog. Two days later my poor dog died. I was broken hearted. Felt so guilty. So thankful you found out before it was too late like me. Go DC bless❤❤
Girls take a long pole and poke the ice in front of your steps to test if it’s frozen solid. Be careful, you can get hypothermia really fast. Brandi glad Gunner is ok. Didn’t know there were foods not to feed our dogs u til I was an adult. There is an internet site that lists all of the toxic foods and flowers and plants that are toxic to pets. Might check it out. The girls are such fun to watch and what a big help they are helping with the animals.
So glad to hear the Gunner is okay. Thank you for sharing. 💙🩷🩷🩷🩷
The girls were having fun🎉🎉screaming is part of it LOL😅
Hello Dutch n family
Brandi life is a learning experience sweetie. We live we learn.❤
I love the fireplace heater. That will be a great help in a power loss.
I wouldn’t worry about it we all make mistakes. Great video thanks. Chris from England.
Don’t beat yourself up over the grape deal. It was fun watching the girls playing on the pond, glad it didn’t crack with them. Enjoyed your video.
