So I was outside with Buddy, Shiloh, and Tyson, listening to the coyotes howling when I heard some really, I mean really deep barking. I knew it was the beagles across the street on the down-the-road neighbors labs, bark was to different from theirs. I put the dogs up, grabbed a flashlight, some treats, and my phone. I had my camera in my pocket already luckily.

So I'm walking through the woods, following the barking I kept hearing. I wound up on the people next to us, land. I found a little old shed out in some rather tall grass, almost as tall as me(5'7), when I found the source of the barking. There chained to the shed is this absolutely GIANT dog. His head reaches just at my chest. Once I saw the dog I immediately thought "Anatolian Shepherd". I gave him a treat, showing him it was ok. He didn't care though he's just a big teddy bear. Hias chain was all wrapped around everything, so I got his chained unraveled and pet him a bit and read his tag. The name on his tag said "Orion" so I called him that and he got all excited, jumping and licking and yipping. He's such a clown. I snapped some pictures, gave him the last of the treats and started to leave when I noticed something in the back of the shed. Well it was already dark out, hence the flashlight, and the thing in the shed was black, so I shown the light in there and there was a little black and white goat standing at the back.

Orion is, I guess, being used as a goat guardian. He's doing a good job, the goat won't leave the shed. So Orion's pretty happy with himself I guess. Haha. I'm going back to see him tomorrow in proper lighting, try and get some better pictures.

Check out the pictures I put up of him though, he's a pretty dog.
