to become a herd of like for example sheep or goats but it also matters when you have a situation like we do here with poultry and large livestock like cattle i was also personally really worried about the idea of trying to train two dogs at once i'd never trained a livestock guardian dog before and i wanted to make sure i was doing it right and when you have two dogs well it might not be exactly twice the work it's easily NUMBER_TOKEN percent more work than just doing one dog and so that was what made me have the decision to have just toby dog here on the farm as a puppy and start with only one dog and for anybody out there thinking about getting their own livestock guardian dog for their farmer homestead i would strongly recommend doing that too it's worked out really well for us i've been able to really connect and bond with toby and he's now my absolute partner around the farm and now that he's older i feel very confident in adding a second dog to the farm hey toby dog you know what time it is do you know what time it is that's right buddy it's time for your favorite breakfast time i want to take a minute and talk to you about our sponsor today open farm open farm makes an incredible selection of pet foods whether it's for your dog or your cat that they are absolutely going to love they have dry kibble they have freeze-dried they even have some great wet foods toby dog absolutely goes crazy for his open farm what i love about open farm is the food is humanely and sustainably sourced they offer things like grass-fed beef and probably the coolest thing about oatmeal farm i don't know if you guys know this but if you actually look at it you can source where the food came from based on the code on the bag you're not going to be able to say that about the bargain basement kibble but i know all those things sound great but probably the real thing matters is whether or not toby's gonna like it and as you guys know toby is a very picky eater he'll love his raw meat and he'll love certain wet foods but when it comes to dry food usually he's kind of a snob but what i've actually found is one of toby's favorite recipes of all time is when i take a little bit of the open farm kibble mix it with their freeze-dried raw food and then just add a little bit of chicken stock it drives my buddy crazy let me show you what i mean oh yeah you know what's coming with you
