I saw blind Cash goofing around this afternoon, sticking his head through the corral panels in various ways. When I came back with the camera, he apparently decided he didn't want to look goofy for the blog but young and handsome instead. So this was the shot I got. That's blind Hawk on the left, Cash's "life skills coach," who's made a lot of progress teaching our youngster the art of how to be a successful equine in the 21st century.

The new contest started today, and yes, we are still eligible for the Grand Prize again. An organization can't win it twice in the same calendar year, which is why Best Friends wasn't able to compete for first place in the fall round last year. So we will be up against Best Friends in this new round ... no illusions about who will win No. 1! ... but we'd be thrilled to win one of the $3,000 grants for second, third or fourth place finishes.
Vote in the Shelter Challenge here.
Enter "Rolling Dog Ranch" and our state code, MT, for Montana, to bring up our listing and cast your vote. Remember, you can vote every day.
Thank you!
Cash goofing around but look at that face... I don't believe you! :) :)

I just love this photo, and the title matches it perfectly! The tilt of his head is just too cute as if he was listening to "see" where you were. And it's great you caught his mentor in the shot. I remember when Hawk got that assignment and how fast he got Cash in line. Is Marie still with us? I seem to recall she and Hawk were friends/pasture mates.

Young Cash, as handsome as ever and still with that wonderful sense of humor about life, too.
My favs are the "Blind Cash and The Zipper" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXgfW3Tvx58&feature=related)and "There's a New Gardener In Town" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9P412Tu4Do&feature=channel) vids.

Our little boy has certainly become quite the looker, hasn't he? I'm so glad Hawk has helped the boy learn some manners, lol.

That should have read "I have been lurking"....I hate when I do that LOL. I have read every single post on here from the beginning and you have a fan for life! I enjoy seeing what goes on with all the animals as the years go on. Thank you for all you do!

Wow, Cash has grown into a gorgeous boy. One of my favorite Youtube videos is of Cash getting his last milk meal. "There's the milk moustache!"
