My mom loves cows. She has all the cow things in her house. Cows just make her happy. Like giraffes make me happy. Animals are proven to increase happiness, health and quality of life. Sometimes giraffes are better, sometimes cows are better.
Luckily for my mom, cows are everywhere! Especially “home” in the Netherlands (never say Holland around her. Never!). I took a couple quick trips outside the family compound to see cows. Not just for my mom. Not just to take a breather from family. But to be with cows. Honestly? Cows make me happy too.
Dogs however. Dogs love me. My cousin, Sabine, has a dog. Diesel. Diesel loves me. In fact while trying to photograph the cows on the hill behind his house, Diesel saved me from the cows. True story. I have a video (below) of Diesel saving me from cows.
I’m a cow person too! Love all the pics
Thanks Donna!
Me too, we lived by a dairy farm growing up, once my mum was ironing looked up and saw big eyes watching through the window, one of the cows had come into the garden one watching her, the rest eating the veg LOL
I can so picture this!
And she didn’t think it funny like the rest of us children LOL.
LOL! I still think it’s funny!
[…] a sit quiet kind of guy. He is play-with-you and go kind of guy. I have one video of him chasing Cows away up on the blog. He was protecting me. It was sweet. He was such a sweet, good boy. My heart is […]
Oh Toiny, that video just caused me deep-in-my-heart laughs. I’m so happy you have that as a very fond rememrance of Diesel.
Yes, I am sure you will miss the welcoming smooches from that canine friend. Even now – 14 years later – I am teary remembering how our sweet Pippin welcomed us home for 18 years. How I miss her.
