Jeffery the Guard Pig

Jeffery on patrol!
"I need a nap!"



"Formation, get in formation!"
Jeffery is growing up.  My little teenager (in pig years) is starting to defend the property from evil doers. 
"If I can see them before they see me........"
"Surprise is mine"
Jeffery is a good-natured beast.  He whines a bit when the food is late but what teenager does not.    He enjoys his buddy, Pumpernik the little limping, stinky dog.  The horses are sloppy eaters and he gets to clean up what grain is remaining. He stays in the yard except for an occasional raid on the neighbor's dog food.  He gets scolded for that.  I tell him, "Jeffery, bad dog, stay in this yard, go away until you show me you are sorry for leaving the yard!  He understands "bad dog" so I just keep that going.  It is like when I told the kids that  cauliflower was white "broccoli" and since you like broccoli shut up and eat it.
