Description
I live on beautiful Gabriola Island and have a little homestead.
I often go for walks with my dog in the local forest. I attend Dragonboat practice. I also go to Kirtan.
My neighbourhood is very friendly and people often want you to stop and chat.
My inside animals are Hamish and Maple and soon to have Angus who is a lab puppy.
Outside I have Jupiter the pony, Spirit the mini mule, Sooty and Sweetie the sheep. Three mini goats Saffron, Cinnamon and Valentine and Six chickens.

Help
I need help with looking after the outside animals and taking the pony and the mini mule for walks. They are both young and have had some trainers work with them. Jupiter who just turned five can now be ridden, but still needs more training. Spirit the mini mule will be four in June and has had a tiny weeny bit of training.
The other animals just need to be fed and watered twice a day.
The odd fence might need fixing.
