Einstein’s real name “It’s not a trick at all”, and he comes from the Shamrock Shelties line. He is simply the sweetest Sheltie in the world. He knows a multitude of tricks and has at least as many nicknames.

Since Shelties’ playing behavior differs noticeable from that of other dogs, and Einstein consequently avoids playmates who display even remote tendencies of rudeness in their behavior, I sought for a second dog of this breed. Jupiter “Dazzler l\u00fctt Jung vom Reiterwappen” (2014) moved in at our place, perfectly socialized, aged ten weeks. However, our two dogs could not have come with a more differing personality. Jupiter is a real daredevil and a power package. In agility he is at his best, so that I have to train signal control very well indeed to be able to run at a greater distance from him. As human-oriented as he is, he always likes to snuggle up to people.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”1986″ img_size=”400×400″ alignment=”right” style=”vc_box_shadow_border” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row top=”10px” bottom=”20px” row_show_on=”hide_on_normal_screen,hide_tablet_landscape” bg_color=”#eeeeee”][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”1986″ img_size=”400×400″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_border” onclick=”zoom”][vc_column_text]Here is another member of the Steigerwald household who came as a buddy.

They also graze and fertilize our hay meadows. Whenever I can spare the time I also milk them and make delicious cheese.

Although I had been keeping chickens for years, I was very impressed by the performance of the poultry when I startet do attend Chicken Camps. One student once said, “I feel ashamed in the face of the fact how easily we classify animals as stupid. And it’s only because we never really tried to communicate with them.” Chickens are great teachers who teach us the principles of operant conditioning in a very impressive way.<\/p>\n

The dwarf chickens live outdoors, the big chickens have a trail like our ponies and can switch between two trails. They are also supplied with organic feed from the region and live a life with space, light, air and movement.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_gallery type=”flexslider_slide” interval=”5″ images=”1988,481,473″ img_size=”300×300″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row top=”20px” bottom=”20px” row_show_on=”hide_on_normal_screen,hide_tablet_landscape”][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”1988″ img_size=”400×400″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_border” onclick=”zoom”][vc_column_text]A good 10 dwarf chickens, Sebrights and Sebright hybrids, and 20 laying hybrids, accompanied by Sule cock \u201eKalle\u201c<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0live on Hof Steigerwald.<\/p>\n
