Pets
Of course you can't have a ranch without dogs and cats. We have a full-time barn cat, a part-time house cat and two dogs that spend their time with us as much as possible. If we leave them in the house while we are out doing chores they are bound to get into some mischief as payment for leaving them behind.
They love posing for pictures and they know what to do when they see my cameral pointed in their direction.
