What's a Push-Me, Pull-Me?
Now I feel old....... :rolleyes:

You would have to watch the original Dr. Dolittle movie to know what is a Push-me, Pull-me. On the movie, it was a llama-like creature with a front on each end...and no end in sight. Get it? Push me, pull me..... :p

I am REALLY old -- it was a Push Me Pull YOU!

My sissy has about 30 guineas and no chickens! She has many colors including: lavender, pearl, coral blue, dundotte, royal purple, powder blue and cameo. They are loud, but they are a riot. They race all over her place in packs!

Bonus since she got them she went from picking 20 to 30 ticks a day off of each horse to no ticks, few flies and even few fleas!

I remember the Push Me/Pull You from Dr. Doolittle. What an experience it would be to talk to the animals. I think we could learn ALOT.

I may be the weird one here ... but I do it all the time!;)

I also think I understand a large part of what they say to me. My dogs can tell me if they have to go to the bathroom or if it is food or fresh water they want. I know when they are barking at an intruder, an animal, for fun or if my son is coming home. My hens tell me they want a treat or just attention. I could write volumes about the conversations I have had with horses!

Dr. Doolittle was over-rated. But his Push ME-Pull YOU was cool!

I guess I should have said that it would be amazing to understand what they say back. I talk to them, too. I think people who don't talk to animals may be the weird ones. :lol:
