    each year so as to know them. When we have two goats we swivel them with a hoop and chain. We call them "kiddie, kiddie".
    The dog drives the cows out in the morning and brings them back in the evening. When we want the dog to hunt them we say "Bring them up" or "put them back".
    A young cow is called a heifer. If a a cow is wild we put a snaffle ring in her nose or a "Putóg" on her face.
