Michel Andrew is well on his way to Hopedale; 6 March ticker shows his local as of 5:30 ish last evening. He is heading for the dock and grave yard marker.
Nice weather at moment but some snow forecast for later today and next couple days, temperatures will be warmer.
We are now proud owners [temporarily] of another K9. He is one of Siutiks boys, he has been nutured, is big, friendly, great disposition and smart.

Alas Upik, according to his owners, was always getting loose and then getting into garbage. He was often seen lopping around town, came and visited us often, some times he would accompany us around town but would always go his own way when we got back to our house.

So any way I was starting to worry about him maybe getting caught up in the pending round up of loose dogs as council hopes to hire a new dog catcher soon. Add to that; I had heard that his owners seemed to have tired of him and were talking having him put down.

So couple days ago we ran into him down town, I borrowed some line of a bloke and brought him home. Had him tired up outside, him being too big for inside, and we are a one inside dog family.

To form he chewed through the line overnight, but came lopping back when I was outside yesterday morning. Now he is on a chain and double line.

Had quite a few comments directed at us as we walked the two dogs yesterday.

So if anyone is looking for a nice friendly dog???

Many years ago my late husband brought home a female husky puppy. Her name was Shebah. The first 6 years were the worst. She ran away constantly, howled all night, dug holes in the back yard, ate my shoes, chased cats, fought with the skunks, killed the neighbour's chickens, knocked over small children and little old ladies. Never again.
