Storm Mushing!

Yes, I have to agree with Michelle...Wow! And you do this voluntarily? I am only kidding I am sure it is very exciting and invigorating, and you probably get a real adrenaline rush while out running with the dogs. But as many have said already, just be careful out there.

Tamara, I had forgotten about your Danish family. Don't know whether you know about this link: http://www.cphpost.dk/
and this: http://www.aok.dk/section/english

Thanks for telling us about the emergency equipment and everything, it's really really interesting!!

By the way, your photos and stories are fit for NG, have you thought of that?

I'll say like the rest.... Be careful out there!

Brrrrrr! I can't blame Paxil for wanting to head back. The view there is amazingly beautiful, but I think I prefer seeing your pictures more than I would like being in them. At least you've got a good winter sport to keep you and the dogs happy...do they actually prefer the winter over the summer?

A question: Who is the dog running off lead beside the sled? (Post #25)


Really terrific pictures, as usual. Thanks so much for posting the pictures

That's Daisy, my neighbor's dog. It's very rare that I get out of the yard without Daisy tagging along. If she had a better coat, I'd put her in harness with the team, but she gets terrible snowballs in her fur. She's in great shape though. She runs a lot of miles with us.

... and part time custody of Daisy Duke, the neighbor's mutt.


She actually lives about a mile from us, but she can get to our place without crossing any roads. She's allowed to roam and is very social. So whenever she hears barking or excitement at our place she comes over to check it out. She comes on every sled run, walk, bike ride ect with us. Most of my dogs like her and she's learned which ones don't. When one of those is with me, she stays right beside me and leaves the dogs alone. She's great friends with Chum, but they cause utter havoc together in the yard. If Daisy and Chum are in my yard together, there will be a fight. They start the chaos and then back out and watch the scraps!

Her owners aren't mean to her. They feed her and are gentle with her. They just don't give her the attention or exercise she needs. She gets that at my place. It's not an ideal situation, but Daisy seems healthy and happy.

Thanks,

I thought that might be her tagging along, but not sure from the back.
I think I've said this before but, I am so glad Daisy lives close to you guys.

These are terrific! I don't know anything about Huskies or sledding so it's fascinating to see the snaps and read the text! Could you give them skritches for me, too, please.
