Expanded family...

Just a quick post to update you on the dog status;
Since one week back, we have welcomed two new members to our pack of dogs; Trahimus Niklas and Trahimus Sven - two really sweet brothers that we picked up in Sweden. Our friends Sandra and Adam from Huskylyan kennel, where we bought Phoebe, are cutting down on their dog-life... It was with a sad heart that they let their dogs go.... The dogs are purebred racers (sprint-distance) and we will make every effort to give them a good home :-)

Living a dogs life - in the moment!?

Yes, yes - I KNOW I have not written anything in my blog for ages......! Weird how time sometimes just flies by when we are living in the moment? Since late summer, we have been living a life full of dogs....! Our "little puppy" Joey is growing, growing, growing - in the the video here, taken late in the summer, he had a visit from his brother Sapian - of boy, did they play!

With a quartet of sick dog, old dog, puppy dog, and a full-of-energy dog (Phoebe), out training in the autumn as been less-than-ideal! We have run the Dyck cart on the local streets, up to 8km... In November, my wife and I had a late, late "summer" holiday - safari in Tanzania...!  On our return, weather turned very cold and seemed stuck in the -10 - 20 deg C barefrost mode for ever...!

It is now snowing and we are looking forward to training with the sled...
