Where, oh where, are the humaniacs when our companion animals need them?

This has not been a good winter to be a dog in Alaska.

Aside from the frighteningly "normal'' dangers for domestic canines ...

Dogs attacked and eaten by wolves.

Hunter looks mighty protective of his rawhide bone. Hope your cute little grandson is his buddy.

Oh yean, my grandson is his buddy all right. However there is some competition between them. Hunter thinks he is a child, and when my grandson comes, Hunter wants to be THE child, so sometimes they squabble over food, toys, etc. As for the rawhide bone, Hunter expects us to take it from him and throw it, that is part of the game. Hunter has had so much love that he is quite safe around little ones. Now if I can just break him of jumping over our 5-foot fence...

Apparently he is stuggling with learning the art of fishing.

PETA hates the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race.

Yeah, but most of the sled dogs love it.

P.E.T.A. = commie front group with a measure of queers thrown in.

Not a queer front group with a measure of commies thrown in?

Hunter looks bigger than he really is; half of him is fur :) He is much too well-insulated for Georgia summers, hence he sheds like crazy in the spring.

If you know a wolf will kill and eat your dog and you leave the dog where the wolf can get to him. What are you doing.

Yes, Hunter is quite happy when it’s cold. I can picture him sleeping in the snow somewhere.

Hunter also has a strong sled dog instinct. He wants to pull the sled very fast. And I am his sled.

Sled dogs are very happy when they are working.

They even smile as they are so happy to be running fast and pulling a load.

ShadowDancer ~ I have a beagle that looks like that. Only not so much.

6SJ7 ~ I have chihuahua that looks like your beagle that looks like that. Only even less so. ;-)

I have a bunny that looks like your chihuahua, looking like his beagle that looks like huskies. But much, much less so...
