Training's kind of come to a halt here, especially with the short daylight hours. Starting to feel like a mole, living in the dark almost all the time!

Here are a couple pics of Minto:

Minto is a cutie! I hear ya on the darkness...Hey, only one and a half months till we start gaining daylight! woohoo!!!
Not only that, but we have not yet seen below zero temps, and that IS reason to celebrate!

Juli

Beautiful pictures of your Peak. thanks for sharing. Weather in my neck of the woods this morning Dark clouds raining,snow now the sun is shining, this afternoon,what ever

Thanks Marvin & Juli! And you're right Juli, we will start gaining daylight in late Dec. so have that to look forward to.

Marvin -- kind of sounds like your weather's been similar to Fairbanks at times. Just wait 5 minutes & it'll change

Nice Karen and hope you are staying warm and the dogs are sleeping by your bed at night!

Take care,

Keith

Beautiful pictures Karen. Thanks for sharing them.

Linda

Thanks! Here is one more for you, with a bit more snow thrown in.

Beautiful girl.

Thanks Rudd & Norene! I'm having trouble taking pictures of her retrieving -- need a lot faster fingers or autofocus :-) A few months ago she was practically hairless, all legs, and all these funky angles, but just now starting to grow into herself. Fun to train & live with though.

Norene -- The dog in the avatar is Scooter (Yukon Slough's Longshot SH). She is from Bruce Mitchell's DC AFC "Decks" x Yukon Sloughs Tule Chaser JH WDQ. 10 years old already & still has no off switch!

Another great picture "BUT" I can do without the snow down here we are into our second week of deer hunting in my area and that means the snow is not to far away. anyways thanks for the picture's of Minto
