Friendly Visit and Update

As the weather should be getting colder it seems to just be getting mucky here. We got a load of crushed rock and put some drainage around all the dog houses.
Also Shane stopped by again the other day with his pup Roxie, She is a bit bigger then Hera but thats because they are a month in the difference.
Demond played lap dog while Hera and willow got to see Roxie and Chip, Hayden and Capper were left out side and in the Kennel as we didn't want to chance a to big of fight.
And yes you did read that right A name of another dog Capper (pronounced Caper) who is a female Alaskan Malamute rescue.

Capper was born on December 2 of last year, We haven't had her to the vet yet so we are not sure how much she weighs but she is very tiny both as her build and she is very skinny as her last home held her sister Cyclone who seemed very food aggressive and wouldn't let Capper eat. They said she would grow up to a foot more but I think she will maybe get a few inches higher at best and put some weight on her.



Her and Hera get a long great while Willow and her still don't see eye to eye. So far we have kept Demond out of the picture till the rest settle in. Capper is fairly friendly but seems somewhat aggressive toward other dogs and about her food and Katalen, we will have to wait it out and see if its just from changing homes or if its a actually a problem. One of her litter mates was called Princess as well as there is Cyclone as mentioned before. Capper seems to really dislike Katalen and does not seem to want to listen to her, yet see seems to listen at lest a little better to me, much like Hayden and me/others. She has not been to the vet yet and I worry about her having worms or other issues as she has never been to a vet except as a pup and that I'm not sure of. She was re-homed as her last home was just getting to hectic for her to stay there, we have made arrangements for them to call if they wish to come see her at any time, and I look forward to letting Capper she her old family. Her nick names so far include: Cape, Teddy Bear, Gremlin, Little one, and I keep trying to call her Hera as the two of them have the same bark mostly.

Also my sled bag and the two handle bar bags have come in and we are just waiting for the snow. also Hera has a temporarily harness to run in, and Hayden has been ordered but we don't expect that in for a month or more.
