Midnight swim

Tuisku, Leia and Thunder came along for a quick swim at midnight. The ocean was quiet and the beautiful sunset reflected on the water, creating endless hues of pink, lilac, yellow and blue. Being by the sea evokes the same sense of freedom as I experience in the mountains - and both places create a big calm.

Tuisku and Leia were quick to dive into the warm water, while Thunder prefered to remain on land as usual.
Tuisku decided to go island hopping...

...and found his own kingdom at sea.
I often wonder if animals, and especially Malamutes, can appreciate a beautiful sunset the same way we do.
 How could this go unnoticed?

Unlike many Malamute owners, I love summer as much as I love winter. Every season has something to offer and I believe our dogs are just as happy now as they are in midwinter. It's not the weather or temperature that is important - it's the magic moments they share with their buddies and with us.

I am sure dogs can appreciate beautiful scenery and had proof of that in the last couple of weeks in the countryside: Kita didn' t want to come inside for the night and preferred to stay outside on the hill watching the sea at sunset. She just sat there every night enjoying the colours and breeze and boats and sunset. :)

Wonderful pictures you have here, again.
