Moving places

We'll soon be moving our blog and website to a new address, with a fresh new design. Until the move has been completed we'll be taking a break from the blog. Here's a quick report from our recent packing trip with Thunder, Tuisku and Gem; We had a great time hiking on the Norwegian island of Senja, even though it rained practically every day. Regardless of weather, Norway is still one of the most beautiful places on earth. Below are a few photos from our trip, more pictures will be published when we move to our new website.

Backpacking on the rugged island of Senja.

After completing the hike we visited a secret island off the coast.

Thunder found the remains of a whale on the beach.

A coral island with paradise beaches north of the Arctic Circle. Is it really possible?

Anything is possible. Hope to see you soon at our new website!  :-)

Waiting...

We're all packed and ready to go hiking...if only the rain would stop!

August nights

After saying goodnight to the dogs I noticed that it's starting to get dark again....time to snuggle up with a good book and a cup of tea!     

Country living

I've had a natural break from the blog since we haven't been doing much lately (apart from less interesting stuff, such as constructing more kennels and helping my mom move into her new home). It's been a sunny and dry summer here on the coast and most of the time it's been too warm to involve the dogs in any working activities. Instead we've been taking it easy at home, enjoying quality time with the family.

Since we live in the countryside and have farms nearby it's important that our dogs behave well around livestock. Our neighbour's horses sometimes come wandering into our yard, making everybody very excited. Having lived in Lapland, our Malamutes are more used to reindeers than horses and cattle...

This handsome guy lives in the village. We haven't said hello to him personally but I don't think it's necessary,
our dogs seem to have plenty of respect for Mr Goat.

His kids are very cute and cuddly, especially this one who has been raised on the bottle.

We still have a couple of weeks left of our holiday and are heading up north to do some hiking in the mountains.
See you later!
