Dog Thread

We got a new dude to learn from the old guy. First doodle for us.

Doodles seem to be fun-loving dogs for the most part.

Meanwhile, other dogs push spheres through infinite space:

So we've had Teddy for about 9 months now. He's come a long way. He was so shy and skittish when he first came here. Stayed in his crate. Never barked, very unusual for a beagle. Didn't play or interact with us. So sad.
Much has changed. He is now the undisputed master of his domain. Not one inch of this property has not been sniffed by that nose. He gets along with the animals here. Actually they pretty much stay away from him. I love walking him more so than any other dog I've owned. Very obedient on the leash, again unusual for a beagle. He loves to hunt.

He loves other dogs. We visited my middle son Peter and his GF Karolynn in Ithaca and stayed a night in their new townhouse. Karolynn is a veterinary student at Cornell and owns 2 dogs. She was also taking care of 2 of her bosses dogs. Teddy fit right in.

So interesting to see a pack of 5 dogs moving together from room to room.
Most importantly Teddy has opened up and trusts us completely. Runs me ragged daily (I give him some credit for the 10 lbs. I've lost this summer). Always looking to play with (kill) his toys.
He's become part of our family.

We don't have much snow yet (not even enough for a chair photo!) but the ground is frozen and smaller ponds are iced over, so dog walking conditions are excellent. Today we followed some wolf tracks down the bush road, found a rendezvous site and went for a bog walk. Moira is a natural tracker.

On alert:

Sniffing a wolf bed. There were more nesting spots in the clearing beyond:

First time on ice (since we've had her, at least).

Edit: Beautiful. She looks like she's having fun.
