Well, we had another super outing! The venue was lovely and green, and with the
hard ground it was perfectly suitable for the two pups in the group. Damien was
extra excited because it was a new venue, with new friends, and of course he now
has his beautiful pup to show off with! It was Anushka's first outing, and she
loved it! She was very happy to see Dakota again, and very interested in meeting
Max and Mara (and Cornelia!), who were all very friendly with her.
Mara has just about doubled in size since I last saw her, and it all seems to be
fluff! It is too beautiful - she looks like a teddy bear, just ready to be
hugged and cuddled. Max is handsome as always, and so very civilized - I'm
convinced Cornelia spikes their food with rescue remedy or something, LOL!
And Dakota... well, I am amazed at how much she has grown since I last saw her!
She's taller than Anushka, but is going through that very cute long-legged
stage. Her coat has turned to almost black, and she is very pretty indeed!
Damien was thrilled to see that there are more pups in the world. He looked a
bit stunned when Dakota gave him a playful bite during one of their kissing
sessions, but I think he's used to it as Anushka (who is a bit of a hooligan
sometimes!) bites onto him and then lets Damien drag her around the garden while
she holds on with her teeth!
Nicole and Creagh joined us too. They are still malamute-less, but planning to
get on in the future. The malamutes were only too happy to have some extra fans
there! Today was my Dad's first initiation into the wonderful world of the
malamute outings, and he had lots of fun too. He adores malamutes (always trying
to steal mine!), so being allowed to handle Anushka was a big honour!
Thank you all for coming along. Hope to see all of you again in July, or maybe
even sooner! - Shanu
and Damien and Anushka who are both fast asleep on the bed!
