I have received a lot of wonderful photos of BrownStone pups but have failed to get them into the blog until now.
BrownStone Cascade Mt. Tule Loowit (Tule Loowit)
Tule had never slept on the human bed until Trask spent a few days with her. This picture was sent with the note: "
Guess what Trask taught Tule?"
Tule Loowit posing for the family Christmas photo. She decided riding on the sled was a much better option than trying to pull it on the almost bare ground.
BrownStone Cascade Mt. Pahto (Kyrik)
A painting by Kyrick's young owner.
BrownStone Cascade Mt. Karuk (Alaka'i)
My favorite picture of all. Alaka'i at the vet. Caption went something like:
"Everything was wiggles and smiles until the thermometer went in". A copy of this picture now hangs in my vet's office where Alaka'i was
almost born.
"Say cheese Alaka'i"
Taken earlier this month - such a handsome boy Alaka'i is.
BrownStone Cascade Mt. Klah (Luca)
"Thankfully Luca is really well-behaved and is welcome in the nursing home, so
she joins us on most trips. Everyone thinks she is a therapy dog so she pretty
much goes everywhere with her papa these days. Still working on her dog
distractions. She luuuuvs all dogs and is always ready to play, and play, and
play. May be time for us to seek out another Chinook pup. I think Luca has
confirmed that there is no better suited breed for us".
"We sure love absolutely everything about Luca if that isn't obvious. She is
completely tuned into my energy. I have to be very careful to control my
emotions around her as it really upsets her if I am upset at all. I'm a better
person for it, but my connection/attachment to her is a bit scary. I've never
experienced anything like it and already worry about life without Luca. Which is
why I think it would be healthy for both of us to have another Chinook
relatively soon. I would love to reunite her with her siblings someday too. That
would be fun".
Both the chicken and cat would be toast if this was Trask or Koyuk instead of Luca.

BrownStone Cascade Mt. Koma (Laika)
"Laika earned her diploma from the PetSmart Advanced Class. Even though she is
far from certification as a Therapy Dog, Laika is scheduled for an audition as a
Therapy Dog at the Coronado Retirement Village on December 11."
I can't get over how much Laika looks like her mother.
BrownStone Cascade Mt Mazama (Bramble) and Cedar's daughter, Koyuk's sister,
BrownStone Iditarod Takotna Muku
Bramble and Muku were "officials" at a Halloween Marathon in BC, Canada.
Enjoying the new fireplace.

Ms. Silver, Moonsong Mighty Mouse (Mouse)
BrownStone Rogue of Rain (Rogue) from the McKenzie's Christmas litter on his 11th birthday.
BrownStone Nala (Nala) from the McKenzie's Christmas litter on her11th birthday.
BrownStone Lupin (Lupin) from the McKenzie's Christmas litter is again joining Cedar, Koyuk and Trask for a holiday stay.
Note the well protected and wired-to-the-wall tree. I figured even if the four dogs didn't knock it over chasing each other about the house, Trask would surely feel the need to mouth each and every ornament.
