Tule Loowit Visit

Everything is always exciting and very active when Tule Loowit comes for a visit.  We can hear her when she is 1/2 mile away and Trask howls back in kind. From the second the car door opens, the dogs are singing and in constant motion while chasing each other around the yard.

Tule, Trask and Cedar

Tule and Trask ganging up on their mom Koyuk.

Even though the day was cool and overcast, the dogs overheated with all the running. The solution: a swim.

 Tule Loowit

 After about 1/2 hour of crazy Chinook tag, Cedar and Koyuk left Trask and Tule to play alone.

Their noise and turmoil is a too much for inside no matter how much they begged to get in...

so they resumed play for another half hour.

Finally a rested Grandma Cedar came out and joined in

 Then Koyuk.

 The "you are it" Chinook look.

Trask and Tule slowed down a bit after once again wearing out Grandma Cedar and Mom Koyuk

With her somewhat stationary, I was able to get some shots of Tule's tongue.

As Tule rode out the drive she loudly joined in the serenade sung for her by Trask, Cedar and Koyuk. I am quite sure the four of them sorrowfully howling could be heard far beyond the 1/2 mile drive.
