High above the ground they stand.


It is interesting to compare this photo taken last spring / early summer with the ones below taken in midwinter. It is the same dog on those photos. With the wintercoat taken off one can see this dog`s rangy, leggy, tallish body.

TUBBS SNOWSHOES





The new binding system on the new model of Tubbs Mountaineer fits better and gives a more firm and steady connection to the foot. With deep snow and the most beautiful landscape just outside my cabin this snowshoes makes it enjoyable to explore the surroundings. It is required however, that my wolfdog companions have long legs and an efficient snow-walk. A good dense coat and long legs are essentialts for my dogs, and have nothing to do with cosmetics :-)

Sun-day a day in the Sun


The temperature has dropped again and the mercury-bar condensed to a minus 25 tonight. All the dogs was permitted out of their fences to speed around in the forest and produce some body-heat during the day. A substantial dinner consisting of fresh horse-meat and a mixture of intestinal fat and liver will keep them warm the next night.
