recent dogsitting excursion with my fur neighbor

 

[TrektheWorld]

Me with my 2 year old terrier mix Josie. We did a lot of steep scrambles in the fall and this one was taken up on Greyrock Mountain near Fort Collins, CO. She was awesome! I can't wait to get her out and do a backcountry trip sometime.

Delta on a hike last weekend. She turned one year old last month.

Skotti is ten, maybe older. On this 12 day trip I limited his food carry to four days, but he's still doing fine.

South Block potholes:

I remade his harness so the two side packs comes off easily for difficult hiking:

Skotti has seen more remote backcountry than most people. Amazing he's still going strong. What a lucky dog!

If your pup’s grin gets any bigger, he or she will need a bigger head. That’s a fantastic shot.

She’s turned into a great trail running buddy

The new pup, Cassia. Since she came from Idaho I gave her an Idaho name (plus Bicknell just doesn't suit her ). I think she might be Delta's cousin since her dad and Delta's mom both came from the same breeder in Rupert. My son also has Cassia's sister and I dog-sit her most weekdays while he works.

What a cute face! Love the freckles.

Love how a gust of wind on He Devil made Mr. Gary Cooper look like a devil himself.

Some new friends I encountered while doing voter outreach in rural northern AZ:

This is our rescue pup Nala; she’s about 17 months old now and we got her when she was 4 months old. Tests say she’s equal parts Siberian husky, Australian cattle dog, and pit bull.
