KRAKEN aka Neena
So that little peanut who is driving hard, well.. don't let her size fool you ! She is an absolute beast in harness, all business. No messing around, totally reliable and trustworthy and has now become a main leader. She is highly intelligent and soaks up the miles, the commands and the connection. What incredible little dog. Related to Gunsmoke and Bonnie all three from Brenda Mackey in Alaska. Outstanding work ethics, beautiful temperaments, fit and healthy dogs with huge hearts. Kraken is now officially a Main Leader and not yet 2 years old.

The Tide Of Change
Despite the problems of the world at this time, I decided to remain positive and focus on the dogs and their training. With no tours happening at this time, it is all about fun and training, banking the miles and working closely with each dog and developing some new leaders. It has been one of the best training seasons in years for me. More like the old days and I have been loving it, it has been soul food during this difficult time and of course with having to keep my tour business closed. It was pivot but one that is bringing many different rewards and I'm enjoying it immensely. With an aging kennel, I am seeing retirement for more than I thought would be retiring but I'm hoping for a while, the will still enjoy some short runs as they transition. As a forever home, all my dogs stay with me for the duration of their lives. Their senior years are my golden years with them, I wouldn't miss it for anything. While retiring from my team is sad on many levels, their lives won't change too much, it's more about how it affects me no longer bringing them on adventures and sharing many miles and memories together. It is much harder on me I think.
