Kotah Bear is missed dearly and it is hard to lose another to cancer

We still have snow but the big melt is on. And we have our share of mud and standing water. The snow will mostly be gone in a few days except for the drifts in the shelterbelts and in the play areas there is still 18 inches of snow. We had 49 inches of snow this winter so there is still more to melt and I am sure we will have some cold snowy days before summer sets in.

Our new Alaskan husky pup, Red Sheyenne, is here at the Prairie Isle. If she develops nicely physically, mentally and working ability over the next two years she will be used to be bred to Flint. A lot of "ifs" and things to watch before any breeding will happen.

We were told this pup was the feisty one or had more spunk--bring it on. If you want to survive among the PIDT dogs you better have confidence and spunk!

We are waiting for Torrey to cycle so she can be bred to Hudson. Kim has leased Torrey so the litter will be a Chatanika litter.

Cooper and I will be at Griggs Co. school today for presentation and then S. Point in EGF tomorrow. The Red River is rising very fast so we are praying the bridges stay open to get to the school in EGF! It will be a close call.

Sat. dogs will go for CERF exams. So again river levels are going to be a concern along with overland flooding to make the drive to Cassleton.

Live the moment, trust, think positive and hang on and never let go
