Ta-Kari Tamaskans, Colorado, USA

WOW ... Can't believe it's October already.  We had snow in Colorado Springs in September ... going to be a cold, long winter.  But, I don't mind it.  The dogs are doing great!  Takeia is still my submissive girl ... and a chicken. Although she tries at times to 'dominate' Dakari ... Dog behaviour; that's good! 

We had a close call with Dakari about 2 weeks ago with him getting out the yard.  Long story short, and an answer to prayers, he was 'led to us' (really) ... only one block north of my street, but across the 4-lane road.  My dad was knocking doors and handing out flyers, and the first door he knocked, the lady said "that dog over there looks just like this one".  Dakari had just rounded the corner and was one house away from my dad (a street he wasn't even going to go down).  What a day!  I haven't freaked and sobbed like that in 15 years (I can tell you the exact last time).  I had Takeia with me, and Dakari was so happy to see her!!!  He was uninjured (some sore paws) and VERY tired.  WE had some nice neighborhood support too in looking for him.  Turns out, he found us!

Dakari is as tall as Takeia, but not as long.  He is only 10 months, and being raw fed will take longer to reach full growth.  He'll be a big boy.  But he looks like is grandfather Magnus to me .. nice head shape and ears.

Been busy doing other things, and our big project will be done in the next two weeks.  So, I'll keep you updated!
