Re: The thing about Jack Russells..The Official VNA Dogs Thr

I have had pneumonia and not able to get Bridgit and Indy out like I want to and Bridgit has been acting out. She has been running down off the tundra into the village with Indy following. Now I have to fly out this morning with him for an emergency Vet visit. We are on the morning flight and we don...

Re: Pornstar teacher sacked, what a surprise! (NOT!)

That statement in our contracts "Good moral character" is a way to get around to firing a person who is also gay, not to long ago if a person was cohabiting and not married (living in sing) could be dismissed. Anyone in an alternate life style is on the chopping block if found out. They ne...

Re: The thing about Jack Russells..The Official VNA Dogs Thr

Did you give Dike some food? When we (neighbor/coworker) came into the village (August) Dike was running around free and when he came up to us we noticed that his chain was embedded in his neck. I had promised my mom I would not get into trouble this time. Coworker who worked at the school in the e...

Re: The thing about Jack Russells..The Official VNA Dogs Thr

Come on up Vicky. There are many looks to Alaska most people think of the beautiful southeast part. That is where most people vacation or they go all the way to Barrow the top of the world. Personally I do not find Barrow a very pretty place and I am glad I did not get the job there. Where I am is p...

Re: The thing about Jack Russells..The Official VNA Dogs Thr

The Inupiaq people of this village really don't care for their dogs, but these are not sled dogs. They are chained up outside with little to no human interaction and hopefully sometimes get fed. Most do have a doghouse of some kind. It is hard for me to walk through the village. All the places I hav...

Re: The thing about Jack Russells..The Official VNA Dogs Thr

One of my goals was to get a position in a village that the race went through, but those districts only one I would work for. The race has alternating routes each year not sure why. Last year in my geography class I did a unit on the race and we followed the race. The web site has cool stuff for tea...

Re: The thing about Jack Russells..The Official VNA Dogs Thr

I just can't image having to put boots on a sled dog team. Those dogs are so excited and bouncing around ready to go. I use to get Bridgit's boots by go around picking them up on the trail after mushers had been out practicing, but those boots were so big on her. Now I just order them and get the xs...

Re: AEE 2017

Everyone has been so sick. I have been sick since returning to the Arctic. Yesterday I actually was able to stay out for an hour with the dogs and do a somewhat decent walk. We are having a heat wave (temp above zero, but still single digit). I even attempted to take photos. Hopefully this summer I ...

Re: The thing about Jack Russells..The Official VNA Dogs Thr

I have been sick since returning to the Arctic so pups have not been getting out much. Bridgit has been misbehaving and taking detours. A neighbor threw out what looks like caribou stew and she just keeps going to eat and chewing on the ice. One night she took me on a detour between houses and deep ...

What a difference a few days makes, it's -15C here now and they say it's going to be above 0 by Monday!!! :460: Walt I'm near High Level, just east of there, Northern Alberta can be a really cold place. So when the western US gets really cold, they can thank us for sharing that :nanah: Thanks Julie...

Dave and Vicky

Family first you guys make sure you also take care of yourself and especially your mother. As someone who just recently dealt with hospice for my father anyway make sure your mother takes care of herself.

Congratulations on your new adventure. Will you still have cam shows? Although I cannot see cam shows right now (and I am kicking myself for not catching one in Dec) I would still like to see shows in the summer.
