"Finally Some Cool Relief In The Northern Forest!"

7/8/2012

0 Comments

 
Finally, we have received cooler temperatures today giving some relief from sweltering heat & humidity. Luckily, we did receive some rain this week. However if the forecasts are correct, we are going to need more as it is supposed to be hot & sunny all week. It don't take long for the forest to dry out with this type of weather. With the early Spring and the low snow fall this past Winter, the water in the lakes & rivers are low for this time of year.
The dogs are certainly enjoying the cooler temperatures at night and are smart enough to have little activity during the hot days. They due enjoy the shade of the forest & their houses. It is important to constantly monitor their hydration & keep them well watered. With the heat/humidity the House Flies are back attacking their ears. This seems to be about a month early. Thankfully with the use of Swat, I am able to keep the flies from bothering the dogs.
On a cooler note, over the next few weeks, I am going to introduce the team for this upcoming season. Above are this years rookies: Halona, Hurit (impossible to get her to stand still for a good photo), Hinto & Hok'ee. These dogs are all one year old (Yearlings) and this will be their first year training/racing. All these dogs had some harness training in the Spring. However, running in a team will be a new experience for them.
Until next week.........
