Jenga and Journopups require chin rests. It's a medical condition

 April 2017

pls pray for Jenga, she has a rare condition where she can run 100s of miles but can't stand still and hold up her head at the same time

[PICS]

look how desperately she longs for a chin rest

[PIC]

she carries the weight of the world in her lower jaw

[PIC]

the condition is hereditary
her son Talese shows early symptoms

[PIC]

poor jenga
speaking of husky generations, that's her brilliant dad on the left

[PIC]

he is also Flame's dad

[PIC]

and Pyro's dad

[PIC]

they are reluctant half-sisters

this has been a thread of gratuitous husky photos
thank you for your time and attention

Hari and the Bees

 Guys. GUYS. We have a mystery here on the farm. There's some dog poop involved in this mystery, so I apologize in advance. But I'm genuinely stumped.  Yesterday I went outside and saw that one of our beehives was tipped over, which is really sad. The bees survived the whole winter until now There were scratches and tooth marks in the outer insulation and almost all the bees were gone. [PIC] This seems like the work of a bear. They're just coming out of hibernation, and they're HUNGRY. Plus, the hive is pretty heavy to knock over There's a fence around the hive(s), but a tree fell on it in a recent windstorm, so it would be pretty easy for a bear to walk over and--get this--there were two piles of black poop about 20 feet away that consisted almost entirely of dead bees (bear poop is black) BUT HERE'S THE THING the pen with the bee hives is also where blind sled dog Hari lives [PIC] AND the whole thing is a stone's throw from 20 other huskies who flip their

Dog Sled Camp (Not the same as Dogsled Camping)

 Mar 2017 So I tried something new last weekend and invited some astonishingly cool people to Mountain for the first-ever Dogsled Camp... I LOVE sharing dogsledding with people, and was hopeful, but had no idea if anyone would come. But then they did!! [PIC] The final campers included @andreapitzer @ek_johnston @LFarnsworth @Remember_Sarah @DriverWrites and Sally McGraw of alreadypretty.com Most of the campers arrived Friday night for pizza, dog cuddling, and prep for the next day. (All pics by marvelous @DriverWrites!) [PIC] It was clear that this was a supremely kind, funny, kick-ass group of women. Plus, we had fresh snow for the next morning's trails (whew!) [PIC] On Saturday morning, we packed up huskies and sleds and headed to some nearby dogsled trails, where we'd be setting up a base camp. We set up a dropline for the dogs and the campers spread out straw for bedding.  We'd be rotating different dog teams throughout the day. [PIC COLLAGE] We also had a lesson on har

Pyro the Fat-Eater

 Feb. 2017 A very special thing happened before our last race, an 80-miler over two days. The special thing was that one of the dogs got into the bucket of chicken fat (we dole it out by the tablespoon) and ate, like, half of it. But we didn't know which dog Which meant that somewhere in my time, one of those happy running dogs was an explosive digestive time bomb just waiting to happen. Tick tock tick tock tick tock [PIC OF SLED TEAM HERE SORRY] tick tock tick tock tick tock [SHORT VIDEO OF SLED TEAM] Ten miles, twenty miles... all was quiet.  The dogs were running great up every hill.  We passed volunteers cheering, children waving. But truth will out. There was a splash, and Badger puked.  But the thing is, Badger pukes pretty much every day.  He shook his face and wagged his tail. And then the truth came out.  IT WAS PYRO. Yes.  Pyro. Pyro ate the fat.  There was no doubt about that.  And the mystery was no more.  THE END. Twitter reply:  so like. was this diarrhoea while runni
