Dog Cam
Some of you may have heard that I had surgery recently and have been laid up around the house. Michael installed a couple of surveillance cameras downstairs (really cheap from Sam’s Club). So now, instead of racing up and down the stairs to see what the dogs are up to, I can monitor them on the TV when upstairs! Complete with sound! I’ve been able to save a lot of things (my desk, my computer, the cameras, plastic airline kennels) from getting chewed up by Clifford, since I can now catch him in the act. Here’s a shot of what my office looks like on-screen (clockwise, Snorri on HIS Kuranda bed, Forest entering the room, Blackie on the floor, BamBam under the desk).
Below, the second camera catches Forest, Glacier, Walker, Cliffie looking for trouble. Bootsie and Winter are on the Kuranda beds. PS: We had plenty of pretty dogbeds, the fluffy pillow-type with fancy fabrics — all of which were destroyed during the week I spent in the hospital. Guess they had some anxiety. They have not tried to destroy the Kuranda beds, yet.
Snorri Our New Addition
Snorri is a 10 year old sled dog from Nenana. He was left at the animal shelter with 3 of his friends. When they wound up on the euthanasia list, I took Snorri home. He is a real gentleman, terrific with everyone and well-behaved in the house. He is intelligent, and sometimes a little stubborn 
Snorri is still very spry and can even run lead! At the moment he is recovering from neuter surgery.
