Feeding working dogs

Thursday February 20, 2020. It’s 14 below zero here this morning and that was not in the forecast at all. As soon as it’s light, I’ll bring the guardian dogs a bowl of warm water with a bit of meat in it.  I learned that trick when I watched some sled dog races. I was very curious how they fed these winter working dogs.  Right after the race they got warm bloody water with bits of beaver meat. They loved it. So I put a little bit of the meat that the dogs will have for their meal later, but they will be very happy for a bowl of warmth that I’ll bring out for them this morning. Later today they’ll get a big bowl of red meat from the butcher, 3 chicken drumsticks, homemade kefir, a bit of cooked rice, a topping made of salmon skin, pumpkin and blueberries with a dollop of yogurt on top. Lucky pups.  🙂  

PS If you like the number 2 – today is your day. 2.20.2020. And our private tour today is scheduled for 2:00.  

PPS If you have ordered dryer balls, I haven’t forgotten you, but we have had house guests all week and I will get to those asap.
