And Then There Were 5

Kanto, Kiva's brother, came to stay yesterday (Monday) and fun and games ensued for the first 15 minutes of his visit. 

I think that Kanto, a regular visitor, was a little annoyed to see 2 other dogs in, what he sees as, his second home then again Taavi was a little taken aback to see someone come running in to "his" territory, Jaaka just wagged his tail in a "Oh look, someone new to play with" style.

We kept an eye on them as they jockeyed for status and with quarter of an hour the pack had sorted itself out and the day passed very quietly.  The weather was beautiful, chilly but with blue skies and sunshine, and the 3 walks that the dogs enjoyed were glorious - tiring too.

Having 5 well behaved Lapphunds in one's home must be one of life's great pleasues, the fact that 4 of them are males, 2 entire and 2 neutered, says a great deal about how they can be managed and integrated.

We are very lucky to have 2 cover boys within the pack as Mylo's was the cover picture used on the first (2008) SFLS calendar and Taavi's is the one chosen for the 2011 calendar.  Autographs copies are available, please send an SAE to;

Kanto went home in the early evening and we enjoyed a peaceful time in front of the open fire as we decided who would sit on which sofa and next to whom.
