A New Newcomer



Hello,

I'm Manta. I've only been here for three nights. A little amazes me that where mom and siblings are gone. Here are just two big boys and another one in my size a quiet guy (mirror image). One of these boys is an old and wise, feel to be nice guy and the other is a more lively and really interested in me. Yesterday, we with the younger one, which is called to Mörri competed on who shout louder.
Just arrived to a new home


When Teddy and Mörri are now able to train more them together, I came to the conclusion that Nalles' age begins to press and it's getting hopelessly slow to Mörri. That is how my tough of taking the third dog left. At first it was supposed to take another male.


Beginning of the year there was once again to the familiar kennel coming this time as made conclution by their parents on the background of the energy levels of a working dog puppies. Then I still had not thought of this litter is the third or fourth , therefore, on taking , but I happened to open my mouth without thinking about more, and then this wheel began to rotate.



These puppies really were different than that litter, which Morri is: who is constantly on the move in the direction to which the range and took comfort in one's own mind assert themselves . In this litter sex ratio was four males and three females. All males were already booked and no one wanted to change the accumulators to the female dog, so I consider myself the choice of a bitch. We came to the conclusion that the heats are likely to be only twice a year. Nalle has not so far howled for the females, which have been known to have to step into, on correct days and if Mörri will be like his father, it will not be the case worse over the heat of the stress .

Newcomer

Hi there!

I'm Mörri. They told me that I'm gonna be company and the pulling partner to Nalle. It was hard to believe at first, when it just growled at me for a tiny things. When I tried to get up against the net between our kennels, it growled seriously and I looked better admit his superiority.
Just arrived to new home

After only a stubbornly continued getting on, Nalle warmed up to the idea of I'm there. I haven't received inspire Nalle to play with me, but luckily the hostess and host have played with me and used on some place to playing with other puppies. 



Hello again! 


About a month after the passing of Otso Sami proposed purchase of a new puppy. In fact, I wonder if that is the appropriate time yet, or are we already sorrowed enough and do we have enough energy train new arrival. I knew that in Tulisalon kennel were born Malamute puppies on July of parents who had the outer shapes as well as temperament  that pleasant for myself . Maybe it was destines decision in case where the mom of this litter had received some medication, which was almost to take her life and I asked from  one of my friends whether her dog, which I knew having this just one month older puppies, to becoming as reserve mom. Anyway, this malamute mother survived, as well as the entire litter. 



I asked if there would be free puppy of this litter and that we could be given a loving action home one of the boys (in the litter was only 2 males and 6 females). Since started selection process. Every time, when I was visiting to see these puppies, they mostly just slept. :-D This Mörri charmed me in an open and positive temperament: going on all the time with a wagging tail and spent a number of times on his back begging for cuddles. 

Mörri on the left, and his brother on the right.
When 9/20/ I brought Mörri home, Nalle didn't really seemed enjoy the newcomer. Sure, it still missed Otso and after all it had time to get used to once again to be the only target of the attention. The next day I visited  with Nalle in the machine bear test and I guessed right that it would had me eaten to the bear. We progressed in Nalle's terms and 10/7/ ventured to both dogs in the forest. It went really well. 

The first trip to the forest.
Mörri grew and developed on speed, and the growth curve went almost the same way as Nalle's. Then I thought about that Mörri will grow as big as Nalle, but now, it seems that he will stay to close to the ideal height. Just before Christmas, went the slippery road conditions and our yard was like a skating rink. Mörri injured his leg and it limped week cycle for almost three weeks and before the Christmas holiday, we went the same orthopedic vet in Oulu, as the Nalle on the spring. Reason of the limp he did not come up with any other explanation for the growth pain and week cure of pain-killer treatment ordered. Pain-killers helped, and it is no longer limping after that. 


At the turn of the year it was snowing so much that we were able to resume the sledge training. When Mörri reached age of 5 months we started learn to pull in harness. The directions needs more practice, but really a promising young sled dog it is.
