So this is why I like to live in a smallish town. And almost outskirts of our neighborhood. I have seen in our yard, of course squirrels and rabbits but also reindeers, different kinds of small rodents from small to a quite big. (I don't know how to spell the species in English) And of course a lot of insects.

Yes, a beagle I will post pics of Beardog someday soon and of I remember correctly there is one in my profile page.

 

In the middle of nowhere at Finnish Lapland. No roads insight. No people insight. Just silence and beautiful, calming lake

 

Oiva has been with us just over two weeks. And he took the whole family as his own. Even our Karelian Beardog has been extremely nice towards Oiva. So, everything whent better than we expected

Took me a while but now I'm laughing and wife at the other side of the room is asking why but I can't, I just can't...

I don't know (yet) about "cross posting" but I joined the community and posted it again. Thanks for the tip

 

We live a small city of Rovaniemi, slightly over 50 thousand people. Our house is at the suburbs and the forests are near. A bunny in our yard is a common sight

I'm going through my pics and making separate back ups from pictures that brings back memories This was taken by my second oldest daughter in 2019

Yes, but a total destroyer of the worlds

 

Oiva has been with us now for a week. And yesterday he started to explore our backyard. Most of the backup is for the dogs, so they can run around as much as they like

Yes it was, my bad, sorry. If I remember correctly it is written on a statue

 

I don't know much about poetry. But I do know this is my favorite. So sad but still full of some kind of hope

It looks quite wild, fast and furious but nobody isn't screaming or yelling and there is no blood in sight. So they are having fun. It's so strange how good the older one took "the news" when puppy arrived Edit: there's a video but I can't get the image/preview to show

 

Last november the sky was on fire. I've lived at Rovaniemi (Finland) over 45 years and I had never seen the sky dancing like it did on that night

 

We drove 450 km yesterday to get this #beagle boy. A new puppy since 2014. We lost 3 dogs within a year in 2023-2024. We got one rescue dog at november 2023 and now this little fellow. I don't know was it a decision made of common sense or a decision of the heart. Anyway, a good decision after all.

 

Actually it's Karelian Beardog. People in Finland use this breed in moose hunting. But she injured her nose and owner had no use for her. So she came to us in December -23
