Today was depressingly warm. My Dad and I spent the evening working on a doghouse for Calypso. If you read my earlier post, A Tour Of Wolf Moon, you’ll know that the dog shelter I have is a small building-like structure where all the dogs can sleep (or play or tussle). Calypso has never had a doghouse. The closest she has come is her indoor crate where she sleeps most nights. However, when I take her to Alaska, she is going to have to learn to use a doghouse. And I want her to learn to use one BEFORE we get up there.

So that is why we are building this house. It’s made out of a 4X8 sheet of plywood, following the directions in the book Skijor With Your Dog. Hopefully it will be finished in the next few days.
