Into-me-see

it's about minus 25 degrees, and I'm checking on how my dogs—Trond, Gabor, and Tomi—are sharing two doghouses since I didn't manage to build the third on time

In Greenland, I heard that you can buy Greenland dog pups for very little money, and if they're born in summer, you might even get them for free. I didn't receive a convincing answer, but a friend mentioned that one reason might be their readiness to handle harsh climates if experienced as pups. When I posed the same question to a lady with decent breeding experience in Norway, she observed that winter litters tend to cuddle together to conserve energy, a characteristic not seen in summer-borns. Perhaps physical closeness also fosters more accepting interpersonal relationships. I'm curious!

Fast forward a year, it's about minus 25 degrees, and I'm checking on how my dogs—Trond, Gabor, and Tomi—are sharing two doghouses since I didn't manage to build the third on time. I'm delighted to see my Greenlandic pair occupying one of the doghouses, while big boy Tomi enjoys the privacy of the other. But what brings me even more joy is seeing my Greenlandic girls, Torvi and Gusta, curled together in one house, leaving the other empty.

There's such a warm feeling on this crispy cold morning.
