Belated Happy Lunar New Year, Everyone. According to the Chinese calendar it is the year 4617 – Year of the Dog. Earth Dog, actually, as opposed to Fire Dog, Water Dog, and so on but I will leave that for another time. Of course, the happy Malamute above is a Snow Dog but snow doesn’t figure into the reckoning of the Chinese calendar.
Malamutes figure into MY calendar, however, because big dogs have been totems in our family for generations. Big dogs…AND Cats, big and small.
The Malamute above is from the Polaris Alaskan Malamute Rescue group of Colorado.
More to come later I hope. Right now, we still have to contend with an old time winter here. Even hardened, long time prairie types are looking forward to Spring. They brighten when I tell them that today (March 1) is actually the beginning of meteorological Spring….
Safe and fruitful practise, Everyone.
