Out in the front yard, Dakota would often stay for quite some time - just watching.

Dakota & Yukon, when they weren't playing, were often quite close by to one another.

I am SO NOT in the mood for these childish games...


Until NOW! 


Ok, playtime done, sleepytime now!

Sleepover!


Anytime is a good time to play!


Lokie thought Dakota made a good pillow.

January of 2006 was the end of football season again.
Both Dakota and Buck wore Denver Bronco jerseys during this time!


Lokie was two years old in 2004,
Dakota was three.
They both enjoyed sleeping on the old mattress that we designated the "Dog Bed"
From the Loft in the cabin. 
Originally the sleeping area was in the loft but it ended up being too hot so it was moved down.

Yup, I'm wearing a hat. Dad's hat. Whatcha gotta say about it?

Exploring around the cabin...

Spoiled? Who? Me?


Raspberry??


Dakota enjoyed the benches on the deck especially when the sun was shining. He'd bask in the sun for hours if allowed.

Chompin on a bone at the cabin. May of 2003 was when Dakota's birthday was. He was 2 years old this month.

On the bed, as always!

Dakota had a blast with this plastic Easter Egg in April of 2003.

Sleepin away after a hard day at the cabin!

Comfy at the Cabin.

Dakota's Eyes.

Relaxing and enjoying life.
What pup doesn't like a big ole bone?

Dinner was shared!

Outside at the cabin on the run line for some exercise!
Yes, Dakota thought he should be the one to drive, and we often explained to him that he couldn't drive and hang his head out the window at the same time.

This was when we were in the process of building a loft in the cabin, once we got the floor down we popped Dakota up there and he'd hang out for hours.

Dakota on the deck of the cabin. It was a favorite place of his during both summer and winter months. In the summer there was a cool breeze and in the winter it was a place to watch the chickadees flit and feed on the food we placed out for them.

Dakota sleepin on the bed...as always.

Ladie, Lokie & Buck under a makeshift workbench, they liked being under things or in small holes. I believe they felt 'safe' that way...or maybe it was just to keep out from underfoot!


Lokie trying to get over the gate that kept her out of the carpeted area of the house before she was completely potty trained.
