playtime after their temperament evaluations



Boy
He likes sitting in laps and stealing toys.



Girl 1
She was very busy and in the middle of it all. Most of my pictures of her turned out blurry.



Girl 2
She's the lovebug, got lots of pictures of her getting bellyrubs (but I didn't post those, the other pups would be jealous).


Girl 3
She was frequently off playing on her own, entertaining herself and watching the action.

social visit at my sister's

(Girl 2 had an accident and hurt her jaw, so she had to wear a muzzle for a few weeks.)

Wintersun's Suka Sweetpea ("Lily" aka Girl 1)

(Suka means FAST in Eskimo/Inuit, because she's a super fast zoomie-er)

Going home to North Carolina

Wintersun's Sura Shakti (Girl 2)

(Sura means GREEN LEAF or NEW LIFE in Eskimo/Inuit, and Shakti means ENERGY)

Her muzzle is off now, and she has healed beautifully! Just look at that sweet face. We are so proud of her.

These pics are when I was trying to take a nap and she was insisting she wasn't tired. :)

Sura (Girl 2)

All groomed and pretty. She has a ton of coat, nice long tail, very sweet personality.





She is free-stacking here and I am just using the click of my nails to make her look up.

I did not place or stack her, and I am just holding the camera (no tripod),

which explains the background not being ideal.

Sura (Girl 2)

Going home to New Mexico with Robert.

Making herself at home.

At the park with Grandma and Grandpa.



Lovin' the Snow!

Wintersun's Sakari Sila Inua ("Sakari")

(Sakari means SWEET in Eskimo/Inuit, and Sila Inua is A FORCE OF THE SPIRIT-SOUL).





                 Who, me?                           Enough with the pictures, I the tiger now!
