Loki and Luna are my two little hearts,
my two little constant companions and my best little buddies.
Loki was born outside in a den.
So, he was born feral to feral parents, in October, in the far north.
So, temperatures can reach -50℃.
He had been brought into the rescue and adopted out,
but returned a couple of times because he was such a handful.
Sometimes dogs that are born in the wild, they don't have typical dog characteristics
that people are looking for.
I brought him home and I wasn't going to give up on him,
despite all of the anxiety he put me through in the first few years we had him.
And, that was it.
I knew that when it came time to get a second dog,
it was going to be really important that, that dog was one that Loki would bond with.
And that would get along with, and that would be a comfort for him as well.
Because, despite the fact that he is almost seven years old,
he still has a lot of fear issues and he needs like a calming presence in his life.
And, that's what Luna was.
She came into the house, she went to his bed where he was laying,
and she didn't give him a chance.
She said, you're going to love me,
and she climbed up onto the bed with him,
and that was it.
I was shocked.
They play together, they sleep together.
No dog on this planet can come near his spool, except for Luna.
Luna look, look at the trail!
Yeah, look at the trail.
One of our favorite winter activities is skijoring.
He has his harness, I strap on my two skii's, I have a harness, and he pulls me.
It's great exercise for the both of us but as soon as I get that harness out,
he's super pumped, he can't wait to get to the trail.
Luna, she's not so much of a puller.
She's big enough that she could but she's not really into it,
so I don't force her to do it.
She just trots along with us and she loves to be out on the trail too.
He has all of these little quirks that I think if you didn't spend
a lot of time with him, you'd never see.
And, it's really sad that anybody who gave up on him didn't get a chance
to see his true personality.
One thing that we haven't done before is we haven't seen a frozen waterfall.
And, so we are going to Tiffany Falls.
I mean it involves everything that we love which is being outside, seeing something new.
And, I think these guys are going to really love it too.
Lots of new smells, aye buddy?
Wow, oh my goodness. Look at how beautiful!
Tiffany Falls is a great hit.
Loki and Luna loved it, we loved it, and we can't wait to come back.
I can't imagine life without them and I definitely can't imagine not having
persevered and bringing them home.
