Cool. Those are some hairy things out there 
Fall landscape is beautiful -- are you and Pudden ready for winter?

Pudden's hike in the mountains
It was a lovely warm fall day here last Saturday and the recently de-quilled Pud went on a hike in the mountains with Mama.
On the way home, we observed a herd of muskoxen from the car

I'd say the Pud won the game of king of the mountain, except she's the queen Is she leashed when you spot the musk oxen? I would imagine she'd get a chilly reception from those new friends, too!

Beautiful photos! I really like the first one. Looks like she is enjoying herself, just taking it all in.
Thanks for sharing

Thanks all
these hills are just a few miles from our house; we'll have snow soon enough, but fall is my favorite time of year

this is in Nome, on the Seward Peninsula in western Alaska
nah, fortunately, there are no bumps left from her quill incident
An imgainary mouse. All I have to do is point at a patch of ground and make excited noises, and the Pudden is convinced she needs to dig there. Works every time. Doesn't say much about her intelligence, maybe
Oh yeah, when muskoxen are near, I put her on her 100-foot running leash. We had a few, ahem, incidents, where she thought she had to go round them up. We can handle porcupine quills, but when I have to start pulling muskox horns out of her butt, we'll be in trouble.
Awesome pictures! My breath was taken away with all the colors when I visited Alaska a couple weeks ago. Your pictures show them all so well. Have you seen any moose lately? If you do scare them over the Wasilla way will you? My husband is hunting there.
