Baby Jack

This is Jack~

He is a big, gentle boy. We got him last spring, he was cute as a button when we got him and we were sure amazed how fast he grew. It was no time and he had outgrown the crate we had inside the house for him and didn't take long and he was ready for the outdoors! He, very much like Nora is gentle, loving, sweet personality. He is our big baby as he wines when he doesn't get his way. We adore this guy! He never leaves the yard, does not chase vehicles (Nora helped raise him really well). Nora was already full grown when we got Jack so Nora really worked with him as a pup which was really nice, they instantly became best buddies. He is such a baby sometimes I think he would prefer to be in the house with us all the time, he just sits on our deck pearing in the window watching what we are doing. Funny to watch how excited he gets to see us that tail just a wagging like crazy. He really turned out to be such a nice dog, his added bonus is how big and beautiful he is, with really nice markings. If I had the time to show him I would, in fact that may come at some point. He does have Champion Bloodlines and you can definately tell this when looking at him. He is just perfect in every way.

Nora Our Female

About Nora~
We have had Nora now for a couple years, she was raised in our home for about 6 mo. until we felt comfortable letting her outside by herself. She is pure breed Norwegian Elkhound. She is our sweet girl. I have had a few dogs in my life time but have to say she is my favorite. She is just has the sweetest personality, with the acception of course when she is busy cornering other animals in the yard as is standard to this breed. We have had to rescue her from a trap set by neighboring trappers, she nearly could have drowned, thank goodness we found her in time! Trappers are no longer allowed to set their traps in our river behind our home. She ended up having like 6 or 8 stitches from that! Sure gave us a good scare!
Nora is very well mannered, well trained, gentle and loving. We are just blessed to have her. She is like one of our kids. She does not have a mean spirit at all. She absolutely loves children and the UPS man cause he brings treats! She never leaves the yard and never chases vehicles. The only time she barks is when there is a creature in the yard that she can see or smell and is not familiar with. She loves to be indoors any chance she gets (she loves being spoiled) but these dogs are most happy outside when it is like 30-40 degrees. She is our sweet girl and we love her to pieces. Can't wait for her to have puppies, think she will be a very good mother and produce some real nice puppies.
