Omigosh, things has been so busy I couldn't write my diary. It was weeks ago now, but one day EVERYBODY from the Yukon arrived here on our Manitoba farm! They was all jammed into a big yellow school bus, and picket lines all over the place -- it was like just crazy! And doggies kept getting loose off the pickets or out of the crates they wuz sleepin' in. My goofy big brother LEV got loose one morning and went off explorin' -- Bossie was so distrackit like I never seen him before. Lev was gone for a whole week, and then they found him on the next farm. He had got porklepine quills in his snoot, the big doofus, and he was just covered with ticks.

All my fambly's in the HOUSE now -- my funny lil sisser Lara, and my bruzz Lev and Lenny are sleepin' in crates inside at night, and my dear old Mom Kolyma is Queen of the Kitchen. In fact, I don't know jus' how many doggies are in the house now. There's half a dozen Chinooks, and I guess more than a dozen of us Seppalas.

Bossie spends all afternoon every day building doghouses, and there's a bunch of the males up in the barn so he goes up to feed and exercise them twice a day. He's pretty tired when he falls into bed at night, so I cuddle up close and give him all the support I can. I know he needs ME special. 'Specially now that Tonya is so old and crusty that she won't give him the time of day some days . . . I could never treat my Bossie like that, but Tonner always was snooty like that.

I LOVE Missy Suzy, who cooks the food for all of us and looks after us so sweet, and tries to keep my Boss happy. I like to put my head in her lap when we sit together on the sofa. It's a crazy time just now, but a good time for me. I know I'm needed!
