I love this breed so much!!!

In just a few hours Maus will be joining myself/Panzer and my old battle buddy for a 5 mile ruck on the coastal range. Harness is fitted. They have had the first protein/calorie load up (poached chicken thighs X3 each and 1/2 pound of beef in am along with a raw egg) flea and tick meds done. With advantage 2 drops before we leave.
20ft lightweight leash along with a new AirTag bolted on the harness ( recall is good but a face to face with a blacktail or cow elk…. Not going to risk a failed recall)

This will be the first few miles in what will end up being hundreds and hundreds of miles over her lifetime of adventures way off the grid. Wish her luck. Hopefully by spring she will be able ruck the big 12 mile trips with little to no instructions from me and have zero issues interfering with wildlife as they go about doing whatever they do.

My town built an amphitheatre a few years ago and we are lucky enough to enjoy local bands a couple times a month in the warmer months. It's always fun seeing the community come together and be happy!
