mud puddles and dogs

we adopted a new dog named maximus, an airedale, to be our guard dog.
airedales are bred to be tenacious hunters of bears and lions. most importantly, gentle with little ones and protective. perfect combination for camp cuffe. been raining here for weeks, mud puddles have been our passion lately.
mistie and simon visited to join in the fun.

max, doing his thing. he circles the clearing around the house a couple of times an hour. gives an alert bark to let us know if he sees anything.

max is always close by keeping an eye on the action, checks on each of us individually.



max's favorite perch.
