Scout cracks me up….Chaos is all around him…Waylon, Mismo and Schmoe are barking….Dutch is jumping for joy….all the dogs seem to be smiling and eager to go….and Scout is so calm….kinda looks like he is saying "really…..1,000 miles….with this bunch….Quito you lucky dog!!" Nice looking Team….they certainly have the enthusiasm, and the smarts with Scout in lead! Go Black Team!!
Live GPS keeping us going, but these pictures really put us there with them! Thanks!
Nessmuk, Quito not up for a long trip with "yahoos"?
I'm hoping she proves both of us wrong, come Iditarod time. LOL 🙂
