| A long trail to a loving forever home Nanuk's loving family shares their story below Kathy and Mark wish to announce their extreme happiness at the newest addition to their home, thanks to Tundra Spirits. Her name is Nanuk, and the allure of her gorgeous blue eyes is surpassed only by her sweet disposition. We have had the pleasure of her company for a scant two weeks and are just now beginning to see hints of what may be in store for us as her true personality starts to shine through. In the house, or in the woods, there seems to be no end to her desire to explore through sight, sound, smell, and taste. Hot or cold, wet or dry, there is no weather too harsh to slow her down. She lives for her walks and never wants them to end. As this is written, a fire sizzles, supper settles, and our girl snoozes in her usual spot on the couch. We look at her adorable, sweet face and are filled with warmth that has nothing to do with the blazing hearth. Once again, all is right in the universe and in our home. We are a family. It is impossible to tell who is more excited to see who at the end of a day of work. The moment the front door opens, the smiles appear, expressions of love flow, and one has to ask…who rescued who? So what is love anyway? We define it, at least in part, as the inability to feel whole or complete until that which is missing is found or returned. What was missing for us was the unqualified affection that we two lucky humans have found again, covered in fur and sporting a wet nose. Thank you Tundra Spirits. |
