WoW! Great pics! very cute!
I have a very very hard time getting Thunder in the house from September until about May. Wherever it's colder he wants to be. If there's snow on the ground it's nearly impossible to get him inside. In the summers he likes to sleep outside at night, but spends the days inside in the AC. A trick I learned from when I had a Samoyed is to fill up empty 2 liter soda bottles with water and freeze them, then wrap them in duct tape, making sure that the caps are secure. Both Thunder and NIkki will sleep with them and/or lie around next to them to keep cool in the summers. Right now thunder looks like a junk yard dog because I think he's slept in the house maybe a handful of times in the last month or so. I have to take him to the groomer this weekend and get him cleaned up.... Nikki is a princess however and has to sleep in the house

I'm praying that she keeps it up, and doesn't adopt Thunders "I have to be outside ALL the time" habit.
