Name: Coppi
Harness size: Purple Tug
Age: 8
Weight: 65 lbs.
Birth place: Lake Elmore, Vermont
Favorite movie: Life is Beautiful
Likes: Chickens (he got his first this summer), chicken feet, lots of loving, and chewing his crate up.
Dislikes: Buckwheat who likes bossing him around. Summer heat, and that's about it. Coppi and his siblings are some of the most laid back pups I've known (most of the time).
Name: Edd
Harness size: Purple Tug
Age: 11
Weight: 65 lbs.
Birth place: New Hampshire
Favorite movie: Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show

Name: Fignon
Harness size: Green Tug
Age: 8
Weight: 40 lbs.
Birth place: Lake Elmore, Vermont
Favorite movie: Chocolate
Likes: Licking humans, being held and hugged, beating up her three brothers and playing with her half sister and best buddy Stella. Giving me her grumpy look.
Dislikes: Staying in the yard, Fignon is our little Houdini and is really good at finding the smallest hole in the dog yard fence.
Name: Froome
Harness size: Purple Tug
Age: 8
Weight: 65 lbs.
Birth place: Lake Elmore, Vermont
Favorite movie: Monty Python and The Holy Grail
Likes: Giving kisses, napping on the tile floor, and pizza crust night ( on fridays when we make pizza we always save the crusts for the dogs that are in the house).
Dislikes: Heat, humidity, deer flies, and mosquitoes.
Name: Jazz
Harness size: Green Tug
Age: 9
Weight: 45 lbs.
Birth place: Londonderry, Vermont
Favorite movie: The Great Alone
Likes: Snuggling, playing with his toy monkey and his best buddy Koda.
Dislikes: When Buck tries to tell him what to do (or not to do), having to get out of bed in the morning.
Name: Koda
Harness size: Blue Tug
Age: 10
Weight: 55 lbs.
Birth place: New Hampshire
Favorite movie: The Sound of Music
Likes: Singing, sleeping on my bed (or the couch, whichever is available), welcoming anyone who visits our home.
Dislikes: Puppies (he's kind of a grumpy uncle), and hot summer afternoons.
Name: Krimson
Harness size: Green Tug
Age: 10
Weight: 45 lbs.
Birth place: Bow, New Hampshire
Favorite movie: Cats And Dogs
Likes: Getting her pups wound up, eating, and sleeping on my legs.
Dislikes: Fracking, tar sands pipelines and other non-sustainable energy sources contributing to global warming and the melting of the polar ice caps.
Name: Merckx
Harness size: Purple Tug
Age: 8
Weight: 65 lbs.
Birth place: Lake Elmore, Vermont
Favorite movie: Never Cry Wolf
Likes: Cuddles, being petted, chickens, and running in lead.
Dislikes: Buck being bossy with him (reoccurring theme....)
Name: Pacem
Harness size: Green Tug

Weight: 50 lbs.
Birth place: Ontario
Favorite movie: Snow Buddies
Likes: Running, playing with her best friend Fleche, eating bees, and sleeping on our bed.

Name: Pax
Harness size: Purple Tug
Age: 10
Weight: 60 lbs.
Birth place: West Wardsboro, Vermont
Favorite movie: The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly
Likes: Talking, playing with the young girls in the dog yard, and eating seat belts in my truck (an expensive habit!) Pax is the master of giving me sad puppy eyes to get his way.
Dislikes: Negative political television ads and 90 degree summer days here in Vermont.
Name: Prescott
Harness size: Blue Tug
Age: 14
Weight: 50 lbs.
Birth place: Ontario
Favorite movie: Slum Dog Millionaire
Likes: Hercules, flirting with any of the girls, running, running, running, did I mention running?!
Dislikes: Not running? Leaving Hercules alone, "I love that guy!".
Name: Ralphy
Harness size: Blue Tug
Age: 11
Weight: 50 lbs.
Birth place: Hinesburg, Vermont
Favorite movie: Snoopy Come Home
Likes: Being told what to do but he's an independent thinker so I have hopes that he might be a good leader one day. Being petted and given lots of attention.
Dislikes: Heat, deer flies, and his dog house in summer. Ralfie is big on camping out during the warm weather months.
Name: Ramble
Harness size: Purple Tug
Age: 9
Weight: 60 lbs.
Birth place: Hinesburg, Vermont
Favorite movie: Homeward Bound
Likes: Rambling about the dog yard, hugs, flirting with Pacem, and eating (a lot!).
Dislikes: Coming to me when he decides he doesn't want to; luckily he REALLY likes to eat so that always gets him.
Name: Stella
Harness size: None
Age: 8
Weight: 35 lbs.
Birth place: Lake Elmore, Vermont
Favorite movie: One Flew Over The Cuchoo's Nest
Likes: Spinning in counter clockwise circles when excited, dancing on her rear legs, and playing with her best buddy Froome.
Dislikes:
Stopping her spinning once she starts, being picked on by her three half brothers, and going to the vet.
Note: Stella is our "special" puppy. She was born with some neurological issues. She is doing very well here in our home environment and seems to be a very happy and healthy young lady. When she becomes excited she runs in very tight circles so it's not looking very promising for her to be a sled dog but you never know!
