February 2010: NSHK annual winterraces at Grimsbu, Folldal
Anka competed in 8-dog class 16km x2. Came in third and last. First day with Hejira/Foo fronting the team, but Hejira was not in the mood or in shape and really slowed the team down. Second day she stayed in the car, Meg and Muddy was put in front and did a great job. A weekend filled with laughs and bad humor among good friends.

May 2009: NSHK specialty show at Åstjern - Brandbu
We took all 11 dogs with us on the 1,5 hours drive to Brandbu on saturday 30.5, and arrived just before the show started at 10.00. Jack was the first one out, perfect handled by Gitte Alhaug. A part from the comments on his weight, he got good critics and placed 1JK, 4JKK, then Zappa 1UK, 2UKK, Meg 1JK, 3JKK and finally Foo 1UK, 3UKK. All sunny and warm weather, happy and sunburned people. JP Norris and Kari Skogen from the Alaskan of Anadyr (USA) kennel, did tell us about and showed a lot of photos from the past and present life of this famous Siberian kennel in Willow Alaska. Åstjern was the perfect place for this kind of arrangement.

Desember 2007: Ozzy died
Sudden and unexpected of pneumothorax, only 6 years old. Most likely caused by an infection in his lungs. His death is still a mystery to us. The loss of our all time commandleader and favourite dog fills us with great sorrow and emptyness. We will miss him forever.
