“Everyone thinks they have the best dog. And none of them are wrong.” W.R. Purche

There’s still time to drop off a donation…We're collecting new dog toys and treats for a nice local dog shelter called Mn. Basset Rescue. Toys for Pups will end December 31st, 2023

Mn. Basset Rescue volunteers do awesome work, rescuing and rehoming dogs right here in our community. So far this year they’ve taken in 154 dogs (incredible!)

Happy Christmas Eve!

Here are some facts about reindeer we find interesting, hope you do too!

They can see ultraviolet light

There are 45 different species. They are found living in Alaska, Canada, Scandinavia, and Russia

Their milk is some of the most nutritious, containing 22% butterfat, and 10% protein. An average reindeer eats 9-18 pounds of food per day

90 minutes after being born, calves can run as fast as an Olympic runner

The N. American reindeer travels an average of 23 miles per day. Tundra reindeer migrate annually, in huge herds of up to half a million, covering as much as 3000 miles

Males are called bulls, females are cows and babies are calves

Rudolph began guiding Santa’s sleigh in 1939. Author Robert L. May wrote the story “The Most Famous Reindeer of All” for a Montgomery Ward Christmas Coloring Book. In 1948, May’s Brother-in-Law Johnny Marks made the story into a song, which Gene Autry recorded and made famous in 1949. Other names that were considered by May for Rudolph, were Rollo and Reginald

Both male and female reindeer grow antlers. Males shed their antlers in late Fall after rut, and females retain theirs throughout the winter until spring. So technically all of Santa’s reindeer including Rudolph, should’ve been females.
