Training day. Ignore wild animals. Leash walking ignoring all signs of wild. Well done, Kara.👏👏👏

A wonderful day crossing the frozen Lake Sils walking from Sils-Maria to Maloja. So much space, solitude and light.

Kara closed 2025 successfully. We had people stopping, watching, clapping! Needless to say I am proud of her progess during the past 2 years #Engiadina #Switzerland All the best for everybody. Happy New Year!

Mountains, wide open space, light. The play of light of #Engiadina climate left Friedrich #Nietzsche believing he had found the “birthplace of every hue of silver”. Engiadina shines from the inside. #Switzerland

Retrieve with recall #Engiadina #Switzerland

Also practicing that Kara walks to the left or right when we tell her (mostly gesture) to do so from distance. Handy when recalling her might not be the best option.

3 hrs walking in fairly deep snow along the lake from #Sils-Maria to #Isola & to #Maloja . The reflections were amazing. The in-between season: no people, Kara off leash for whole time. #Engiadina #Switzerland

Enjoyed a sunny day in #Zürich. Some appointments & food delicacies shopping before driving back home. Descended from the Julier pass when our valley was literally glowing in the distance a few minutes before sunset. Kara had dogholiday with dogfriends in the meantime. #Switzerland #Engiadine

Winter wonderland greeted us this morning. When it snows heavily over night, the world seems to pause for a few hours when the day brakes until normal life resumes mid morning.
