Swimming With the White Boys

Thor and Knut love to go swimming with us.  They don't really swim, but they wade in and hang out with us.  Smart boys, they know how to cool off while being cool.  Finn, sadly, would rather take off to run wild on the piney ridge to scare up coyotes taking a break under a tree somewhere.  Thor and Knut stick close to me.  They are good friends, and getting on in years.   We got them the spring I moved up here to the farm.  I knew I was moving to coyote central and wanted three dogs - just in case.  It's not fair to expect one dog to fend off a pack of coyotes.  I've never had a coyote attack, that I know of, in the six years I've been here.  I have puppies coming up, but they won't ever replace the White Boys.
