About meMiddle-aged dog trainer and gentleman farmer wannabe. Reads too many books. Spends too much time on the computer. I am a cynic, cook, gardener, hiker and environmental scientist.
About my libraryJust a cross-section of the pile-o-stuff I've collected and feel compelled to keep adding on to.

I've met people who've worked at McMurto. It's really isolated. When I'm in antarctica I'm around the peninsula which is where all the penguins are (except the emperor). I've visited Palmer station and also Vernaski, a Ukranian station where they serve shots of homemade vodka.
I married into a weimaraner family though we lost him to cancer this past winter. He was a particularly careful dog and I wonder if that's typical of the breed. It's not the right time to get another while I'm traveling a lot and my husband is working full time days.
How many dogs do you keep and what are your favorite breeds? Are you a full time dog trainer? Seems like it would be a very cool job.

Your member name caught my eye- I thought this person would have some good dogs books. I think you must be the LT mother lode.
I am currently dogless though have some good friends with a puppy which is sort of like enjoying a grandchild- you can send them home after awhile.
I'm always interested in reading about animals and the way they think and will find Vicki Hearne's Animal Happiness at some point.
thnx much!
