Malamutes in Waiting

Trumpet and her mom Storm are inseparable.  Storm is nesting for Trumpet.  And I'm sure when the time comes, Storm will want to supervise... but that's up to Trumpet...

(by coincidence Trumpet is on the left in all these pics)

And Grandma Storm.... more energetic these days then her daughter Trumpet...

And Trumpet the mom-in-waiting who is big as two barns...

Yes, Trumpet has two good ears and knows how to put them up, but we call this "sweet ears" because they are just showing submission when they look at you...  She does put her ears up, but you have to be very quick... or sneaky... to get the picture...

And here you can see she is loosing belly hair... this happens right before the birth...
