April in Igloolik - Doggo Edition

With a cute pink harness like that I think we have a future puller.

More walking, less talking. A few days ago while getting photos I was also snapping shots of the dogs around our area of town. We only went about 4 blocks (it's hard to judge because Igloolik is shaped very oddly) but there was many dogs out beside houses. As far as I have been told indoor dogs are rare for the Inuit. I've seen on Facebook a few times that if a southerner takes in what they think is a lost dog, local people will say things like; "It's not lost it found you." or "you took it inside, it's broken now. It will just whine outside" As well as "Keep it." So, if you're coming up here, DO NOT TAKE A ROAMING DOG INSIDE UNLESS YOU WANT IT. 😎
