I could begin this post with some poetic, flowery prose about ending one chapter of life and beginning the next or insert one of the many common cliches about life’s many milestones. But nothing I put on paper could properly convey the emotions we Puppy Parents have all felt as we have concluded a summer spent raising and socializing Unalii, Ela, Ahuli, and Takoda. They have finally joined the adult wolves, and from now on we can only interact with them from outside the fences.
Last week I spoke about the importance of putting the camera down sometimes and living in the moment, but for this final installment of the Puppy Press, pictures are the best way to tell the story. The introduction process took place from evening to morning and relied on a thorough understanding of wolf behavior to ensure that everything went smoothly.
