An April 1st snowstorm created a great stimulus, especially for the new pups. Spring storms tend to have wet, heavy snow that hangs on the branches, causing branches to be in reach of young wolves. In this week's video, both Aidan and Denali spent a fair amount of time jumping at the branches and attempting to break tree limbs. This is great entertainment for the wolves, but not so great on the vegetation. Aidan has also made great strides in accepting one of the handlers with whom he had some fear avoidance behavior. We will be very slow in making this reintroduction of the handler, trying to keep things positive.
