Purlin

‘Just happy to be included’, Purlin has always been musher-focused and a team player. Somewhere between Bumpus’ cowabunga carefree life and Buster’s emotional dependence lies Purlin—sweet, shaggy, hugging Purlin.

Purlin quickly earned ‘MVP’ (Most Valuable Puppy) during his runs for his all-out focus, screaming drive, and flawless manners. I think he has potential up front, but he still needs to learn discipline—the times he’s been up there he’s an undirected missile charging into things whether they are right or wrong. Purlin is always up for a game, and always up for a toy.

Purlin is a log home building term, from a brief period of time when I assembled log home style backcountry shelters. A Purlin is the long beam supporting the roof.
