Kukka and Ilo's last litter born Dec. 15, 2007
Runningbeardog's Mielikki was born at 3:50 P.M. on Saturday December 15, 2007. Mieli, (said kind of like Melly) was named for the Finnish Goddess of the Forest and Animals, and was 9.5 oz. at birth. She's a beautiful girl, and we think her face markings tend to resemble her daddy Ilo's.
Mieli lives in a wonderful new home in Wyoming, not too far from Yellowstone National Park. Her new mommy and daddy live in a beautiful home surrounded by mule deer, elk, ram, sheep, bear and other animals. She will get to hike on the mountain ridges with her family, and be a great protector if need be. They love her already, and we are so happy to share some pictures of her in her wonderful new home and beautiful outdoor playground, a KBD's paradise!
