Let me introduce Cosmos.
For the first time in twelve years, we were not supposed to have any puppies…
But the universe clearly had other plans.
When I spoke with about this little star, resistance was impossible—
and just as naturally, his name found him. Without a single doubt, he was Cosmos.

He is pure magic wrapped in fur.
He sits quietly, eyes wide with wonder, reading the sky as if the constellations were his own secret map.
And yet, he is fearless—always ready to lead the way into new adventures, stepping onto unknown paths with unshakable confidence.

For the past 72 hours, he has been my shadow—day and night—curled into the bend of my arm as if he’s always belonged there.
His soul feels as vast as the universe itself, and I can’t help but feel he’s here to guide me—
a tiny star showing me the way.

Thank you, for trusting me with this piece of the cosmos.

Before I became a dog lady, I was a horse girl.
I spent all my youth in the stables and had my own horse in my twenties. When I moved to Kiruna, I took some riding courses with but for the last 20 years, I’ve hardly been on horseback.

Still, I’ve carried two big horse dreams since I was a kid: galloping along the beaches of Ireland, and riding Icelandic horses over the mountains.

Now, I’ve finally made one of them come true.
I joined a three-day tour with our wonderful neighbors—exploring the same area where I travel by dog sled in the winter.

About six hours in the saddle each day. After day one, my body felt totally broken... but my soul started to breathe.

No phone reception. Just pure nature, amazing horses, a fantastic guide, kind fellow riders, and delicious food.

Huge thanks to my dear husband for gifting me this experience—and to for taking such good care of their horses and running such a thoughtful, respectful business.
Extra thanks to our excellent guides 
Highly recommended.

Many of you have probably seen her—trotting beside the team, perched on the sled like royalty, or strolling through the farm with the puppies in tow.

Lumi came into our lives almost seven years ago. I had been looking for a small dog, mostly so our huskies could get used to being around smaller breeds. I didn’t know exactly what I was searching for, but then I discovered the Japanese Spitz—fluffy, full of personality, and seemingly the perfect fit.

And then came Lumi.

This tiny ball of fluff, just 1.5 kg, but with an attitude far bigger than her size.

The day I brought her home, our three farm cats—dogs were nothing new to them—sat calmly on the porch. Then Lumi arrived. With her big presence packed into that tiny body, she marched in like she owned the place. The cats? They fled in all directions.

From that moment on, she became my little shadow, my closest companion. She meditates with me, comfortes me, and taken on the role of an extra mother to every puppy born on the farm.

We don’t have a ”boss” here, but if anyone wears the crown, it’s Lumi. Every dog respects her, and when she’s in heat, every male is hopelessly in love with her.

She follows me everywhere—no one else on the farm can take her for a walk if I’m home. She is fiercely loyal, yet she melts into the arms of our guests, always ready for a cuddle.

I believe all our dogs live good lives, but Lumi… Lumi is living the dream. She roams free all day, choosing her own adventures. She comes and goes as she pleases, never waiting on anyone (except for me). She eats when she’s hungry, sleeps when she’s tired, and if the temperature is just right, she curls up next to me in bed like the little queen she is.

If I come back as a dog in my next life, I know exactly whose life I want—hers.

I am so beyond grateful for this being. 🐾✨

This guy just turned two not long ago… my first Alaskan Malamute. And he is truly something special. A force, a presence—something I can’t quite put into words.

Every time I look at him, my heart skips a beat, and for a moment, the world falls silent.

There’s a depth in him that I don’t think I fully understand yet. All I want is to hold him—and to be held by him.
✨
Today, we took a mountain tour, and he showed his incredible strength. He hasn’t been running much this season because of the unusually warm weather. With all that working power, he heats up quickly, so I carefully choose when to let him run.

But today was just perfect—the cold, the snow, the mountains. Watching him move, feeling his energy, it was one of those moments where everything simply made sense. ❄️🐾💙

Here he lies, so majestic, Salve the samojed

It’s his first journey into the mountains this winter.

The past month has been challenging for him—a young soul swept up in the chaos of love, enchanted by every girl in heat.

But out here, in the vastness of the mountains, all of that seems to fade away.

With every step he took climbing the mountain he grew—his presence becoming stronger, more assured.

When he is resting in the white desert, a deep sense of confidence radiates from him.
This is where he belongs.

This is his true element—strong, steady, and at peace with the wild. ❄️🐾✨

Thanks

Another mountain tour with Gry, the one and only.
This time, she’s supporting Yugh on her very first journey into the mountains—and only her third time running in lead. Gry has helped me train so many young dogs over the years. She does it with grace, finesse, and friendship.
I am so grateful that even this winter, she has stepped up once again to guide a new generation and teach them the magic of the trail. ❄️🐾✨

It’s always amazing to have returning guests, and Marion’s visit marked her third time here—this time with her lovely mother. On her first visit, she fell in love with my sweet Gry, who was just two years old at the time. During her second visit, I gifted her a pair of hand warmers made from Gry’s fur. This time, I’m certain that Gry, now almost 10 years old, knew that Marion came mostly for her.”

Den stora överraskningen är hur lugna och stillsamma Ylvas femtio hundar är tillsammans. Det finns väldigt lite spänningar och rastlöshet. De är tysta som om de var på gudstjänst. Ett beteende som visar sig vara resultatet av ett långt och tålmodigt arbete.

– Jag tror inte att djur är så olika människor. De har bra och dåliga dagar precis som vi. För mig är det viktigt att se varje hund som en individ och försöka förstå var och en.

Under en av sina många utbildningar inom hundcoaching fick Ylva höra talas om metoden Trust Technique.

– Grundanledningen var att jag letade verktyg för att skapa harmoni i min flock hundar och få dem leva så stressfria liv som möjligt.

I am truly impressed by this amazing woman. She is kind, strong, and incredibly capable, always handling every situation with grace and skill. I feel so fortunate to have her working alongside me—she makes my life so much easier, and I couldn’t be prouder of the way she confidently navigates even the most challenging situations, often ones she’s never encountered before. Keep up the fantastic work! .michaela

Meet Odon and Jordgubbe, inseparable best friends for eight years 🐾❤️. Just like Eld and Glöd, they can’t be without each other. These two have grown a bit gray around the muzzle but are still as incredible as ever. Last season, they were outstanding on mountain tours through untouched snow, navigating with ease and confidence.
Jordgubbe is the clown of the two, always stealing hats, gloves, and scarves, and never saying no to playtime. Odon, on the other hand, is a bit more serious and reserved, but he loves making his voice heard. We even have “bark therapy” sessions, where he and I sit and bark together until he’s satisfied – afterward, he sleeps like a baby. Two different personalities, perfectly balanced and always ready for adventure. Their noses are getting grey and after this season they will get a well deserved retirement ❄️💪🐶
