Aengus turned 6 this past Saturday (June 4th)!!
Aengus, aka Black Boy and Classic Little Red Corvette, is a ‘California Boy’, and at 14 weeks old he flew from California to Montana to join our family. We picked him up at Glacier Airport:

And he met his hunting buddy and cousin, Katie, as soon as we got home …

Brian “kilting around” and Aengus watching how sushi rolls are made! …

Out for a ride in the old truck (a 1951 GMC 9300) …

Wandering around Redtail Rise, getting to know his home …

Hunting adventures with Mark & Katie …



When he was little, Aengus loved to snuggle with big brother Sundance! …

And Miss Nala liked to join in! …

Snow! … Aengus’ first Winter …

What a beautiful boy! …

“I don’t want to wear my cone anymore… so I busted the sh*t outta it!!” 🤣

“On my 2nd birthday!” …

A couple weeks before his 3rd birthday …


Aengus loves to dig in the gopher holes! …

“I’ve got my eye on you!” …

“I found a bird!” …

The loveseat in the living room has become “his” bed! …

Watchin’ for any other 4-legged critters coming into his yard, with big sis Maggy! …

“Robins are eatin’ the berries in the May Day Tree!” …

Out for a run in a skiff of October snow! …

“It’s a lovely November day to be outside, but I won’t look at the camera!”

All tuckered out, hunkered in and snugglin’ with Dad! …

“I wish it was warmer out… watchin’ and guardin’ from inside just isn’t the same!” …

Layin’ in the snow on a sunny Winter day! …

“Did you call my name, Mom?” …

“Somethin’ interesting is out there, I’m sure of it! …

“My 6th birthday was a great day! Now it’s time for bed!”

Aengus has been a wonderful addition to our family! He has such a great personality; he loves to “talk” and run!; he’s more independent now and doesn’t snuggle with Sundance as much, but once in a while he still does; and he and Maggy play every day!
