Let's see your dogs! This is Demi (brown eyes) and Mason (blue eyes), who are littermates. Their dad is a Siberian Husky, and their mom is a GSD/Lab mix. They just turned a year old last year, and they absolutely love living on 40 acres. Everyday is an adventure for these two #dog #dogs #dogsofmastodon #DogLover #pet #pets #thursday #animal #animals #showme #pup #pups #puppy #social #follow #homestead #rural #country #rural_life #homesteading #Homesteaders #farm #farmer #love
