This is your little dog family. Kali the mom, she's the German Sheppard. And the two sisters from 2 litters, same Rottie dad, Kaya and Abbie. They like collecting bones from the desert as you can see. Wild dogs!

It definitely is for me. Still has its struggles but I wouldn't change it for anything. I love my life. And the dogs love it too. And they are key to helping us feel safe out here.

You've truly given them their freedom! Also, I didn't know you really live in the desert? How does your day pass in the desert?

No one around..completely isolated..no traffic. Complete silence. Everyday is different. I manage a little solar Bitcoin mining setup. #678708 Some days I am working on building things here..some days I am on stacker way too much.. some days I do little work in town which is 30 minutes away. My wife works online part time..it's a lot of freedom and time. Sometimes it is difficult to manage so much freedom because we have to self motivate. There are a few pictures of our 40 acres here. We call it moto mountain.#687032

Awesome. Must be so fun for them to go collect real bones.

Oh yeah. They find complete skulls, rib cages, sometimes there is even some meat left.. it's pretty crazy out here. We are hunters around this time of year. They sometimes leave some scraps around. The dogs love the adventure and finding them on their own. So proud. And we don't have to buy them treats and bones from a store.. great place to have big wild dogs.

Do they try to catch live animals or just hunt for bones?

Oh yeah. Especially the mamma. She chases everything. Not a ton of success, but she absolutely loves the chase. And I can throw a random rock out into the bush and she can find it and bring it back. Super dog..
