Yakone′ (M)

Yakone' is affectionately nicknamed Yakkers by the kennels staff due to his talkative personality. He is an athletic dog, jumping high in the air as he begs to be hooked up to run.

Yakone' means red aurora in Athabaskan (the language of the native peoples that inhabit the area). Appropriately, during Yakone's first run in harness there was an incredible red auroral display!
