So as mentioned my dog was sick the other night and let her out and Pua smelled the fresh air and came over, so let her out and she didnt care it was cold. Just went charging across the frozen grass so last night I let her out again. It wasn't quite as cold either.
Charging along
Determined anteater
Yeah we still have some leaves behind the house
Even the hard frozen snow didn't stop her.
Not phased at all. Might be the only time you'll ever see a tamandua in the snow.
Didn't let her stay out very long not wanting her to get chilled. So I took her inside and...(TBC)
... and put a parka on her. :lol:
Ahhh What's going on?
"hey now this is nice"
looky how her eyes reflect the purple!
Does this parka make me look fat?
The anteaters go marching one by one..
She doesn't mind clothes any more than she does her harness
"I can't find any ants"
anteater in snow in Parka, doesn't get much better
She walked across there all on her own didn't put her on it.
I missed the perfect shot though. One time she was going across and stood up to sniff the air and I had put the camera down because it said the batteries were dead but it worked again later. Just looked like such a great shot and missed it. Anteater in snow in parka standing up and looking oh so cute!
Oh no we lost her head
Behind the house again
interesting eye color again if you look at it really large
I sewed that clip on the back for the dogs so I didn't need to dig under to clip a leash. They hate the parka though. Pua didn't really mind

Hi!
I put the link of your blog in my blog, I don't want to miss Pua's adventures!
What does Pua eat normally? Do you give her ants and insects or in captivity do anteaters eat special food?

She eats a special food mix.

She does enjoy ants when she or I can find them. I just splurged and ordered some freeze dried ants. I just had to they'll be great training treats. There's just nothing else she gets really excited about. Not even honey. Sometimes she wants honey sometimes she ignores it. We find an ant and she's sniffing around looking for more for quite awhile.
