Baker

+ more about the parents

Seven pups (6 females and 1 male) were born May 26, 2026!

This litter represents an exciting blend of Baker’s steady, athletic structure and Ghost’s exceptional intelligence and agility. We expect these puppies to be well-balanced, high-performing Chinooks with the sturdy bone density and fluid, reach-and-drive gait that define the breed standard. With both parents boasting excellent health clearances, we anticipate robust, sound puppies capable of excelling in both performance venues and as dedicated family companions.

What to expect:

Size & Build: These pups will likely be average size and build for the breed standard.
Appearance: Genetically, this pairing offers a wonderful variety in coat color. 5 of 7 are tawny with a black mask (like Papa Baker) and 2 of 7 are buff (like Mama Ghost).
Temperament: Every puppy in this litter is bred to possess the signature Chinook temperament – loyal, intelligent, and deeply connected to their pack.

This is a satellite litter for Desert Sol Chinooks with the puppies being raised in the northern New Hampshire with Ghost & Baker's family and Desert Sol assisting their family as much as possible, including the screening and supporting of the puppy’s new homes.

Ghost, The Pack Guardian

Ghost is a force of nature – brilliantly intelligent, intensely loyal, and arguably the smartest dog we have ever raised. A powerful and active athlete, she is the fastest of our pack, displaying incredible agility, leaping ability, and speed. Her natural instinct for "pack management" is remarkable; she is acutely aware of the location of every human and dog, and is quick to advocate for any pack member she feels has been separated.

While she is an affectionate, fearless, and outgoing companion who adores all people, Ghost is also a highly willful "escape artist" who possesses an impressive knack for problem-solving. Her quick wit and eager-to-please nature make her a dream to train, and her capacity for devotion—particularly toward her humans—is boundless. Ghost is a healthy, vibrant buff-colored girl who carries excellent hips and normal eyes, bringing a spirited, sharp, and deeply loving energy to our breeding program.

Baker, the Gentle Athlete.

Baker is a standout example of the Chinook breed, combining a robust, athletic frame with an incredibly gentle and steady temperament. Weighing in at a lean, well-muscled 70 lbs, he possesses a luxurious coat and beautiful, classic tawny markings with a black mask.

Baker is as comfortable on the couch as he is on the trail. He is the ultimate "goofy" companion – full of joy during a game of Jolly Ball, yet calm and reliable in daily life. His health is excellent, and he has passed his health clearances with flying colors, boasting excellent hips and normal eyes. Whether he is interacting with children, other dogs, cats, or chickens, Baker is consistently kind and trustworthy. As a proven sire, he brings both excellent physical structure and a balanced, loving disposition to his progeny.

Week 1

Week 2

Week 2 - 6/9/2026

This week was all about big milestones–napping, gaining weight, and moving! Goldenrod is finding his legs and tries to run, though it usually ends in a tumble. Violet was the first to open her eyes, and by this morning, the whole litter had theirs open. They are doing much more tumbling with each other–it is wonderful to see the very first signs of play.

Our explorers are finding their own styles at the milk bar: Mayapple is fearless with elevation changes and prefers to climb over Ghost from behind, while petite Violet likes the underarm approach, often finding the front nipples before anyone else. Dandelion often nurses upside down, energetically "making biscuits" in the air, and Bluebell is quite the escape artist–she manages to lose her collar almost every day! We removed the pig rails today to see if they notice, and Ghost has finally stopped making dens, which means our floors are finally free of the sandbox–like dirt she was bringing in.

To support their development, we have continued our daily stimulation exercises, including tactile work and postural changes to encourage resiliency...and of course they get lots of love! Next week will be a whole new world with everyone's eyes and ears open and the world at their finger...er...ah...pawtips!
