When Your Dog Becomes the Star of the Show at Music in the Desert**
Last night during the **Music in the Desert** livestream with **Advocatus Diaboli** here at **Ka-Hoon Campground** at **Plateau Hame De Colquhoun**, something completely unexpected happened—our usually calm pup **Vibria** decided she had *other plans* for the evening.
Normally, Vibria entertains herself with toys or sleeps quietly in her little hed under the table during the show. But not last night. She barked at me, pawed at everything, and made it very clear she wanted my attention *right now*.
Thinking she might need to go outside away from the leash, I took her to the RV where the other dogs were asleep. I let everyone out so they could stretch and use the bathroom, and assumed Vibria would want to stay with them.
Nope.
Instead, she grabbed her leash with her mouth like she was the one walking *me*, pulling me straight toward the pen… then immediately insisting on going back to the **music studio**. Even when we returned, she didn’t want to stay inside the studio, which is totally out of character for her.
Despite all the chaos, Vibria finished the show like a champ and even helped us break down equipment afterward. Once back at the RV, she happily played outside with the other dogs like nothing had ever happened.
Just another day of off-grid life, live music, and unpredictable animal adventures at **Ka-Hoon Event Center**.
If you missed last night’s livestream, don’t worry — more **Music in the Desert** shows are coming, and you never know which four-legged friend is going to steal the spotlight next!

Dreugan’s Journey: From Rescue Pup to Loyal Protector | Life at Ka-Hoon Campground & Plateau Hame
**Dreugan’s Story: Our Lovable Protector with a Gentle Heart**
Dreugan may look intimidating, but beneath that tough exterior lies a sensitive soul who’s deeply connected to our emotions. He’s fiercely loyal and protective of our family, especially me, yet he’s surprisingly gentle and perceptive. Whenever another dog misbehaves, he’ll climb on top of me, as if trying to communicate what happened. This has been especially helpful as Weillow, our older dog, has started showing signs of doggy dementia, sometimes having accidents indoors. Dreugan has become our gentle alarm, alerting us to these moments with compassion.
We found Dreugan when he was just four weeks old. Someone posted a litter of puppies for sale, and though we hadn’t planned on adopting, we felt drawn to these little pups. When we arrived, only two puppies remained. One approached us eagerly, but the other hid, clearly frightened. While the first seemed friendly and easygoing, the one hiding—Dreugan—was anxious and unsure. He nipped at people, clearly in distress, and I knew in that moment he needed us.
Raising Dreugan hasn’t been easy. He’s a 3/4 Husky and 1/4 Rottweiler, a mix that brings out his strength and independence. He’s broken my finger, given me rope burns, and had his share of stressful moments, especially around other dogs he doesn’t know. But with patience, reassurance, and a lot of love, he’s grown into a wonderful companion. Although he doesn’t show affection in typical ways and sometimes acts indifferent, he also sneaks in moments of softness—like cuddling with our new puppy, Vibria, when he thinks no one’s watching.
We may have unknowingly supported backyard breeding by adopting him, but we’re thankful he came into our lives. Dreugan is proof that even the toughest-looking dogs can be big-hearted protectors, bringing out the best in all of us.
