Declaration of Independence
On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence, announcing the colonies’ separation from Great Britain. We celebrate that event with Independence Day here in the United States. We hope that your holiday is safe, with family and friends, and festive.
One of the traditions of Independence Day is a picnic. And no picnic is complete without Watermelon. Certain Siberian Huskies, say like Dave over at the Army of Four, are known for their love of watermelon. But what about The Herd Annex?
Treat formation has been called!
Hmmmm, this doesn’t smell like our usual treat.
Tartok took his watermelon ball into the dining room for closer inspection.
And then decided it tasted pretty good after all.
Mmmmmmm – rug licking good.

His books pay for our food!
We’ll have to try watermelon at our house! It looks like something we could really get into!
Happy Independence Day! Hope you and yours had a fantastically fun time at your picnic and lots of food dropped for you pups! ;->
I have yet to taste watermelon but I think after seeing how much Tartok enjoyed it my human is willing to let me have a nibble.

All of my huskies I’ve had have went nuts over watermelon. They didn’t even hesitate, just munching it straight down lol.
Happy 4th of July
Stop on by for a visit

Happy Independence Day! I have never tried watermelon.
Sam loves watermelon – although, Monty thinks we are trying to poison him.

Wah, you guys get watermelon on Independence Day. I think I am going to have to give piggies some real yummies today too. We have a summer blockbuster released today. Check it out on our blog.
I’ll be back,

Wooooo! Hey Tartok and Ruby – can I come over!?!? I don’t know how this happened, but we are OUT of watermelon! Isn’t that illegal or something?
Happy Independence Day! We’re going to celebrate by listening to Mom read the Declaration!
Luv,
Dave
Bruce loves water melon lol
My Dad, Ice, does the same thing. If the hu-Mom or hu-Dad give him something different, he won’t eat it in front of them, he takes it into the livingroom and rolls it around on the rug a few times, checking it out from all angles, then decides whether or not he wants to eat it. Most times, he does, whether he likes it or not, just to keep ME (Ayla) from getting it.
