P.S. – For newer readers, Rusty left us for the Rainbow Bridge late last fall. However, he was well known for his antics while out for our walks, including his wall walking skills. He would totally appreciate what the younger members of The Herd were doing during their walk and it sure made us smile. Hope it made you smile, too.

Wings of Doom
December 12, 2024
A simple nightly routine with my dogs led me to face the wings of doom, a hideous creature that lurks in the shadows of my yard.
I have tears in my eyes while reading this post. Yes Rusty would have loved to hang out with the youngsters.
Miss Rusty the Rooster!
Beautifully done, everypup!
Play bows,
Zim
We will know if Rusty is doing a mind-meld thing if they all start doin’ the Rusty Strut! I really miss that cut-up of yours.
Jo and the Petz
Their tribute really made me smile. What a character Rusty was.
I can definitely see some Rusty channeling going on there! I’m sure he continues to watch over you all!
Holly & Khady
*grins*

I’m sure he’s got lots more inspiration up his pawsleeve!

It may seem “weird”, but I fully believe the Herd knows something we don’t. Rusty DOES live on! I’m sure he’s standing on the Rainbow Bridge, grinning from ear to ear at the antics of the rest of the Herd who are following in his footsteps!
Made me smile & tear up a little bit! That boy, Rusty, was just so unique & he is really missed!
I’m in total agreement with you, Lisa. I felt exactly the same way. Big grin, and leaky eyes!
I agree Lisa. I smiled through tears. Rusty is missed!
Big smiles here!!
Lovely tribute, Herd! Rusty is proudly watching over woo & having a good ha-roo at this!
Aww! Big grins here! I knew the walking antics wouldn’t end! π
why do they call it a “hip check?” when we all know darn well it’s a “shove.” Is that just politically correct term? since when do sibes need to be PC?
I’m sure Rusty is smiling. He’s walking on his rainbow bridge looking to poke his nose in someone’s legs… π
Rusty is whispering Siberian mind tricks on the Herd :O) Yes, he would have LOVED the new kids!
It’s no secret that Rusty was my Herd favorite (although I love them all)–so when I saw this, I did indeed smile! Rusty would be so happy to know that his antics live on!
Love and sloppy Sibe kisses to the Herd (and to the members living north of the Rainbow Bridge as well)
