A Big Brother’s Counsel To His Sibling

Frankie Suave has done his best as the role model for his two younger brothers, though a big brother’s counsel might have gone unheeded at times.

Frankie and his little brother, Typhoon

Frankie Suave has long been a well-behaved dog. He comes when called (a rare trait in a Siberian Husky), is trustworthy in the house, and loves to snuggle. With his calm demeanor, Hu-Dad thought he would be a great role model for future dogs adopted into the house.Tasked with training his little brothers, he can claim a 50% success rate.

Landon may be high energy and quite bouncy, deservedly earning his Boom Boom nickname, but he tries hard to be good. He still had a good bit of puppy in his head, creating short moments of chaos, but he rarely gets into big mischief. And, like his big brother, he is quite the snuggler.

Little Prince Typhoon Phooey is, well, not any of those things. He thrives on disobeying, is always into mischief, and believes firmly that no human should touch him except on rare occasions. Which leads to moments like this . . .

Where did a big brother's counsel go wrong?

Where did a big brother’s counsel go wrong?

Based on his expression, Typhoon appears to have no answer to the question.

    Being a big Bro is a hard job. All of that adoration and older sibling worship is tough. Good job Frankie!

    I think Typhoon’s more wolf than the average husky. Wild boy.

    Frankie-what a GOOD boy you are-even with a 50% rate of success-I LOVE the way you try! Your brothers don’t always pay attention to what you TRY and teach them BUT never give up!!!
