Family Portrait

July 30, 2009 |

We thought we were doing such a good job getting everyone to pose and look at the camera.  Everyone seemed to be following me with their eyes: But then I realized that they did not seem to be looking directly at me.  They seemed to be staring past me.  Mind you, I am used to…

Campbell Station Park – Farragut, Tennessee

July 29, 2009 |

Saturday afternoon found us out in the west side of Knoxville, Tennessee.  We needed to find somewhere to burn some energy off of The Herd (despite their morning walk and their evening walk – they needed a midday walk).  So we stopped at Campbell Station Park in Farragut, Tennessee.  Very nice little park with a…

Rainy Walk

July 28, 2009 |

An experience that any human should have at least once: You wake up.  It is 6 a.m.  You know perfectly well that if you move, change your breathing pattern, or open an eye, six Siberian Huskies will immediately start clamoring for attention.  You try to remain still and continue to pretend to be asleep.  This…

Norris Dam

July 27, 2009 |

Well, nice to be back home and have access to the internet again (since our hu-dad so carefully left the house without his laptop card).  That just means that we will spend this week’s posts telling you about our adventure this weekend.  We took off for Norris Dam State Park.  Yes, we have been there…

Kodiak has been well trained by the masters of the Army of Four – Zim and Stormy.  Click their names to see the post with their begging skills demonstrated.  And now that you have done that, could you resist this face when you are trying to eat your breakfast?

Forgetful Humans

July 25, 2009 |

We took off on another one of those S-RV (Siberian Recreational Vehicle) camping adventures this weekend.  It was sort of a last minute thing, so the humans had to pack quickly  We made sure they remembered us and food for us, but left all of the details to them. So we are off on our…

Shoulder to Shoulder

July 24, 2009 |

This picture is harder to get than you think.  At least one member of The Herd is always sniffing something, peeing, or otherwise outside of the picture.  But, in a rare moment, we actually have all six together in a shot.  Left to right – Rusty, Kodiak, Cheoah, Natasha, Qannik and Kiska. Not that we…

What an Honor

July 23, 2009 |

If you have never visited the wonderful Life with Dogs Blog, now you have your perfect excuse!  They are wacky, zany and drop dead hilarious.  We never know what crazy thing they are going to do next.  And now we know they have no limits to their insanity.  We know that because they have listed…

Qannik-a-versary – Sort of

July 20, 2009 |

Bad humans.  Bad humans.  Train and train the humans and yet they continue to misbehave.  What did they do this time? We would like to wish Qannik and Happy Gotcha Day – July 14.  Oops. Yep, two years – and six days – ago, we received a call from Sarge’s Animal Rescue Foundation, the group…

Beautiful Weather

July 19, 2009 |

Hope all of you are having a great weather weekend like we are.  The day was absolutely spectacular here: Funny thing about weather in the mountains.  The variability can be really crazy.  We told you that the predicted high yesterday was 69 F (20 C).  Well, the official high ended up being 74 F (23…
