After a couple of scary and trying days, we are very happy to report some Kiska good news after a visit with our veterinarian. After a string of clear, autumn days, Mother Nature decided to throw some turbulent, stormy weather our way. Since Hu-Dad was still using the sling to protect Kiska if she fell,…

For background, check yesterday’s post, but the general backstory is that Miss Kiska lost complete use of her hind legs Saturday evening. We don’t have a cause identified yet, but the good news is that…

Long Night For Miss Kiska
A short note this morning explaining our long night with Miss Kiska (and explaining why our post did not go out at its usual time). Yesterday evening, we fed all of the canines and then fed the humans. Miss Kiska was performing her nightly patrol when she collapsed, losing all control of her rear legs.…

Sometimes You Have Just Gotta Zoom

Our streak of near perfect fall evenings continue, a slight chill in the air hinting at the winter to come. Lots of wrestling matches are taking place. Walks…

Rolling Eyes At Youth Today
After seeing Cheesewhiz’s post yesterday, Kiska and Qannik laugh at the youth today and have a few words of wisdom to share. Cheesewhiz likes to play her senior card for special status, such as sleeping on the couch throughout a chilly day. But the REAL seniors of The Herd scoff at such an idea. Kiska…

Cheesewhiz Celebration of Cold Weather
After a stretch of several warm weeks, we finally had some real cold weather descend on us for the last few days. Not everyone is happy. Cheoah would like doubters to be clear – she loves cold weather if snow is involved. But she sees no point in leaving her comfortable couch just for cold…

Yesterday Was A Key Anniversary
Yes, we know we are a day late. Hu-Dad is terrible about remembering the exact date of any key anniversary – canine or human. A year ago yesterday, five of us rode in the Jeep on a day long excursion east of Raleigh and picked up the one and only Landon to come back home.…

The Cause Of A Dinner Delay
In the land of hungry Siberian Huskies, you get yelled at if you are the cause of a dinner delay. We have photographic proof. So that everyone can eat at their own pace without fear of a neighbor coveting their dinner, we take our meals inside crates. But that means that every pup has to…

Trying To Explain the Unexplainable
As we are wrapping up our weekend S-RV trip, we are attempting to explain the unexplainable, though we don’t think we solved any mysteries. We like to keep our Hu-Dad guessing with all of our Siberian games and this weekend was no exception. The first mystery is one you have seen many times. The only…

Did We Forget To Mention Something?
Saturday already, so we are already deep into our weekend adventure. Oh, did we forget to mention that this is an S-RV weekend? We got up early Friday morning, loaded up the S-RV (Siberian Recreational Vehicle) and took off on another weekend adventure. Typhoon has assumed the upper crate directly behind the Hu-Dad while cruising…
