Window Shopping
Hu-Dad was working away in his study when he noticed that several of us were doing some window shopping. Hu-Dad checked all of the usual suspects. Our neighbors were not riding their horses (aka, big dogs) down the horse trail in front of the house. No bears. No deer. No coyote. The answer is that…

Trouble Is My Middle Name
Typhoon “Trouble Is My Middle Name” is always trying to instigate some “fun.” As an example, Cheesewhiz thought last night was a perfect time to sit in Hu-Dad’s lap and get some good scratching. Perfect plan until Trouble arrived.

Rain Delay
Summer brings our regular afternoon thunder showers and the associated rain delay in outdoor activities. Our daily rains keep everything nice and green and the air cool, so we don’t really mind. A little rain doesn’t really cause any problems and some of us really enjoy wandering around in the rain. But with that done,…

The Day After
Yesterday, we celebrated Queen Natasha the Evil’s 12th Birthday. The party included games of chase, massive wrestling matches, and lots of zoomies – partying Siberian Husky style. Of course, now it is the day after. Today, we might be stumbling around, exhausted from all of the festivities. We will be back with more energy tomorrow.

Anyone Sitting Here?
Hu-Dad was sitting on the back deck taking pictures of The Herd when he felt a light tap on his shoulder. Who can possibly resist those big brown eyes when Frankie wants something? Of course, Frankie might say it is not only a perfect spot to watch others, it is also a very comfortable spot.

Table Service
Last night, the Hu-Grandmom came over to Chez Herd to have dinner. Typhoon provided table service, though we need to explain that a little. For some odd reason, the humans decided to have dinner while we were outside. That never makes sense to us because how can we be social with Hu-Grandmom if we are…

Burst of Energy
Sometimes, during the summer months, it is really hard to find that burst of energy. Typhoon did his absolute best for these photos.

The Scream
The scream. That “something hurts, I’m scared, help me” scream. Our morning started off normally – let outside a little before six for some wrestling and playing time inside Sibe Quentin before breakfast is served at 7. Hu-Dad uses that time to read his newspaper (via an iPad). It is quiet time. Well, Siberian…

Typhoon’s Role Model
We often question how long it will take Typhoon to grow up. Considering Typhoon’s Role Model, we think the answer is never. Queen Natasha is within a week of celebrating her twelfth birthday, but continues to cause mischief and mayhem at every opportunity. Oh, sure, a little innocent walk around the perimeter of Sibe Quentin.…

Will He Ever Learn?
Typhoon has lived at Chez Herd for well over two years, so we all ask the question, “Will he ever learn?” Typhoon loves nothing better than a good wrestling match and his favorite wrestling partner is Cheoah. He always goes high thinking that will allow him to dominate, but Cheoah is the master at keeping…
