Around the Yard
We had a beautiful Friday, so just spent some time hanging around the yard. No story today, just some pictures of the “healthy” members of The Herd hanging out.

Complaint Department
Six weeks have gone by since Cheoah’s TPLO surgery and she is getting very tired of extended crate rest. The Hu-dad suggested yesterday that take it up with the complain department and here was her response. She has been enjoying her daily ten minute walk that we started this week. We are slowly rebuilding the…

Hu-dad says that one of the great benefits of working from a home office is that you do not have a boss staring at you all day as you work. Of course, with two TPLO recovery patients sharing his study, that might not be entirely true.

With a low of 6ºF and a high of 20ºF (-14ºC and -7ºC respectively) yesterday, Hu-dad had a fire in the fireplace and encouraged us to hang out inside the house as much as we wanted.

Cheoah’s picture above says it all. The fact that she no longer has to use the sling is the headline news of our TPLO Recovery update. Her x-rays revealed that the bone is healing well, though a little slower than where Natasha was at the same point (six weeks post surgery). We will begin short…

We have had a stretch of very mild – even warm – weather, but that all changed last night as the temperature dropped back below freezing. In fact, we are not expected to get back above freezing until early next week, so we have a few cold days in front of us. Of course, we…
Read Today's Herd StoryLone Wolf
Today, we study the legendary lone wolf, the creature so tough, so independent, so rugged that he is comfortable striking out on his own. Or, in our case, we have the youngster who has wrestled everyone willing (or, able) and still has energy left to explore Sibe Quentin. Of course, it is also possible that…

When we are in the far reaches of Sibe Quentin, we can have a severe case of Siberian Husky Selective Hearing when the Hu-dad wants us for something. However, we never fail to hear the dinner bell.

Cheoah is now only one week away from her first post-surgery x-rays – which hopefully will result in her release to begin short leashed walks and the discontinuance of the dreaded sling.
