Hazardous Duty
Feeding six hungry Siberians can be a challenge. We have a very specific routine. 1) The dogs are each in their place – Natasha and Rusty in the dog room; Kodiak, Kiska and Qannik in the den; and Cheoah in her crate (food aggression issue that has to be contained). 2) Each dog must sit…

So where were we headed on our walk in the snow? Kiska always checks in to see what’s what: We were headed to Thunderstruck Ridge and this fabulous view: Nothing like a clear, cold, winter day for great long range views.
