Read Today's Herd StoryNantahala River
We went down to one of our favorite spots, the Nantahala River, Sunday afternoon. We figured between the drizzling rain and the late Sunday afternoon, we would have the river mostly to ourselves. We were right and everyone had a blast, particularly Cheoah who is ever so appropriately named after the Cherokee word for Otter.…
Read Today's Herd StoryDownhill
Several weeks ago, the Op Pack asked, “When do we get to see the trek back down” (as opposed to all of our hikes uphill or on flat ground)? We answered in this post that, “Our humans say our pulling is very helpful up the hill, but pulling downhill is not as helpful. They require…

Read Today's Herd StoryInnocent?
Natasha here. Can we talk? Yesterday, there was a discussion by Cheoah about how innocent she was. Frankly, we noticed that that was the third post this week about her. And she played this puppy dog innocent look up to make her case more sympathetic. Ok, I may be the Queen of Evil, but…

About that water incident the other day. Can we talk? I believe you left all of our dog (and cat) friends out there with the wrong impression that I can cause trouble. I mean, seriously, do you think it took me 15 minutes to get that much water all over the dog room and, well,…
