Wrestling with Cousin Tartok

April 5, 2009 |

Cheoah here!  As the youngest of The Herd, I rarely get to post on my own, but I had a really cool adventure last night.  We had been hiking all day, came home, had dinner, and I was curling up in my crate for a nap when the humans took me back out to  the…

Random Thoughts

After a few days of rain and wind (got to 43F (6C) with 30 mph (50 kmph) winds yesterday), we are supposed to have a beautiful spring day here (65 F / 18C).  Not a cloud in the sky as the sun is rising.  Since we are headed out to the trails, thought I would…

It seems like many people out in the blog-o-sphere are updating their designs and headers, etc.  So, we were thinking about those possibilities.  In particular, we were thinking about updating the picture we use in the header.  Unfortunately, getting all six dogs into a picture is challenging at best.  Easy enough for us to get…

April 2, 2009 |

Thanksgiving Day

March 30, 2009 |

We were right around the corner from the house after a day of hiking, when we had to stop because of something in the road.  Think Natasha sees them? Good thing she is wearing her seat belt, or she would have been chasing these: Anyone have some good turkey recipes to share with The Herd?

Random Thoughts

March 29, 2009 |

Because of the forecast on Saturday for lots of rain, we completed some chores around the house, walked the dogs, and drove into town with Natasha and Kiska rather than the whole Herd to run some errands.  On the way back home, I was trying to think about what I would post since nothing really happened.…

Posing

March 24, 2009 |

Cheoah, who would never look at the camera   Qannik who was far more interested in…
