Different Angle, Same Reaction

May 9, 2023 |

Hu-Dad had a brilliant idea. He’s taken several photos of us exiting the house, but always from the middle of the yard. What if he sat on the step instead? Wouldn’t it be fun to see us running by with nary a glance at the photographer? Roscoe was first. Chalk this one up as a fail.

That Accusing Look

May 7, 2023 |

With the demanding nature of so many dogs at Chez Herd, Hu-Dad sometimes forgets whose needs are most important. Frankie Suave shot him that accusing look as a “gentle” reminder. Frankie was ready to go inside, but the door was still shut. Such things simply shouldn’t happen.

May 6, 2023 |

With apologies to Maxwell Smart, we have a little story today about Roscoe that he would prefer we didn’t tell. Let’s call it missed by that much. (Click the link to read the whole story).

That Sly Look

May 5, 2023 |

Landon? Up to mischief in the backyard? No way would he do that! And when the Hu-Dad questioned his antics, Landon fired his squinty-eyed response as if he couldn’t believe Hu-Dad could even have doubts.

A Typhoon At Rest Is Plotting

May 4, 2023 |

Typhoon’s reputation for trouble dates back to his arrival at Chez Herd over a decade ago. He easily gets bored and creates games to keep himself amused. Because of this long history, Hu-Dad knows Typhoon is always creatively thinking up his next misadventure.

Not Up To Nothing

May 2, 2023 |

Hu-Dad’s attention was on the rest of The Herd when he spied Roscoe slinking across the yard. When questioned, however, Roscoe claimed looking guilty doesn’t mean he was guilty. Of course, Hu-Dad pointed out that doesn’t mean he’s innocent either.

Sunday Stretch

April 30, 2023 |

A big believer in physical fitness, Roscoe works hard to keep himself fit and trim (we won’t mention Hu-Dad not offering extra meal rations). His primary exercise is wrestling his bestest-brother-ever. In between bouts, he recommends a good stretching regimen. (P.S.—We won’t mention that Roscoe just finished a sunny nap either).

Pure Attitude

April 29, 2023 |

Explaining Typhoon can be challenging. His self-assured belief is that the world should conform to his every wish. Human requests are mere nuisances. Sure, we can describe him, but then a photo comes along that does a much better job. We give you pure attitude.

Stalking Roscoe

April 28, 2023 |

Our photographer (aka, Hu-Dad) attempted to photograph Roscoe snorfling the yard. Roscoe, of course, figured out Hu-Dad’s plan right away and came over to investigate. So if you feel you’re being stalked today, well, you are.

Too Busy For Photos

April 27, 2023 |

First, Hu-Dad awakened Frankie from a good nap to go outside for a quick break. Then, Hu-Dad wanted a few pictures and asked Frankie to smile when all he wanted to do was get business done and get back to the important job of napping. This side-eye communicates Frankie is too busy for photos, thank you.

Time Out

April 25, 2023 |

We’re serious about our games, particularly our favorite—tackle-wrestle-bitey face-body slam-tag you’re it. Nothing, but nothing is more important. Unless, of course, something interesting happens at the neighbor’s house and we need to snoop—er, monitor the situation. Don’t worry, though, the action resumed as soon as we grew bored.

The Frankie Head Tilt

April 23, 2023 |

Just the other day, we shared the lure of the brown eyes which few can resist. And, of course, our senior sibe can always resort to his subtle but persistent sweet charm. Seriously, though, when he adds the Frankie head tilt, Hu-Dad can never say no. Could you?
