Grilling Distraction
As we have mentioned before, Sibe Quentin extends from the back of the house into the field. We have a large, secure area to enjoy our mountain weather, but, amazingly, the humans built a “no-dog” zone right in the middle of our yard. Yep, they have their own door in and out of the house…
Read Today's Herd StorySecurity and Super Q-Tip
We have often told you about how the senior girls – Natasha and Kiska – are in charge of security. But that leaves the question as to the role of the male senior, the Super Q-Tip. As always, pictures are the best way to explain things around Chez Herd.
Read Today's Herd StoryDo Something About It
Our weather yesterday was cold, windy and rainy – with a little sleet and snow mixed in just for fun. We wanted things to either get warmer and drier, or the temperatures drop and give us snow. Either way, we expected the hu-dad to do something about it.

With our RV weekend over, we had to return to our regular working duties. We are, after all, a working breed. Our primary task is the supervision of the hu-dad while he does busyness at his desk. And, of course, we have a supervisor’s chair.

Our RV Setup
After we posted about our RV trip this past weekend, we had a couple of readers ask about our RV setup for maximum canine comfort and safety.

Read Today's Herd StoryIf The Shoe Fits . . .
We have explained before (here and here) how Typhoon likes to pick-up water bottles during our walks. Yesterday, we knew he was being very quiet during a walk when we realized he had something in his mouth again – but not a water bottle. As the saying goes, “If the shoe fits Typhoon’s mouth, at…
Read Today's Herd StoryRVing at Big Ridge State Park
Woo-hoo! We convinced the hu-dad to go RVing at Big Ridge State Park just north of Knoxville, Tennessee. The S-RV (that would be Siberian Recreational Vehicle for our newer readers) needs de-winterizing and cleaning for the season, so the hu-dad decided to do a shake-down weekend. And we convinced him to go to one of…

The early part of the week may have been raw, cold and wet, but our weather is turning sunny and warm. Might be just the time for planning a weekend adventure.
Read Today's Herd StoryLegs or Springs
Several weeks ago, we posted about Typhoon’s amazing Suppertime Dance. And then, yesterday, we posted the picture below of him dancing around the yard. So the question is does he have legs or springs – or springs in his legs?

Tuesday was cool, cloudy, and just a good, lazy day to relax around Sibe Quentin. Well, for most of us.
Read Today's Herd StoryTartok Tuesday – Reading Material
For today’s post, we are going to the other side of the valley and the hu-grandmom’s house. Everyone assumes that any tale of mischief over at The Herd Annex is bound to be about Ruby, but not this time. Today’s tale is about Tartok. Tartok is an extremely trustworthy boy. Unlike his sister, Ruby, he…
