March 3, 2009 |

Tomorrow, we will show you some video of us walking in the middle of the storm (we are saving that for Walking Wednesday), but thought we would share some Monday pictures with you – the day after the storm.  Nice warm day with a high of 23F (-5C), so we went for a long walk…

A Blizzard Rescue

March 1, 2009 |

Ok, not really, but the title sounds good.   The story is simple.  Our hu-dad’s parents went down to see our hu-aunt and uncle and, importantly, our little hu-nephew (is that all clear???).  Forget it – ignore all of this human stuff, and focus on the really important thing – our cousin Tartok went to…

Sigh . . . Rain

February 28, 2009 |

We have rain.  Lots and lots of rain.  1.6 inches (4cm) in the last 24 hours, so the Herd is expressing its total boredom right now. Rusty, Kodiak, Cheoah (er, cleaning herself) and Qannik (or, Qannik’s ears and body) on the porch   Rusty and Kodiak in the dog room (they swear not their wet…

Jingle Bells

February 24, 2009 |

Our buddy Simcha posted a great question on the comments Saturday: I always think of windchimes when I see videos of “The Herd”. Do you wear special tags to make this pretty noise? Is there a purpose behind it? I’ve always wondered. So let’s start with the purpose.  We live in the small town of Maggie…

How to Enjoy Snow

February 23, 2009 |

Snow is meant to be enjoyed totally and completely when you are a Siberian.  Don’t just walk in it – immerse yourself in it.  As demonstrated by a snow covered Cheoah and a happy Kiska: Me?  Drag my face in the snow?   Keeping the belly cool   Is this cool or what?

Squirrels as Pets?

February 22, 2009 |

This is going to be a quick post because we have fresh snow.  No time to waste.  There are no paw prints yet on our driveway. But we must alert The Squirrel Patrol to a new danger.  The Squirrel Patrol is made up of: Kira – Creator of The Squirrel Patrol Award and who clearly…

Extremes

February 21, 2009 |

Let’s get this out of the way first.  Bad human.  We have no fresh pictures since last weekend.  Sigh.  It is so hard to find good human help these days. So we were looking at our photos from last weekend and noticed something.  First of all, here is a picture of all of the dogs…
