Late Late Dinner
Between yesterday’s thunderstorms and heavy rains, Hu-Dad claimed he was really tardy with his errands. Which meant we received the late late dinner. We had rains off and on all day. The heavy winds and loud thunder avoided our area (and Frankie is thankful for that), but we still received nearly an inch of rain.…
Read Today's Herd StoryCousin Check In
Hu-Dad crossed over the valley to Hu-Grandmom’s house last night for Saturday night dinner, so he brought back a cousin check in for us. First up is “The Dude” himself, Tartok. As long-time readers know, Tartok has a long standing tradition of going to bed very early and not being much of a host past…
Read Today's Herd StoryInside Outside Confusion
Hu-Dad said that we appear to be suffering from some sort of inside outside confusion based on our recent behavior indoors and outdoors. We went outside this morning about sunrise, ate our breakfast, and commenced napping. Normally, we ask to come inside several times a day, but yesterday we just quietly napped. Every time that…
Read Today's Herd StoryCuring The Rainy Day Blahs
Heavy thunderstorms up here on the mountain ridges, so we were curing the rainy day blahs for some bored Siberian Huskies. We have settled into the traditional summer pattern of weather – warm and humid with daily thunderstorms. We don’t mind the mountain definition of warm, since we had a high of 71ºF (22ºC) at the…
Read Today's Herd StoryBusiness Etiquette in the Office
As role models for proper decorum, we thought we would dedicate today’s post to exhibiting excellent business etiquette in the office. Hu-Dad does most of his busyness from his study, which is great because we are to help him throughout the day with his work. We like to organize his paperwork, participate in his telephone…
Read Today's Herd StoryWhy We Do Security Patrols
Tuesday afternoon, Hu-Dad snapped some photos of us handling security patrols. Tuesday evening, he saw quite openly why we take our security patrols seriously. As any regular reader knows, Chief of Security Kiska insists on regular patrols of our perimeter. And when something is seen, smelled, or sensed, we respond in force to defend our…
Read Today's Herd StorySpeed Racer
One of the key advantages of youth is your quickness, and Typhoon loves to prove how much of a speed racer he is every day. The munchkin has reason to smile. He knows he can outrun anyone inside Sibe Quentin (including quite a few rabbits), but first he has to toy with his pursuer. And…
Read Today's Herd StorySummer Snowmaking
If our neighbors at Cataloochee Ski can make snow in the winter, we decided we should try our hand (er, paw) at summer snowmaking. And, yes, that is fur. Lots and lots of fur. We are all dropping our winter coats and Hu-Dad was speeding things along yesterday with our Metro Air Force Commander.(yes. that…
Read Today's Herd StorySearch Party
A few readers noticed something important was missing from yesterday’s post, so we sent out a cracker jack search party for answers. For an amazing seven weeks in a row, we celebrated Film Friday by posting a brand new video on our YouTube page and shared it on our blog. We even relaunched our video…
Read Today's Herd StoryTyphoon’s Treehouse
All of Sibe Quentin is a Siberian Husky playground, but some pup has claimed his own personal, special place – Typhoon’s Treehouse. Just before these pictures were taken, a rambunctious game of “chase-tackle-wrestle-bitey face-body slam-tag-you’re it” was careening throughout the yard. When Hu-Dad looked up, he wasn’t sure if Typhoon had been treed or if…
Read Today's Herd StoryTough Life of Frankie Suave
As a rough and tumble sled dog (being of the same breed, at least), Frankie Suave would like to share his tough life with our readers. The duties begin early after waking from his sleeping spot at the foot of the human bed. After a good stretch, Frankie is off for a morning patrol of…
