Typhoon’s Throne
His Royal Highness Little Prince Typhoon Phooey eyes one of the decorative rocks in our backyard. Does he see it as a proper pedestal for posing? A throne to command? A dais for sharing his thoughts to the masses?

Making New Friends
Hu-Dad tells us we have to be on our best behavior during our twice-daily walks on the neighborhood greenway. We’re not exactly sure what Roscoe was up to that he was out of frame for this shot (probably found something good to sniff), but the rest of us were just making new friends. For some reason, Hu-Dad thinks we had more nefarious plans.

No Explanation Forthcoming
We really wonder what the neighbors think when they look outside and see a sleeping Typhoon. He says the grass is comfortable, the shade cool, and the snores constant. and that’s as much as he’s willing to comment. There will be no explanation forthcoming about his sleeping position.

Returning From Games
The Trouble Brothers, Roscoe and Typhoon, love their playtime in the yard, but when the day is done, they can be found returning from games just in time for ear scritches, supper, and shut-eye. Have to recharge to do it all over again the next day.

That Guilty Look
Hu-Dad was enjoying a quiet afternoon in the backyard. To the best of his knowledge, nothing was amiss and everypup was behaving. That guilty look from Typhoon, however, suggest that maybe Hu-Dad should investigate a little more closely.

A Deal Is A Deal
Our twice-daily walks offer many distractions such as rabbits and squirrels (and the occasional bear family), but Roscoe’s biggest weakness is other dogs. To keep him focused when passing another walking canine or one in their backyard, Roscoe receives a treat for good behavior. Yesterday, we passed a yard where one of his buddies hangs out, except the dog was not outside. Roscoe argues that he behaved well and deserves a treat. As his look says, a deal is a deal.

Fluffiest Fluffy Tail
Siberian Huskies are nicknamed curly tails for a reason. On a really cold day, you’ll see us curled up with that tail wrapped over our nose for insulation. Well, not us. We’ll be on the couch in front of the fireplace, but our cousins out there working. Landon sports the fluffiest fluffy tail. It might be a little over-the-top for the show ring, but we’re on the couch for that too!

Don’t Look Them In The Eye
Sometimes the Hu-Dad drones on and on and on about rules and behavior and other such nonsense. When it comes to humans, though, Landon says if you don’t look them in the eye, then you can claim you never heard them say anything. And, yes, he was in the middle of a woo at this point too.

Lost Invitation
We had our dinner and then, we confess, we fell to sleep in a quick dog-nap. The house grew quiet, but surely the humans wouldn’t go eat outside without us, right? But it sure smells like dinner was eaten before we arrived, so maybe it’s a case of a lost invitation. Right, Hu-Dad?

Bouncy Bounding Boom Boom
We share in the duties of modeling for the Hu-Dad and his camera, so we each take turns posing for a few photos. Sometimes, though, especially on a Friday afternoon, you just don’t want to work. Instead, Landon opted to engage the bouncy bounding Boom Boom. Hu-Dad did his best.

Into The Shadows
So many choices for the perfect napping spot on a sunny August afternoon. Frankie Suave has decided to head into the shadows to enjoy the cool pavers and nice mountain breezes. He would promise not to snore too loud, but some promises are too hard to keep.

Just A Little Drizzle
Mountain weather is notoriously unpredictable, so Hu-Dad uses three different weather apps to monitor incoming storms. Two said no rain for the next hour and one suggested we would get just a little drizzle. None of them predicted the driving rain we received. The Little Prince would like to have a discussion with those weather app companies… after he finishes giving Hu-Dad the Royal Look of Scorn.
