Asheville is well known for being very dog friendly, as…

A Rare Sight

December 19, 2008 |

At night, our humans swear that Cheoah has an on / off switch, because when she goes to sleep, you can’t wake her up – to move, to go outside, whatever.  She sleeps really soundly.  But during the day, she runs, she bounces, and she is a constant blur of movement.  So, this picture is…

December 17, 2008 |

While the rest of The Herd is comfortable walking on the pavement of the closed Blue Ridge Parkway, Rusty must always keep his delicate feet on the soft comfort of grass. For the fans of Rusty’s “uniqueness”, we share this week’s Rusty video:

Where’s our snow?

December 16, 2008 |

Snow is not meant just to be enjoyed. It should be savored. An example is provided here by the ever energetic Cheoah. Remember, this is a professional. Do not try this at home. Unless you are a Sibe.

We Want In . . . NOW

December 8, 2008 |

Visitors to the house are always amazed that I have nose prints and paw prints 6 feet high on the glass door to the dog room. Not just the prints, despite the regular cleaning of the glass, but that they are 6 feet high. Here, Cheoah and Kodiak demonstrate exactly how that happens in their…
