There is Always One
Here we are – all five of us marching down the trail: Wait? Five? Kiska looks for the missing wonder. There is Rusty, off to the side and doing his own thing. There is always one, and it is usually the Rooster.

As you may remember in this, this and this previous post, we showed you the view from our porch until the fall fogs settled in and then the first snow fell. Well, I was standing out on the porch this morning and realized that it is, technically, still fall so thought I would share a…

I would love to claim that I was trying to get this effect for the picture, but I must blame low light, slow shutter speed, and dogs in a hurry:

Ok, now we are mad. No, not about the snow. We love the snow. We have snow up to our fuzzy, errr, tails and we are having a blast. We are delirious about the snow. We are running everywhere in the snow. We are digging in the snow. Even “I don’t like to be cold…

Hello to Shadow and Skyler of Nashville, TN – two beautiful Siberian friends. And how do I know them? In order to keep The Herd well fed, with couches and beds to lay on, and vet bills paid, I have to work. And my work requires me to travel. Monday morning, I was getting onto…
Read Today's Herd StoryCorneal Infiltrates
