#FBF: Love of a Siberian Husky Lap Dog!

Image
  FiveSibes #Flashback ~ "Bandit" ~  2017   "Because of the dog's joyfulness,  our own is increased. It is no small gift."    ~ Mary Oliver   O ne of the most comforting things to me is when one (or a couple) of my FiveSibes would hop up on my chair, with me in it, and do their Sibe swirl, then settle in for the night on my lap! Here, our 57-pound pupster girl, Bandit, made herself right at home for the night. Now, if only I had trained them to go fetch me a glass of water or a snack! BOL! But then again, I'd never want to disturb them in their comfort zones! I mean, look how content and comfy our sweet Bee looks! Could you disturb her? So, I always tried to have my snacks ready and waiting, and a few for them, too, of course!   Does your dog, no matter the size, love to be a lapdog?   đź’› Memories Are Visits For the Heart đź’›       Join Us!

Remembering Kerry McBrearty, a Caring Siberian Husky and Rescue Advocate, OG "Team Buddy" Member & Friend to Many

    “True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it be lost.” ~ Charles Caleb Colton O ur connections to friends in the pet world is huge thanks to social media. And some of us have been lucky enough to forge some wonderful friendships over the miles and years, even decades, with some pretty amazing, caring folks. When we learn of a loss of one of our beloved pets, this "family of friends" steps up to grieve with us, support us, and console with us. When someone welcomes a new dog to the family, we all cheer. When a homeless husky is in need, this family of friends steps up and shares the post in the hopes of helping rescues find a forever home for the waiting dog. Then, suddenly, we lose a member from this special group, and we all feel it. One week ago, this close-knit Siberian Husky commumity lost one such friend—Kerry McBrearty, a Husky hu-mom to three of her own and a rescue advocate, was one of those special, kind and thoughtful folks. He...

Time's Shadow: Reflections of a Heart Dog's Birthday

  Gibson's 9th Birthday...January 6, 2015   "Time flies over us,  but leaves its shadow behind."   ~Nathaniel Hawthorne H appy Birthday, north of the Rainbow Bridge to my dear Gibson! Some days forever ring out in our hearts. Like today. My beloved heart dog, Gibson, was born on this date. He came into my life as a four-month-old wooly fluff ball, and oh, little did I know of the journey that awaited us, nor how this boy would become my forever heart dog.  How lucky was I to have been his hu-mom!   This year, I'm sharing his 9th birthday party...little did I know then that this was to be the last birthday he would be with me to celebrate. He earned his furangel wings just three weeks shy of his 10th birthday. I know we talk about time, as today's quote says, it does indeed "fly" over us...and so quickly, too quickly. This birthday was 10 years ago...meaning my boy would be 19 today. Of course, he would not still be with me, but isn't it something to...
