Happy Thanksgiving!

It's Thanksgiving and a time of reflection, giving thanks. Last week, we featured a Thankful Thursday, where we celebrated all the wonderful things we have to be thankful for, and there's so much more. We also, of course, love eating turkey and all the yummy fixin's! The FiveSibes celebrated this day in all the enjoyable ways a Sibe can.

Kicking off the holiday, we watched the Macy's Day Parade. Wolf wants to know how why he wasn't in it aboard a sled float with his pack family. Maybe next year, Wolf???


Then Wolf and sis Chloe kept getting running about and getting excited when they heard the words "turkey" and "yummies."

Chloe, Harley & Wolf howled their Thanksgiving greetings for all to hear!

 Sisters Bandit & Chloe checking in on the status of the stuffing.

All FiveSibes waited very patiently knowing their turn for turkey would be coming very soon.

Later in the day it was time to work off some of the turkey and sweet potatoes, Sibe style!


After dinner, it was time for a good ol' Husky nap for Wolf, Gibson & Harley. Turkey and exercise sure makes a Sibe sleepy !


 Hope yours was a good one !

    You guys sure know how to celebrate a holiday. We had pumpkin pie today, but we won't get our turkey till Saturday. We have freezing rain today so we're all keeping our paws crossed for snow overnight.

    What a pawsome Thanksgiving post! You pups sure know how to celebrate the holiday! And I am very impressed by your patience. That stuffing looked so yummy I might have just jumped up and eaten it!

    Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

    p.s. K here - Thank you for answering my question re the ball in the food dish. That is so interesting! I never heard of anything like that. Luckily, I don't need that as Suka is a very slow eater, but that is very ingenious to have created something like that. Learn something new every day! Thanks!

#PrayersForHarley - Dewclaw Tumor

Image
Dewclaws. Such an unnecessary evil for a dog. In August, I noticed Harley limping. At 11-and-a-half, she is a bit stiff-legged at times from arthritis, but this was a more pronounced limp and she was having an extra tough time sitting down. She seemed very uncomfortable. She was also becoming a bit snarley, especially when I was touching her paw, which is something that never typically bothers her. Upon further checking, I noticed an odd lump around her dewclaw on her right leg, thinking it was possibly a pulled dewclaw, maybe a splinter, thistle, or even a bee sting , she became extremely agitated when I touched it.    (Warning: some photos may be somewhat graphic, but I am sharing for educational purposes).   Oddity beneath the dew claw.   Off to the vet we went. At the vet, Harley is protective of her paw by hiding it . Harley's paw was shaved and it uncovered a very large inflamed area surrounding the dewclaw and beyond, as you can see in ...

The Rainbow Bridge Welcomes A New FurAngel - Buddy, the Christmas Husky - A Forever Symbol of Hope for Rescued Dogs

Image
Original photo by and courtesy of Lisa Byrd; modified by FiveSibes The Rainbow Bridge must be some (p)awesome place to be for it has so many amazing, beautiful angel animals there. My beloved Gibson is there. As is my Chelsey, Sandy, kitty Smokie, bunny Sunny, my fox Ah, many horses, and so many others pets. We have many furfriends who have also crossed The Rainbow Bridge. All of these beloved animals are there...so healthy and happy, with all the dogs enjoying their zoomies and playing Fetch all day in a land that is eternally beautiful. Sounds perfect. Only catch is when our devoted companions are there, we can no longer physically be with them. So while they are in a place where the spirit soars, our hearts are broken as we are missing them here with us. It is a hurt we all as pet parents now way too well.  And today, as unbelievable as it seems as I write this, we have to bid a final farewell to another dear furpal, Buddy, the Christmas Husky , who has now earned h...

Fit For Our #FiveSibes Alpha Queen: Celebrating Harley's 14½ Birthday

Image
Born on March 10, 2005, our beautiful alpha queen, pupster surrogate momma, and my daughter's and our first Siberian Husky,  turns 14½ today! You may be wondering why are we celebrating her half birthday? Because, as heartbreaking as it is, we now know she will not be here in March to celebrate her 15th Birthday as I once had hoped. Heartfelt thanks to Ann at Zoolatry for this beautiful badge. Thank you all who are sharing it and joining paws for our girl. As amazing and strong as our queen has been, and how proud I have been of how she still could outrun Pupsters Wolf and Bandit, still splash in her pool like a puppy, tear up a dog bed like there's no tomorrow, and chase her tail until the sun sets, our beloved Husky leader has also been dealing with health issues that we have been treating, but are now slowing her down and, heartbreakingly we are preparing ourselves for her journey, that we as pet parents all dread, to the Rainbow Bridge.  “Dogs' lives a...
