We've Got Christmas Mail! We Sent Christmas Mail! We Are Wishing and Waiting for Santa!


Wolf and Gibson very excited about seeing who all sent us cards! We enjoy seeing them fill our mailbox with cheer! We just love looking at all the beautiful photos and season's greetings! And we can't wait to put them all up on our wall to admire! (We did have a little mishap with our Post Office as apparently a few cards were sent back by accident when a temporary clerk filled in and didn't realize Harley, Gibson, Wolf, Chloe, Bandit, and kitty Binx were the FiveSibes, so the cards were returned to sender. Boo. We have been assured that all is corrected, so we hope if your card was returned, maybe you'd consider resending it. And we thank our Blogger pal for pointing it out right away to me so I could have the Post Office clerk correct it immediately. What a time of year to have mail returned!)


Elf Wolf is busy taking a little snooze (and Santa Paws is watching through his magic mirror to see how nice Wolf is helping me) after I finally finished filling out and sending our Christmas cards to our furpals as part of the annual Blogger Christmas Card Exchange! Stamping and licking the envelopes sure can be hard work, and Sibe Elf surely needs a little rest! We love sending and receiving cards from all our special furfriends! And we save them all!

 Gibson from last year with all our wonderful gorgeous cards from all of you! Can't wait to put up this year's!


 
Harley loves our decorations, especially this handcrafted lighted Siberian Husky in a doghouse I won in a rescue auction. A very nice addition to our holiday decor!

The boys were such a wonderful help with wrapping, too! And, of course, need a little Sibe snooze when they were done!

Chloe and Wolf busied themselves taking little snoozes while waiting for the jolly ol' Elf himself to arrive!


"Woooo! What was that? Gib! Did you hear that? Could it be..?!"

FiveSibes #Flashback Photo ~ Gibson & His Purple Pumpkin ~ 2014 W oo! Or, should I say Booooo! It's that time of the year when pumpkin hunting and carving is fun thing to do! And, while we are all busy carving and displaying our artworks on the gourds, did you remember to make a purple pumpkin?  "Woo! What's in my purple pumpkin? Treats?!"  ~Gibson/FiveSibes       A Purple pumpkin? What?! If you've been a FiveSibes follower, you know how important the color of purple is to us, and why Purple Pumpkins are a staple here.If you are new to us here at FiveSibes, I initially joined in the Purple Pumpkin Project because we made our pumpkin purple for my Epi-dog Gibson.

#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...
