A Pupcake, Some "Chocolate" Bunnies, and a Whole Lot of Easter Fun!

Wolf and Bandit spy the "goodies!"
We hope everyone had a wonderful Easter this past Sunday! Ours here was quiet and spent with our immediate family and the Sibe kids, of course! We did have to delay their celebration for a couple days as our girl Bandit, who never gets sick, suddenly came down with a tummy bug and was sick most of Easter afternoon and night and into the next day. After a couple days of rest, she is thankfully back to her normal self and back on food, so we were able to do some belated celebrating together as a pack family! They were a very happy, excited bunch of Huskies when they discovered it included treats and toys! Two magical words our Siberian Huskies love to hear!
For starters, our FiveSibes were treated to a delicious custom-made and decorated Pumpkin Applesauce "Pupcake" and some pumpkin and peanut butter holiday cutout cookies from Sassy's Goodies in Springfield, Missouri. The Pupcake, according to Nanette (Sassy's Goodies owner, baker, and U.S. military wife), is made with "oat flour, oat bran, pumpkin, applesauce, olive oil, honey, egg, cinnamon, vanilla, baking soda, baking powder, and love!" 

Harley is ready for some of Sassy's Goodies!

A Siberian Husky mom of two, Sassy and Bentley, Nanette says, "Our treats are all natural with the freshest ingredients possible. They contain no wheat, corn, salt, sugar or additives. We use the freshest home grown ingredients for the best taste for your pet at affordable prices."

Bromide, it is imperative to watch the salt intake, so it's great that these Sassy's Goodies Pupcakes never contain any! Plus, it's made with all fresh ingredients that we can even eat it! So our FiveSibes can have their cake and eat it, too!
"Nom-nom-nommmmmm...this is delish!!!"
You can read more about Sassy's Goodies on a previous blog post HERE, or visit the "always open" web store, or pop over to their Facebook page to see what's cookin'!

 Just recently, Nanette and Sassy's Goodies was recently featured on TV's KOLR10 News when they celebrated Griffey the Weather Dog's first birthday with a Sassy's Goodies cake, made just like our Easter cake!
 
"Woo...gluten-free cookies? Yumm!" says Gibson.
"Woo! Cookies, too?!"
Well, our FiveSibes certainly loved the Easter egg-shaped Pupcake! Sassy's Goodies features these Pupcakes, along with their cookie cutouts for lucky pups. The cake is baked, frosted, then it is personalized, then wrapped and shipped Priority mail. As soon as the cake is received, it is placed in the freezer until ready to serve. It's also great crumbled and added to their breakfast of kibble, yogurt, and coconut oil! Yum! Can you say "clean bowls?!" And then there were the bunny and Easter egg dog cookies...nom, nom, nom!



"Okay, Mom, can we have it now please?!"
Chloe sure enjoyed the pupcake and cookies!



Then they opened up a fun package from their "auntie" Holly and her Huskies! Gibson claimed the purple stuffie and egg for himself, naturally! (Purple for Canine Epilepsy awareness). Check out these adorable hand-painted eggs from Holly, one for each Sibe! Just love them!

I believe the Huskies know when a package arrives for them as they sniff it out as soon as we bring it in! They know the package is going to be fun and all theirs! 


  
Thanks so much, Holly and the Huskies!

Then they had some chocolate bunnies....

WAIT! WHAT?! DID I JUST SAY CHOCOLATE BUNNIES???!!! 


Not real ones, of course, as we know chocolate is toxic for dogs. They got to enjoy canine fun squeaky fuzzy "chocolate" bunnies! Aren't they cute?! They came from  PetSmart®, of course!

"Woo...bet Mom had  you going there for a minute! No worries, they are stuffies!" assures Chloe!

    Yum, that's what we say to that pupcake!! So happy to hear that Bandit is better. The canine flu epidemic in Chicago is scary. Mom is glad that our vet encourages her to get us the canine influenza innoculation every year.

#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...
