#FiveSibes #WaitingWednesday: Spotlight on Husky Haven of Florida & Mask Fundraiser!


Wolf modeling my personal fave mask from Husky Haven of Florida!

 

Woo! Welcome back to our #WaitingWednesday Blog Hop, where we highlight rescues and feature some of their adoptable dogs and dogs waiting for a foster home! We've been on a blogging hiatus for the better part of six months, so we are happy to be back today with #WaitingWednesday Blog Hop! Before we turn the spotlight on HUSKY HAVEN OF FLORIDA, let's first take a look at their current fundraiser--adorable handmade Husky dog face masks! Okay, so our Huskies won't be wearing them like our FiveSibes Wolf here, but they are so cute, I couldn't wait to buy mine! But do hurry, styles are running out of stock! See further below in this post for how you can buy one or a few of these masks that will help Huskies in need, and help you keep yourself and loved ones to #StaySafe during this Covid-19 pandemic.

 


#WaitingWednesday Blog Hop #HuskyRescues

While we here at FiveSibes, focus on Siberian Huskies and northern breeds, the Blog Hop is open to ALL breeds and species, so I hope you will join in and highlight some rescues near and dear to your heart, or even your own positive rescue story, and hop along with us! This week, our featured rescue is HUSKY HAVEN OF FLORIDA! Please be sure to scroll down to see some of their beautiful adoptable Huskies!

#BreedEducate2Relate #WaitingWednesday #Rescue Blog Hop

What's This  #WaitingWednesday 
Blog Hop All About? 

It's about becoming a "village" to help rescues, homeless Huskies, and all abandoned pets of any species in need. It's also to share breed information to help educate folks so they understand the traits, habits, and needs of specific breeds, such as the Siberian Husky, BEFORE they welcome one into their home to ensure the home will be a forever one. Please check out our recent post HERE where I talk all about this new important Blog Hop! 

 

 

How You Can Join in Our Weekly "Village" to  Help Homeless Pets...

 

#WaitingWednesday Badge

Write a blog post (or Facebook or Instagram post) highlighting a rescue (you can do a different one each week!) along with some photos of the rescue's adoptable animals (dogs, cats, horses, bunnies--any species) along with a little info on the pet and the rescue's contact information. 

***Then grab our badge here and link to our blog, add your post's link to the Linky list, and join in the hop to help homeless animals! Link List is open all week for your convenience!***


While we here at FiveSibes randomly select rescues to highlight, if you are with a non-profit rescue of northern breed dogs (and mixes of both), and want to be sure I feature your rescue, please send me your info and some of your adoptables to highlight in an upcoming “Waiting Wednesday” post! Feel free to Email info and photos to FiveSibes(at)gmail(dot)com and put "Waiting Wednesday Adoptable" in subject line!

    Aw Aaron especially pulls at my heart strings. I'd love to adopt a special needs dog someday. He looks like a lot of fun! I'll check out the masks, maybe they'll have a design that looks like my Fenrir. It's good to see you back! I hope your move went well and that you're all setting in to the new place nicely.

    I am sat here smiling at the husky mask. What a relevant and important fundraiser and they look super cute (thank you Wolf for being such a gracious model!)

    I can't begin to imagine adopting a dog without checking out if I could handle it first. I would never buy a Doberman for this reason, they need experienced handlers, and so do Huskies.

    Dogs need homes that can manage them, cats too. I could not own a Persian because I would forget to brush it!!!

    Fostering is our plan. Right now we are not set up to be able to have two dogs but whenever and whatever the next dog is going to be, it's going to be a foster.

    These masks are absolutely adorable! Give me allll of the face masks with dogs on them. I loved meeting all the Huskies that are available from Husky Haven. I also really love that you spread awareness about families understanding breed traits and characteristics. It’s so easy to look at a beautiful Husky and want them in your home, but it’s so important to know that their personalities will blend well with the family. Awesome article!

    This is a great way to make money for an organization in need at this time. So many areas right now are requiring masks - Why not purchase one that is going to help make a difference at the same time? Thank you for sharing and highlighting such an important cause! We've always been active in rescue and I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Those masks are cute. I think masks are going to be a new accessory for awhile, might as well use them as another way to express ourselves and help out a good cause (I got some cat themed ones as soon as they were mandated here.) it’s good to see you back and posting.

    I hope all the furry friends you featured get adopted very soon. Thanks for offering

#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...
