FiveSibes #Flashback ~ 2010 ~ Chloe, Wolfie, Bandit & Harley   "I've got a secret! Now, do think you three can you keep it?!" I do so love this intimate moment my daughter caught on film that just seems like yesterday, but was taken 14 years ago!   What do you think our alpha queen "momma" Harley was telling pupsters Chloe, Wolfie, and Bandit? What kind of "motherly" advice was she giving them, or were they sharing secrets of the snow dog kind? It certainly looks like they were in a deep dog discussion.

   FiveSibes #Flashback ~ Wolfie and Bandit ~ 2015   Memorial Day Weekend is here and that always signaled the unofficial start to summer and the hot weather here...and it also meant the time when I purchased new kiddie pools for my FiveSibes and set them up out on our covered deck for them to frolic in and splash around to keep cool on those hot days when they needed exercise.
