FiveSibes #Flashback ~ "Bandit" - Winter 2015       "When life grows cold a dog will warm your soul."  ~Angie Weiland-Crosby    B rrrrr....the weather for this weekend here in this area is a major snowstorm weahter forecasters are predicting will affect "200 million Americans" and will affects many states from Colorado to Oklahoma to Massachusetts, with some areas getting up to two feet of snow! Our area is supposedly  12" - 15" range. The temps here have been in the negatives and single digits, so Old Man Winter is right in his prime! Which brings me to this week's #FlashbackFriday pic of our girl Bandit, who after a similarly freezing cold and snowy winter, along with all of our FiveSibes, decided to go dip her nose in the frozen tundra while out for a quick run in the yard. Bandit loved to play snowplow and use her snout to push through the snow. When I called to her, this was the pic I snapped, with a chuckle, as her whiskers were e...

They, along with Gibson and Harley, are always and forever in my heart and I always embrace their special dates, and while I miss them all so very much, how lucky I was to have them all in my life.    And, as always, they sent me a sign...snow! Right at 12 noon, shortly after I posted this! And no snow is in the forecast. They sent me birthday snow! 🌈❄️🐕🐕🐕💞 Thank you, my dear Pupsters!      Waiting for me finish t...

  FiveSibes #Flashback ~ 2020 ~ Pupsters "Bandit" & "Wolfie" S now will forever remind me of my beloved FiveSibes! This week, while it has been snowing here (since early December), I'm flashing back to the Winter of 2020, when our remaining pupsters "Wolfie" and sister "Bandit" explored our snowy backyard to our new place for the first time! While we sure missed our other three, and things were all new here, including our routines, it was very cathartic and healing to have new adventures with these two pupsters. So many sites and sniffs for them to enjoy and help them with missing their sibling Chloe, big brother Gibson, and surrogate momma Harley. Now, as I sit looking out across our snowy backyard, it brings back bittersweet, but fond memories of when our beautiful senior snow dogs enjoyed their first snow in our new place.   "The first fall of snow is not only an event,  it is a magical event."    ~J.B. Priestley   ❤️ Memori...
