"Not all stray dogs are homeless."   ~Lost Dogs of America   While we don't want to think about our dog getting out and lost, but now, especially with the nicer weather, means more times dogs are outside or traveling, and the risk is high that they can get loose and become lost. Dogs can travel—or be taken—great distances. What do you do when your dog goes missing?   The flip side is there are a great number of dogs found. How do you get it back home to its family?   My article published in 4Knines titled "Lost and Found Dogs: Resources to Help" i s a MUST READ for all dog parents .    In it, I share important tips, sites, resources, poster templates, and a 2-part episode of my show "The Sibe Vibe" featuring experts from Lost Dogs of America, Lost Dogs of Wisconsin , PetFBI, and Lost/Found Husky Group on Facebook.   Lost/Found Husky Dogs Group on Facebook Please check out my article HERE, bookmark it, share it, and remember, "All...

Some we met in person, some virtually. Regardless of how we met, the relationships we build are so important and ones I have always cherished. Now that the "we" here has now become "me " representing the "we," who are my #ForeverFiveSibes, I am carrying on our original mission of highlighting the amazing Siberian Husky in all of its glory, both as a working dog and as a family dog, whether rescued or raised, and ones with special chall...
