Today started out as one of those wonderfully lazy rainy Sundays where we all wanted to spend it like Wolf! Happy Sunday!  

"By all these lovely tokens September days are here, With summer's best of weather And autumn's best of cheer." ~ Helen Hunt Jackson With the arrival of Labor Day, also comes the unofficial end to summer. September is such a beautiful month. Perfect really. The temperatures are still warm. The waters still sparkle. And the crickets still chirp all lulling us into the false sense that summer is still here...after all, it's not the 23rd yet! But even with still humid days, although we do not wish to admit it, the sunlight is growing shorter and there is something in the air; while not yet the cool snap of Autumn, it is some thing. Something that tells us summer is ready to leave as Autumn beckons in the not-to-distant future, waiting in all of its golden glory of colorful foliage, crisp air, and pumpkins decorating the landscapes and our food!   I love September. But I admit I will miss the long, hazy, lazy days of summer when everything seems to be mov...

This is the precious photo of two-year-old big brother Gibson giving a nuzzle to new little sister Chloe when she was just about 10 weeks old! I love this pic so much, you may recognize it...it's my FiveSibes Flashback Friday badge! Gibson was king of the deck when he used to be able to jump up on the bench and then climb onto the top of the log cabin style doghouse we kept out on the deck. He loved his perch so! When the Pupsters came along, they all tried bumping him off his perch, but wound up having to share the space. I'll always fondly remember these days!   All photos & articles © DWR/FiveSibes™ Lingering Joys The tide recedes, but leaves behind bright seashells on the sand.

"Woooo...a packaged for me???!!" Nothing brings a smile to a Husky's face (other than snow) than a box of treats and toys! As you know, my boy Wolf blew out his CCL last month and had to undergo cruciate imbrication surgery. He is definitely on the mend, and his incision has healed nicely, and a soft coating of white fuzz is now covering his surgery shaved leg. He is starting to put some weight on it and we just received the green light from the surgeon to allow him to walk for five minutes when he goes out on his potty breaks now! He is still on strict bed rest inside and on leash walks only, but we are on our way to healing. We are half way there...in three weeks, we do a follow-up and find out how he is progressing.  We have received many wonderful Emails, comments, notes, prayers, power of the paw vibes, and cards... and so appreciate each and every one of them. Today, we want to say "thanks" for a very special care package from Holly and the Huskies...

  Wolf's cruciate imbrication surgery was one week ago today (See original post HERE ). A week from today his staples are removed! He is still a long way from healing, but we are certainly on our way and after the staples are removed, he should be more comfortable as he rehabs. Here he is resting after a dose of his meds and his very first in-home centering/calming acupuncture treatment. He had his while mommy had hers! Thank you to everyone for all your wonderful thoughts, prayers, notes, cards, gifts, and well wishes! Wolf certainly feels all the love as he makes his slow journey toward recovery.
