Thinking of Harley, Our Alpha Queen, on Her Birthday at the Rainbow Bridge

Image
 FiveSibes Flashback Photo ~  Harley ~ March 10, 2017 Our beautiful alpha queen Harley, the surrogate momma of our FiveSibes Pupsters, would have been 17 years old today, March 10th. Oh, my, that is so hard to believe. Even harder to believe is that she is no longer with us. She was always our spunky, full of energy and joy Husky. In her honor, this will be our special FlashbackFriday post. Oh, how Harley loved to play Fetch! Even as a senior, she would run like the wind, until she became winded, but would still keep trying to get us to "try and catch her!" She was such an amazing girl. Our first Siberian Husky, my daughter's baby...who kicked off our love for the breed and became the head of what was to be our #FiveSibes pack family! Those were the most amazing fun-filled, crazy, Sibe-loving days. I know she is up there in those forever snowy fields, north of the Rainbow Bridge, kicking up some snow like crazy while having wild zoomies with her love Gibson, and pupsters ...

Meet Gibson & Wolfie: The Newest Demo Huskies for Paws N Claws 911 First Aid Training!

I recently received some news that touched my forever "FiveSibesMom" heart immensely.❤️ A few years back, on an episode my show “The Sibe Vibe” on Dog Works Radio that was devoted to Pet Safety, CPR, and First Aid featuring guest speaker, Tom Rinelli, owner and instructor of Paws N Claws 911 First Aid and Care Training located in Oakdale, New York. (Podcast at end of this article). During his classes, Tom uses simulated demonstration (demo) animals for the hands-on training sessions.    " A medical emergency or traumatic injury suffered by your pet can be life threatening - unlike their human counterparts, you cannot simply dial 9-1-1 to get help in the event of an emergency. Veterinary medical offices typically maintain normal business hours and even animal emergency hospitals can be miles away...in an emergency, Every Second Counts!! Learn the vital life saving skills needed to help your pet in an emergency."   ~Tom Rinelli, Owner/Instr...

With Love: FiveSibes #FlashbackFriday Blog Hop Returns!

  #FiveSibes Flashback Photo ~ Summer 2021 Wolfie with his best bud & hu-brother   We'rrrrrrrre back! (The we will always be my beloved forever FiveSibes who are now with me in spirit). As many of you who read my blog and/or following my FiveSibes: Siberian Husky K9 News & Reviews Facebook page know, after the loss of my last beloved Siberian Husky, Wolfie, I paused #FlashbackFridays as it was just too painful to look photos and videos. While I miss my boy so very much, and all of my FiveSibes, the time is here for me to remember all those wonderful years we spent together (that passed by way too quickly) and focus on the joy and happiness they brought. I know so many of you understand these emotions.  My FiveSibes: Harley, Gibson, and pupsters Wolfie, Chloe, and Bandit were always so happy and my #FlashbackFriday Blog Hop has always been fun! It's a time to once again share that joy. This week's #FlashbackFriday photo "With Love" is a very special one. ...
