  FiveSibes Flashback ~ 2015 ~ Harley & Gibson D oughnut (or Donut) Day...What a fun day! My FiveSibes enjoyed doughnuts in a slightly different manner, Harley and Gibson had made themselves comfy after we put air in our then new dought-styled pool floats! When I saw them in it, I just had to laugh. Huskies sure can be silly! Hmmm...I think we had a theme doing on here...food! No wonder our FiveSibes loved our pool floats! BOL! FiveSibes Flashback ~ 2018 ~ Chloe Now that's not to say my FiveSibes didn't enjoy eating doughnuts, too! Of course, they were always about treats! Here our Chloe eagerly waited to sink her teeth into a yummy, homemade doggy doughnut (made by Sassie's Goodies)!  Want to make some of your own DIY homemade watermelon doggie doughnuts?

He loved belly rubs, running through the snow, and splashing in the pool with our four other Huskies. He was a gentle giant of a dog, who loved everyone he met (especially girls)! Gibson was the inspiration for many articles and several books I wrote on Canine Epilepsy, as well as the...

Huskies Telling Secrets on a #FlashbackFriday!

 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.
