Construction Zoomies

Image
"Wooooo! It's zoomie time!" What's five Siberian Huskies to do when the main yard has been off limits due to being under construction for a deck extension for over a month? Throw in too many incredibly hot days with heat indexes over 105 degrees Farenheit, and exercise has been pretty much limited to lounging on the deck, chomping on the deck rails, splashing in the pool, making their own entryway from the deck into the house via a six-inch space next to the a/c in the dining room window frame, chewing the trim off the back door, chewing the aluminum siding on the back of the house, finding and chewing up stripped pine cones, bringing rocks on the deck, chewing up the mail on the kitchen table, sitting on top of the kitchen table, chewing on the window blinds to get a better look at Mr. Contractor, sleeping in the air conditioned house, and rolling over to a different snooze spot in the air conditioned house. Summer can really zap a Sibe's energy. So, toda...

Please Vote for Wolf as THE "Dirty Dog!"

Calling all furpals and their hu-families! Wolf of the FiveSibes needs your help! He is entered into the Surf Dog Ricochet's "Dirty Dog" Photo Contest and sure could use your vote to help our Mud Monster have a shot at the "Dirty Dog" title! We only have until Friday night to gather votes!

There is not a mud puddle he doesn't enjoy! All you have to do to help Wolf is go to the Surf Dog Ricochet's Facebook page,  click on the link there for the Dirty Dog Photo Contest album, find Wolf's two pics (you can click here too), and "Like" them! That's it! Vote for the "Shy Mud Monster Face" photo shown above and then go right to the next photo that is a full-body "Mud Monster" photo shown below and "Like" that one, too. However, you will need to "Li...

"May flowers always line your path  and sunshine light your day.  May songbirds serenade you  every step along the way.  May a rainbow run beside you  in a sky that's always blue.  And may happiness fill your heart  each day your whole life through."  ~Irish Blessing   

Just Blowing (Fur) in the Wind...

"Is that all my fur???" Calling all fellow Sibe (and furry canine) owners! Let us join together to celebrate...the continuing shedding season! Oh, yes, we are a hu-parenthood of folks who prepare for this twice a year by getting out the groomer's phone number and/or your own grooming tools: the pet blow dryer, the combs, brushes, and rakes, the special de-shedding shampoos, and my main weapon of choice - the ever-needed, ever-fabulous pet fur & lint rollers I am always armed with for their constant fur deposits to our clothes and furniture! As a hu-parenthood, we are all familiar with terms such as "fur tumbleweeds," "finger-plucking or finger-raking," "Don't shake!" and the ever-popular, "Get me the lint roller!" Even after a (constant) clean sweep of the house and deck, a simple stroll into the kitchen to make a pot of coffee leaves swirling mists of fur kissing my bare feet, as rolling white tumbleweeds gently make...

Pool Pawty Time!

Image
The Dog Days of Summer certainly are upon us! In between the days of lounging in the air condition, the FiveSibes get a few early AM or late PM dips in the pool to expend some of that infamous Siberian Husky energy with some splashin' pool zoomies! And...to make matters even more exciting, today is blog furpal Sugar's 10th Birthday ! Well, the FiveSibes were just so excited, they decided to have  a little virtual pool pawty in celebration of Sugar's special day that we hope you will enjoy watching. Happy Birthday, Sugar! Now, jump on in furpals, the water is fine! Happy Birthday to woooo, Sugar!
