With Black Friday only three weeks from today (can you believe it?), I thought I'd give the holiday season a jumpstart by talking about a really cool gift idea for your shopping list either for a friend or for yourself! I came across this website for custom Pet Night Lights , a company out of Arizona, USA, and thought, "What a great idea!" So, of course, I had to try it out! Many of you have seen my favorite FiveSibes™ Christmas card from two years ago. I decided it would make a great night light. So I contacted the company and went to their Pet Night Lights website and very easily was able to upload my photo. As fast as you can say "Up on the rooftop..." I had my night light!    And...I love it! It was quality made, carefully packaged, and it even included the night light bulb! Pictured here, our Bandit sits by the glow of our new night light featuring her and the rest of the FiveSibe™ family.  So, if you're stumped on what to get a pet lover (or y...

  Treat Time! Stuffed squeaky witches for all!!! Woooo!   Chloe's keeping hers close and staying up on the chair. Harley took the purple one...   Bandit and Wolf tug over a green one...   Bandit won...for now...   Wolf's eyeballing Gibson's green witch, apparently he doesn't like purple!   "This is MY witch." "I love you, little bro, but NO, you can not have my green witch!" Wolf got Bandit's green one and destroyed it in 0.5 seconds! Gib's protecting his. Gibson is safely keeping his witch very close by. Hope everyone's Halloween was a fun and safe one filled with lots of treats! Now we are in a new month with lots of fun things to do and look forward to. Happy November!!!

Wooo! and Booooo! Happy Halloween!!! All the entries into our very first "Let's All Scream for Howl-o-ween" Autumn photo contest were just, in a word, pawsome! Wow, the entries were so creative, funny, and beautiful! I'm glad I wasn't a judge - it would be way to hard to pick. Notes from the judges praised the entries for their creativeness, spirit, humor, and composition. You are all winners in my book! Wooos to you all from the FiveSibes™!  And let's give a big round of "a-paws" to our judges, too, for such a great job.

T oday is the Halloween kick-off and first installment of the Two Little Cavaliers holiday season Regressive Dinner for Pets event! First, we would really like to thank them for hosting such a creative and fun event. We are very excited to participate - after all, it's about treats and food and the holidays! We are highlighting a favorite very simple treat of the FiveSibes - yogurt-dipped bones. Yum! We first saw these at a fruit and vegetable stand and thought what a great idea! They were charging $1.50 per bone wrapped in a pretty cellophane packet, and I thought with five Huskies, I could not only make that buck-fifty go farther, but I would feel good about having the treats be made at home. The best part? My five Siberian food critics all gave the recipe five paws up! Here's a video of the recipe we posted last year while doing our Canine Cooking Corner feature that we thought you'd enjoy! Bon Appetit! The fun hops along at all these wonderful blogs where recipes a...

And here's Wolf up to some tricks (helping himself to some treats while the others are busy playing!
