The FiveSibes™ LOVE the Earth! And it's a double shot Shadow Shot Sunday here! First was Wolf's Shadow Shot posted earlier today, and now it's an Earth Day Shadow Shot featuring four of our Sibes relaxing in the yard in one of their favorite spots in the Earth under the shadows of the tree branches, not yet bloomed. "Friendship is a sheltering tree."  ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge And in a tribute to our planet, here's a great trailer for a region that is home to the Siberian Husky, the Arctic. Enjoy! Let's all do something good for our planet today and everyday! Shadow Shot Sunday 2

My favorite Easter shot of Wolf, "Guardian of the Colored Eggs" In the Shadow, In the Light                   I promise you, for all my life             I'll be Always on your side             In the shadow, in the light.             I'll follow you, wherever life goes             But I'll always be aside             In the shadow, in the light...             Caravan of life             By day and by night             Every tile's a part of life   ...

The FiveSibes™ are joining  in The Howl Heard Around the World in memory of the Whistler 100 Huskies. Pictured at right, our Harley leads our pack in The Howl today, which marks the beginning of a three-day virtual vigil anniversary (see T HE HOWL HEARD ROUND THE ROUND THE WORLD Remembering the Whistler 100 Facebook Event Page ). For those not familiar with the Whistler 100, you can visit my post from March The Howl Heard Around the World. Whister 100 Sled Dogs - From a Tribute to a Cause and also visit last year's Candlelight Vigil post. Let us all take a few minutes to honor these angel sled dogs, light a candle, and remember their lives and how in the wake of their senseless slaughter, a world joined together and demanded change so there will hopefully never be a repeat of the horrific fate those sled dogs faced. As I stated in my blog when this story first broke, the only way we can truly pay homage to them is to always remember our humanity. In the face of adversity,...

Be the Change for Animals' Blog the Change for Animals happens quarterly, and today is one of these important dates! Many of you know my six-year-old wooly Siberian Husky, Gibson, is an Epi-dog. He was diagnosed, and has been treated, for Canine Epilepsy since he turned three. This was my first introduction to a seizure disorder, and as any Epi-dog parent can attest, it is indeed a very scary thing to witness. I've shared my experiences and journal entries from those first few heart-stopping episodes before I learned all I could about what it was that was affecting my beautiful boy. I have a wonderful team of veterinarians who truly care about my boy and finding the best treatment for him with the least effects. For Gibson, so far, his treatments are what I call "successful." Each day that turns over into a week then into a month, then into six months, then a year that he can remain seizure-free is a true blessing. And I take it day by day. There is no guarantee th...
