Guess Who turns 4 on the 4th of May???

Miss Ariel will be 4 on the 4th of May!
I can't believe she's going to be that old already.
We started fostering her at age 1 and half years old and shortly thereafter adopted her forever!
She is a blessing to our home.
Wait and see what's up for her birthday!

Jelly bean war...

Ariel has saved one last jelly been.
It's right next to the side of her cheek area.
Chip acts if he doesn't see it.

Ariel knows her brother wants it. So, she decides to...

Oh, please can I have it ?, ask Chip

Nope, its all mine., says Ariel

Ha, ha little brother I still have it., says Ariel
 
 
Maybe I have a chance at getting it now. , says Chip.

Ha, little brother its all mine. Gotcha!, says Ariel
 
Just to let you all know the huskies here love jelly beans from Oliver's Candy Store in Batavia, NY.
I bought some other brand of jelly beans last week and they knew they weren't the ones from Oliver's till grandma and grandpa brought us some today.




Chip's First Easter with us!

Chip checkin' out what the Easter bunny left him and his Sibe siblings.

Happy Easter Everyone, says Queen Nala.

Timber just being mellow, like always.

As you can see the huskies know where to sit for dinner.
(Timber, Boo, Chip and the paw sticking out from under the table is Queen Nala's.)

What ma?  You are distracting us with that camera again, says Chip.

She sat next to her grandma and her daddy.

Chip's first Easter egg hunt!

I think there is something in this egg, says Chip.
 
Cousin Kodah found his Easter egg too.

Ariel got her egg opened for the treats.

I just love Timber's expression in this photo as if to say really I have to hunt for treats now?

Boo loves hunting for the eggs because of the treats and she thinks she can help all the others with theirs too.

Nala was the last one to get her egg.

Chip is double checking the dinner table for any leftovers.

Kodah with his Easter basket.

Chip with his first Easter basket ever!

As  you can see in the corner of the photo Kodah had to get a peek at Chip's basket too.

Kodah got to wear the bunny ears today.
Chip told him it was ok because he had to wear them earlier this week.

How many huskies can we fit on a doggie bed?
(Chip, Ariel and Timber)

Boo loves sitting up the storage box on our deck with her Easter basket.

We hope you all had a happy Easter with your friends, families and of course your doggies.

We Had Snow This Week!

 
Here is a brief video of the youngin's Chip and Ariel enjoying the little bit of snow we had this week.

The boys got to play the Easter bunny this week...

Here Chip got to come to work with mommy and play the Easter bunny by handing out Easter eggs filled with doggie treats for mommy's coworkers doggies.

Timber did the same thing, but at our vet's office yesterday.
He gave all the workers doggies Easter eggs with treats in them.
The boys are good sports about dressing up for mommy.
 
Update on Timber:
He will be on ear and eye drops forever now.
Ear drops to try and keep the ear infections away.
As for his right eye he has a bump on the eyeball of inflammation(which is common in German Shepards) that has gotten smaller with the help of the eye drops, but will never go away now.
Our vet feels it is something to do with his autoimmune system not being just right.
If any of you have any info. on something like this I would appreciate it very much if you could let me know what you did for your dog.

A Goody Box in the mail...

Hum?, says Chip

Here little one let big sis check it out., says Nala

Can't I help big sis?,ask Chip

No, I am the alpha here. It's my job to inspect the goody box., says Nala

Ok, Timber I will let you have a sniff at it too., says Nala

As you can see the boys try again to get another sniff in of the goody box ,but Queen Nala has control of the goody box.

Nala works at finding her goody.

Timber asked her if she needed help, but she was determined to get it on her own.

I will hold the box still for you Nala while you get your goody., says Timber
How sweet he is of a brother.

She is getting closer, wait and see!

This is amazing!
Our friend, Auntie Pat sent the goody box for Easter. Queen Nala had to be first to get her goody and amazingly she got her favorite color, PINK and guess what?
It was the one with her name on it!
I guess she knows how to read her own name.

Here mommy took off the grass so Nala didn't eat it and to show everyone she really did pick out the PINK Easter Egg with her name on it.
You should have seen mommy's face when she pulled it out.  Mommy was surprised and so was daddy.
( We were happy to see Nala dive into the bag to get her treat.  She has obtained a new phobia since her surgery in Oct. of the sounds of bags, treat bags etc.  But this activity of finding her Easter egg didn't  bother her at all.  We are working with her on this phobia of sounds in an all natural way, but if any of you have dealt with this before, please leave a comment to let us know what you did to help your dog.)
Boo was next to find her goody.

Nala had to double check and see if she missed anything else for her.
Ariel is waiting for her turn along with Timber.

 
We had to tell Nala it was Ariel's turn.  Ariel respects her big sister and obeys her.

Here is Ariel with her egg.

Boo finally found her egg.

Timber is laid back and waited patiently for his Easter egg.

Here is Boo and Timber.
Don't you just love how Boo sticks her tongue out for the picture.

And little man, Chip is last.
He is such a good boy.  He always sits and waits for his treats.
Nala is seeing if she can fool her little brother into giving his treat to her.

Timber eating his yummy treats!
Thank you Auntie Pat, Sky, Willow and Koyuk!
Big hugs to you!
