So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

Puppy Abuse

2010-07-12T18:00:00.000-07:00

Hey Roo!

I don't know what I did to deserve this kind of abuse. I mean really, I'm being loaded up like a pack mule here.

huMom used to carry everything. Our water, our treats, our water bowl... but she says now that's it's so hot that she can't carry enough water for all of us so I have to chip in.

Why me? Do you see Maebe carrying a pack? No, I don't see her with a pack either.

This was not an easy hike. We did the first mile of Ice Box Canyon up at Red Rock on Monday. See how rocky it is? It was hot too. At our first water stop, we drank half of the water I was carrying. So huMom said we had to turn around.

Thankfully, we got back to the HUV and huMom took that blasted pack off. We didn't see any critters on the trail, but check out this guy we saw from the HUV as we were driving through the Red Rock Loop!

He was standing right next to the road. All huMom had to do was pull over and open the passenger-side window to take the pic!
Don't woo think Maebe should get her own pack too? After all, why should I suffer alone?
Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

Trail Canyon Trail - Mt. Charleston

2010-07-11T19:05:00.000-07:00

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

We are catching up on our hiking adventures. We hiked the Trail Canyon trail a couple weekends ago up at Mt. Charleston. Unfortunately the hike was cut short since huMom's new shoes gave her blisters on her heel. She should just go barefoot like us!!

The Big Man came with us this time!

It was a pretty hot day!

Kayla back in the HUV

We didn't see any critters this time. But we did see these giant dogs that the humans call horses!

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

Bristlecone Trail Hiking Adventure

2010-07-04T10:10:00.000-07:00

Hey Roo!

Happy 4th of July everywoo! We hope woo aren't too bothered by the fireworks. I don't like them, especially when the dumb humans are shooting them off while I'm trying to enjoy my walk. It just makes me want to go back home.

Anywoo, we have hiking pics to share with woo! We finally got our huMom to edit our Bristlecone Trail pics. It was a 6 mile hike that took us just over 2 hours. The first part was pretty steep, but the rest was either flat or downhill so we were able to cover enough ground before it got dark.

Hey Maebe, Woo Ready to Go? MMMMHMMMM!

Burned Tree

Can Woo see the deer?

Maebe on the Trail

What's that?

Hey Look, a Coyote!!

Trailhead at end of hike

HuMom was a bit disappointed that some of the pics turned out blurry. Oh well, what can woo do?

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

Ice Cream!!!

2010-06-19T21:30:00.000-07:00

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

We are helping our friends celebrate their achievement of Certified Good Boy (Steve) and Certified Good Girl (Kat) be eating ice cream cones!!

Our huMom got it all on video. She won't win any academy awards, but here it is all the same.

They were delicious, although I think Kayla got a little brain freeze. Right after we got our ice cream we went on a hike. We will write about that in our next post.

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

We are on Facebook!

2010-06-18T21:52:00.000-07:00

Hey Roo!

We are now on Facebook! So if you "like" us, we hope woo will "like" us there too! Right now, our page can be found here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kayla-and-Maebe-2-Siberian-Huskies-in-Las-Vegas/102862213097803

There isn't too much going on right now. Maebe was caught counter surfing the other day. Here she is trying to help herself to leftover breakfast goodies:

Hey huMom, I thought you would like it if I helped clean off that pan for you!

Really, I was trying to be helpful!

Nice try, Maebs. See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

Cross-training

2010-03-14T20:29:00.000-07:00

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

We have been hard at work training huMom for her running. We have got her up to 10 miles. That's pretty far for a human, so we think it is time for incorporating some cross-training to keep things fresh and interesting.

For today's workout, we had huMom load us all up in the HUV and drive up to Red Rock Canyon for some hiking!! We decided to attempt the trail called Calico Tanks. The trail is only 1.2 miles long, but it included some rock climbing and scrambling. It was furry tricky to get all 3 of us climbing at the same time in the same direction. We had to turn around when the climb involved a big log, and we were not properly equipped to handle that. huMom says next time we will have to wear our harnesses and each have our own leash.

Here's a nice butt shot of us navigating near the sandstone quarry.

Resting for a Red Rock Photo Op

There were also some spots where there was standing water so we had some fun sloshing through the mud. We did our best to lead huMom through the muddy way instead of the rocky way. Wet feety feets are good for training!

We met a few other doggies on the trail, and of course other humans who wanted to pet us and get some husky kisses.

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

A Sweet Award from Our Sweet Friends!

2010-02-17T20:58:00.000-08:00

3. Sleeping on the bed.
4. Playing fetch with our squeaky toys.

6. Chewing on the talking duck in the middle of the night.
7. Shredding tissue, toilet paper, paper towels, etc.
8. Kayla loves zoomies, Maebe loves chewing on her feety feet.
9. Kissing the humans until they whine.

Working Dogs

2010-01-24T20:28:00.000-08:00

Hey Roo!

Woo all! Long time no see! We have been busy helping our huMom with her marathon training. Today we ran and walked 8 miles with her. It can be hard work to keep her motivated, but we do the best we can.
We caught some sunshine this weekend, after a week full of rain. Here is Maebe getting a nice belly rub from the Big Man:

And I found myself a little piece of sunshine too.

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

Pawty Time!!

2009-12-27T20:31:00.000-08:00

Hey Roo!
Did woo all hear the news? Today is Huffle's Birthday!!! We will be heading over to her place to enjoy some ham real soon. We hope to see all our friends there! We need to rest up a little before we go, though. It's been a rough few days.

Happy Birthday Huffle!!
See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla and Maebe

It's Pawlicious!

2009-12-26T21:54:00.000-08:00

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

The humans are perplexed by my behavior sometimes. They gives me stuffy toys, nylabones, paper to shred, and more, but sometimes I prefer to chew the thing closest to me.

Mmmmmm.... I loves me some feety feet!

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

Merry Christmas!!! ....and.... 100th Post!!!

2009-12-25T19:35:00.000-08:00

Hey Roo!
We wish woo a Merry Christmas,
We wish woo a Merry Christmas,
We wish woo a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!!!

We have missed all our blogging friends! We are at our 100th post, and we had a really bad case of writer's block. We have no idea how to celebrate. I guess this will be just one big update post to let woo all know what we've been up to.

First of all, it is of course Christmas and we got some good swag. Here we are enjoying our favorites.

On Christmas Eve, huMom tried to dress us up. Why doesn't she understand how much we hate dressing up? Pictures with the bandannas...

And then the dang reindeer antlers... (Maebe thought it was a toy and kept trying to bite them off of me)

As woo can see, we are not thrilled with the whole "dress woo up for pictures" thing.

This fall, our huMom was training for a 1/2 marathon, and we helped her train on her shorter runs. She is pretty slow, really it was just a medium-paced trot for us. Maebe helped her train more, since I am more of a daytime running pup and there's not enough daylight in the wintertime. She ran the race on December 6th and survived. While she could not take any actual pics of us running together, here's a pic of us all tuckered out after a 3-mile run.

And here we are while she is trying to get ready to go for a long run, exchanging kissy-woos.

This is from mid-November, when the big man made Maebe into a Maebe sandwich.

WOO may remember that earlier this year we got tested to be doggie blood donors. Unfortunately Maebe didn't qualify (and as woo may remember, I made sure I didn't qualify).

Finally, it was our birthday in September. Here we are with our personalized Happy Heart cookies! Thank woo nice Happy Heart human lady!

We hope woo get lots of walkies, hugs, love, and treats this year!!

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

I Have Been Furminated

2009-10-14T20:22:00.000-07:00

Grandmaw is here!!!

2009-10-10T20:18:00.000-07:00

Hey Roo!

We are so excited!!! Our Grandmaw has come to visit us for a few days. We gave her our special greeting reserved for only the closest of friends and family. We jumped all over her, kissed her feet, kissed her face, gave her a good sniff, and tried to eat the goodies in her bag.
Then they got the bed set up. Here is Maebe making sure it is comfy.

We have her trained well. She is to give us lots of pets all the time.

Notice my paw placement. How can she refuse?

PS: we know we are behind on blogging and we hope to catch up soon...

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

5 Five 5 FIVE 5 Five 5 FIVE 5 Five!!!!!

2009-09-16T20:31:00.000-07:00

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

Today is our birthday! We are five years old today. The humans had to work today, but we got some extra special stuff tonight! First huMom tried to vacuum (whatever for?) but the Dyson decided to honor our birthday by not working! Yay Dyson! Next, our huMom gave us a greenie for our teethies, they we got to go to the dog park. While I was there, I decided to hump both of the huskies that were there. The owner of the girl I humped was an unspayed female and her owner got mad at me, but when huMom explained that I am a girl she started to laugh. Silly humans don't understand my domineering moves! After that, we got some nice new nylabones. Here we are chewing them:

We didn't get a cake this year, but we did get a whole bunch of Happy Hearts treats today. We also got a cool new toy that we will show woo a pic of tomorrow.

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

The Screening Process

2009-09-12T20:48:00.000-07:00

Hey Roo!

We had quite a busy morning today. huMom said she wanted us to work off some excess energy first, so we went to the DOG PARK!!

Yes, we have picked up a few tips from SZK!

huMom tried to take pics of us together but wasn't too happy our pawsitioning... she said this pic was the best one. Haroooo!! There weren't very many doggies there, but we did meet a nice girl named Roxy.

Let's hang out in the shade for awhile. ***pant pant pant***

After we got back in the HUV, huMom took a left instead of a right... where are we going? When we got out of the HUV, she took us somewhere we have never been before.

Hmmmm... this is kind of like the v*e*t, but it's NOT the v*e*t...

They took Maebe back first (huMom says she is the braver one, hmmmmph), then she explained to me why we were here. She says we are here for blood donor screening. This place is called the Las Vegas Veterinary Referral Center, and they have an animal blood bank. So if doggies or kitties get hurt, the blood they get from here can save their life. If we pass the screening, we may be able to give the gift of life.

That wasn't so bad!

We don't have any pics of what they did to us (let's just say it involved needles, yuck!) but we did get sent home with a big bag of treats each. The doctor had to get my sample from my leg, I just wasn't into pokey things in my neck. I snarled at her a little. She said if I did become a donor I would probably have to be sedated, but due to my temperament I may not be a suitable donor. I want to help other doggies and all, but I REALLY don't like pokey things. If we pass the basic screening and have the universal blood type, then Maebe will go back again (I will if I HAVE to).

As if that wasn't enough excitement for one day, we went to another place after we were done with the screening. Yes, the v*e*t... we got our butts squeezed and our nails clipped.

I want to go home.

huMom was happy to hear that we were pretty empty back there. So we won't have to go again for a really long time, right???

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

A Little Privacy Here?!?!?!

2009-08-22T20:55:00.001-07:00

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

Kayla and I have a little ritual some times, and we engaged in it the other day after dinner. Our huMom had to intrude with her camera. Sheesh...

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

Bunny!

2009-08-17T14:30:00.000-07:00

Hey Roo!

We found this blog post in our draft folder... Oops!

What we wanted to show woo was the bunnies that hang out in our neighborhood. We usually can't get close enough to get a good picture of these guys, but maybe if woo click on it to blow this first pic up woo can see him.

We went on the grass to find him, but he hopped away.

Maebe looked across the street, but he was gone.
Oh well, off we go again... maybe we will see another one later!

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

For Charlie

2009-08-01T21:20:00.001-07:00

Hey Roo, we have some sad news today. Charlie has crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge. He was Dog #1 on DWB and an inspiration to all of us doggie bloggers.

Sending lots of husky kisses to his mum and dad, and to Opy too. Woo will be missed, Charlie.

Sad woos, Kayla and Maebe

Prescription from Dr. Steve Helps Humans!

2009-07-25T09:34:00.000-07:00

Hey Roo!

I am in such a good mood today. My dumb sister Maebe tried to embarrass me by submitting a fake "problem" to Dr. Steve. Fortunately, he was smart enough to see right through it and wrote the prescription for the true offending parties, the humans.

You see, I am the princess of the house and I do as I please, when I please. I answer to no one. Maebe doesn't like that because she thinks she is alpha dog, but I just ignore her. Also, I don't like baths so when the humans try to capture me for bathing, I piddle to punish them. It's as simple as that. So here is what Dr. Steve prescribed for my humans:

Dr. Steve, woo are a genius. Thank woo for helping my humans!!

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

Photo Game

2009-07-10T19:50:00.000-07:00

Hey Roo! Our friend Huffle played a photo game and I decided I wanted to play too.

This is how it works. Select the 6th photo from the 6th directory in your photos. Here's the picture:

Hey, this is just an unedited pic of one I used a few days ago! OH well....
