Reinforcements Arrive

The Thundering Herd Annex arrived today.  Yep, Cousins Tartok and Ruby joined us in Chattanooga.  Well, not exactly joined us since they are staying INSIDE a motel room. Probably living it up in King Size beds each with lots of fluffy pillows and room service and Animal Planet 24 hours a day and everything.  But they did come hang out with us on the drop line for a while.

    Poor Queen Natasha – so many tails to keep in line! And, she doesn’t even get a king bed…

    Now, that’s a lot of Sibes!

    Natasha can handle it. We hope that when rest of the sibe world stops to pay their respects to the queen, that they bring gifts. A box-o-bully sticks would be nice!

    That’s so cool that your cousins are there! They should invite you to their hotel room for a slumber party!
    Love,

    Natasha should be pleased with added troops – the Queen is judged by the magnitude of her kingdom:)

    Love the way Ruby is sitting in that first pic. Both she and Tartok look great.

    woos, the OP Pack

    We wanna see pictures of you all in crates in the RV. Mom is still trying to figure out where/how you fit! (And hey… don’t knock the king size bed, fluffy pillows, room service and Animal Planet – that is my USUAL life! Except that Mom would rather watch NCIS than Animal Planet…)

    too bad they have a motel room

    I’m pretty sure that EIGHT of you could drag that drop line back to the hotel and you could all hang out on the king size bed and order room service yourselves. Natasha knows how to dial room service, I know she does.

    Oh yeah, you totally should stay in a hotel. We’ve only stayed in a hotel during our move from Texas to here, but it was really fun. The best part was when we were in Kansas and the only hotel Mom could find that allowed dogs was one that only had a full-size bed. So imagine Mom, Dad, Kat, and me all sleeping on that!

    Also, in our last night in a hotel, Mom was telling Dad how proud she was at us because we were doing so good at staying in hotels. I peed on the bed within a minute of her saying that.

    You guys certainly look like you’re having fun. I’m trying to imagine that many Sibes “announcing” all sorts of things.

    You guys know your cousins too? Roo roo! They are a bit more pampered.. mom and dad could take a hint. Oh.. my blurry photo.. you have the same problem? Mom says it happens with just one of me.. you at least have a whole pack to manage.

    you mean dreaming of destroying the fluffy pillows in his comfortable room. Don’t fool yourself. you’ll all be lucky if that hotel filled with sibes will be still standing after your visit! I’m betting that only some of the frame and sheetrock may still be standing.

    hi dk & gang,
    we were just wondering…have you ever had a loose dog come and cause havoc with the thundering herd when they are on the drop line? i have a drop line that i tried to use when we had 8 monsters…maybe it’s a sibe thing but my decidedly non-sibes couldn’t handle being restrained in that way…they kept getting themselves tangled in the most bizarre of ways. especially the two guppies…i think they are just too darned wiggly! i love how the thundering herd are so well behaved and seem to enjoy being hooked up that way! anyway-just wondering if you have ever had an attack from a loose dog?
    kisses and scritches to all of the gang!
    sue and co.
