    I definitely think one or two. They are soooo similar! The formation is great and the pups all look fabulous! The alignment looks really good in number one also.

    2 and 4.
    in 1: Kiska looks depressed, that’s why i like 2 better. they all have similar expressions in 1 & 2, except kiska, who looks better in 2. tho the reds are slightly out of focus in 2. but i think expression rules over perfection in focus.

    3 is out because i don’t like the angle. too messy. but that’s a sibe i guess! and it’s the most out of focus. good dogs TTH-dad, stop eating the pot brownies before your walkies!

    4, i like because QNtheEvil is in the middle, as she should be. Looking very serious. Quannik looks playful and Kiska has an awesome expression on her face. And Rusty is being rusty, doin his own thang.

    #4 looks “thundering”

    Gotta go with #4 – even tho Rusty and Cheoah seem somewhat distracted, and Kiska is attempting to correct them -lol. Alternately, #2 would be a close second, being the most symetrical.

    Has to be number 4 for me, great picture

    #4 for sure.

    Has Qannik been doing some modeling?? There’s an ad in the current issue of Smoky Mountain Living for a jewelry store in Waynesville that has a beautiful
    white ‘Qannik look-a-like’ in it!!

    Enjoy the snow!!

      Chuckling. No, Becky, that is not Qannik. But we know the store owners and the Sibe. Highly recommend them for unique jewelry if you find yourself in Waynesville. They have done some repair work as well as some new pieces.

    We like all of them, but #1 seems most appropriate with five of the pups in step together and Rusty being the different one:)

    The dogs look like they’re most organized and well-behaved in #2. I can see everyone’s face.

    But, in #4, they look like a tribe of wild Sibes. In control but with lots of spirit.

    I’m having trouble choosing because the two are so different – but I think that I’d choose 4 for the spirit!

  11. Stella
    December 22, 2009 | 9:49 am

    Number 4 is the only one for me, full of spirit and movement. Its just THEM, moving along, pulling and loving their Sibe lives.

    Cheers,

    We wanted to send you a link to a terrible story in our local Denver paper. 108 counts of animal cruelty are being filed against the owners of Huskys. The owners failed to feed the animals and five starved to death before authorities moved in. The Herd needs to help us send up a “howl” about this incident.

    #2 looks the most formal (and I like how everyone has one paw forward), but 4 definitely shows the most character!

  22. Lynn
    December 22, 2009 | 12:48 pm

    #4, followed closely by #2.

    Loved number two…they all look happy and they look like they are a really well behaved pack of puppies :)

  24. Suka
    December 22, 2009 | 5:17 pm

    Number 2!! Definitely Number 2!! They are all great photos, and all you pups look just beautiful! But my eyes keep going to picture Number 2 because I think all of you look your very best in that photo.

    No.2 is the vote of the Irish jury!

    We thought you might like to see the husky sleigh ride alright! It was an amazing experience for the NLSM – one he still talks about three years later!

    I like Four. Because they’re all moving with each other, but they all have a little bit of a different expression on their faces. Qannik’s barky face is too cute!

    You all look pawesome in the snow. #1 because you all are focused on the same thing…what was it?

    One is my favourite and if your hu-dad was worth his chops he could photoshop your leashes and those person legs out of that photo.

    Hmmmm, I think I like #2 – just look at that paw formation they’ve got going on the left — “right paw forward…NOW!”. Furry impressive pack-work.

    a-roos to yous,

    ooo….so many votes for 4! but so many like 1 or 2 too… i think i like 4 best, cuz it’s discombobulated, thundering, lots of expression… not perfect, but yet symetrical enough!

  32. Denns the Vizsla
    December 22, 2009 | 10:04 pm

    I like #1, because it looks like everyone is facing the correct angle for their position in the line!

  33. Bice
    December 22, 2009 | 10:18 pm

    Even though Kiska is stunning in #2, #3 and #4, I have to vote for #2!

    I like number two, but it’s very close with number four! They all look like they’re about to start laughing in that fourth one!

  35. Mika
    December 23, 2009 | 12:49 am

    I like 2 or 4. 2 is more centered than 1 up and down wise. 4 has some of your personalities. The most “perfect” picture would be 2.

  36. achieve1dream
    December 23, 2009 | 8:26 am

    I like the first one except for Kiska’s and Kodiak’s expressions.

    My favorite though is four! I love the interaction between Kiska and Qannik. Also love Kodiak’s stare and how Rusty is trying to pull away to do his own thing. I would definitely go with four. :)

    December 23, 2009 | 9:38 am

    Wooos! I like #4! Shows a thundering herd effect!

    So while they are all really good, I think I will pick #2. I like that angle and for the most part, you are all looking at the camera. Kodiak is also covering your human’s legs for the most part and we know that there is no place for a human on the Herd’s blog.

    #1 or #4, I prefer #4 cause it shows some personalities of the herd (or part of the herd).

    December 23, 2009 | 11:58 pm

    They’re all great! Hmm…I think I like #2 the best!

    I love how Kiska is posing in #3! :)

    Number 2 followed by 4. 2 for the regal look and 4 for the more wild look. Hope that you Christmas was a great one!!!!
