    Feeding the snapping turtles (video + pics)

    Sorry, that's just what they remind me of lol. Yes this is what I do for entertainment. Keva is especially a pro at catching, I never seem to be able to catch it on video but several times the treat has bounced off another dogs nose and she's caught it. She'll leap in the air for treats too.

    And a couple of pictures while I'm at it, here's a couple I took before the snow in our yard melted:
    Little Miss Skya, a bit over 8 months old and about 30 lbs (doesn't look like she's going to get much bigger either)


    This picture is deceiving, it makes her look much bigger than she really is

    Here are some pictures from a little while ago, we have an event where you can take your dogs to the hockey game! I believe part of the proceeds go to help homeless animals (they have adoptions there too). I just took Nebo and Keva because Skya is such a chicken I was afraid it would freak her out too much. It's a lot of fun, I enjoyed watching the game!
    The huskies prefered to just stay under the seats the entire time, they were very good

    They stuck their heads out every now and then to check things out

    The pups and I

    That's funny because I call them the "Hungry Hungry Huskies" lol. When the food bowls come out they follow me all over (Keva talks to me too, lots of howls to let me know how hungry she is).

    Notice how Skya sees no need to 'get up' to catch?
    She just tracks the flying treat and then Leans Into the catch.

    Keva's really into it, isn't she? Looked like she might snap up the camera! I like how Skya just sits there & leans over. Hugs to handsome Bebo, clever Keva and sweet little Skya!

    Ha ha! Looks like my house, one, two, three, when passing out treats! Your Huskies are adorable! Amy, my Jake got a bit bigger up until he was over a year old. (which I didn't think would happen with a smaller dog) Syka may still do some growing. Not that it matters when she's so cute.

    LOL! They are so cute. I have to keep Kia and Chipper at least a couple feet apart or else Kia steals every toss intended for Chips.

    Cute pictures! For some reason my computer isn't letting me see the video.

    Aww I love those first couple of Skya, especially her sweet expression in the 2nd one. The video made me laugh. I think Raven would be about like Keva . She's the nut of my pack as it seems Keva is the nut of yours! The game looks fun! It's great seeing you and the pups again.

    I love how Keva pays attention to everything that is thrown from your hand. Keva REALLY pays attention to what she is getting, as well as what the other dogs are getting. I can totally see her stealing treats that bounce off Nebo or Skya's noses Soooo cute!!!!
