Hey Pups,

I think these birdies may taste like chicken too...



Here's one for the little bipeds too! These kids rock!

Sleep Study

Hi Puppers!

I've been trying out new sleeping spots and positions lately. Here's what I've come up with so far...

I call this the over-the-top position...

Here's my upside-down head-down position...

The head hang over the couch position...

Here I am utilizing 2 pieces of furniture...

Enjoying some time in the little biped's room. Her bed is furry comfy!

I really like the couch...

This makes it even better....sharing it with the little biped...

This was pretty comfy...

Better...

Best of ALL!

I hope you all enjoyed my sleep study!

Pee Ess: We're still supposed to get snow tonight!

Snow!

Hi Puppers!

I'm a bit late sharing our fun in the snow. Mom had the week off of work and spent the week playing with us and the little biped. So she didn't have much time to help me write a blog post.

Here's Sky watching Canyon and I play.....it was more like watching me jumping on Canyon though....he's such a wimp!

Sky and I watching Canyon wait at the door.....he needs some more fur

Canyon waiting to pounce on Sky!

Can you tell Canyon thinks he's freezing to death?

I saved the best for last! How do woo like my snow nose???

The forecast is for 3-6 inches of snow on Tuesday night. I can't wait! Hopefully it will be enough for the little biped to get out on the sled with King Skyboy!

Get your Bipeds in Shape!

Hey Pups!

I've got a challenge for all my furfriends. It's time to get our humans off their lazy butts and get them moving. I was told about a great program called Idita-Walk by Sir Jack of Coastal New England.

This from the Idita-Walk 2009 Website: "Welcome to the Idita-walk 2009 homepage! An event to promote physical fitness in the spirit of the Iditarod Sled Dog Race. The Iditarod Sled dog race is 1049 miles long from Anchorage to Nome, Alaska. To complete the Idita-walk, walk 30 minutes a day for 35 days between February 1, 2009 to March 31, 2009 for a total of 1049 minutes."

I've gotten my mom to sign-up as a member of Team Sibermal. We usually never get to go for walks so hopefully this will change our humans sedentary behavior. Both the human bipeds could stand to lose a few pounds. I think that they think they're going into hibernation and need to build up thier body fat.

I'll whip them into shape!

As King I proclaim you all to go and register your humans to get fit! It only costs $10 and proceeds benefit Camp Bronson maintenance, scholarships, and numerous youth related programs.

Mourning a Loss...

Hi Puppers,

I don't understand this. Our vacuum wanted to do a post tonight. Apparently she is in mourning for the passing of D. Animal, Tubey's Dyson Vacuum.

Here's to you D. Animal. May your journey have been a swift one...

Ok, the Dyson's back in the closet.....please visit Tubey's blog to pass on your congratulations for a job well done!

Princess Summit Meeting

Hey Pups!

I had a very informative meeting last night with an outstanding group of royalty. The little biped holds these royals in highest regards. So, I felt I owed it to the little biped to hold an official summit with her court of Disney princesses. During this summit it was decided to bestow more royal honors to add members to my court. 

Princess Sunshine Meadow also was in attendance at the summit. As princess of my kingdom she also has a say in the princesses who get added to my court. 

The first Princess to be added to my court is the super fluffy Princess Hollybollybananaboo of Nebraska. Holly is the reason all of us sibermal bloggers mom's got their own "chat" group. This group definitely keeps mom busy and stops her from bugging me! SMS rules!

The second Princess is the bewootiful, dark-eyed Princess Eva of MinneSNOWda, representative of the Belgian Empire along with her castlemate, Brice of MinneSNOWda, the Duke of Destruction. Princess Eva has been kind enough to invite me and my entire court to join her in MinneSNOWda. Apparently they have an overabundance of the white, fluffy stuff we call snow!

Snowy Sunday

Hi Puppers,

I thought I would share some pics of our first snowfall of 2009. We had lots of fun running and playing in the snow last night,

Me: Canyon, how do you like the snow?

Canyon: It's a little cold for my taste...

Me: Is there more snow coming?

I wonder if the neighbors got more snow than us...

This was King Skyboy showing off and striking a royal pose in the snow...

I hope we get more snow soon. Mom wasn't able to let Sky pull the little biped sled because we didn't get enough snow. It supposed to get "arctic" cold this week, maybe that will bring more white, fluffy, fun stuff!

Snowy Saturday!

Here's the view from our back window and front window today. We were about paw deep in snow this morning and we thought that's all we were going to get, but it started up again at about 2:30 PM this afternoon. Maybe we'll all get to go out and play in the snow with the little biped this evening.

New Year's Studmuffin

Hey Pups,

It's that time of month again... Hussy Wednesday. Princess Meadow wouldn't cooperate, so Duke Canyon was kind enough to provide Mom with a Studmuffin shot.



In honor of Hussy Wednesday, I, King Skyboy have decided another Knight must be named. Steve will forever be known as Sir Steve of the Washington Woos. His contribution to canine society is his way of having his humans bow to his every whim. Recently he submitted a picture to me that showed how his dad stayed on the couch just so Sir Steve could continue using him as a pillow. Great work!

Since Khyra is his girlfriend, she is now known as Lady Khyra the Wise of Pawsylvania. Khyra also has the distinct honor of being the greatest hussy I know.

Welcome to my Royal Court, Sir Steve and Lady Khyra.

King Skyboy's Royal Court

Hey Pups,

As I mentioned the other day, Dad has discovered that we are descended from several royal families including the all of the Welsh Kings of Powys (reigned: c 400 to 1160); High King of Ireland, Brian Boru (reigned: 1002 - 1014); King Pepin I of Italy (reigned: 781-810); Charlemagne of France (reigned 768-814); Holy Roman Emperor Constantine (reigned: 306-337); Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius (reigned: 161 to 180); Roman Emperor Trajan (reigned 98-117); as well as several other Irish, German, French, Welsh, English, Italian and Roman heads of state, nobels, bishops, and saints.

Therefore, I have proclaimed myself: King Skyboy, His Majesty of Siberians. Additionally, I announce King Skyboy's Royal Court.

I recognize Queen Meeshka, Her Majesty of Merryland and invite Queen Meeshka to share the throne in the Kingdom of Siberians as Queen Meeshka, Her Majesty of Siberians.

I recognize my sister, Princess Meadow, Her Majesty of Siberians.

I bestow upon my brother, Canyon, a Dukedom; forever more he will be known as Duke Canyon of Pennsylvania.

I bestow upon my brother, Biloxi, a Dukedom; forever more he will be known as Duke Biloxi of Mississippi.

I bestow the title of Knight Grand Husky (most senior of Knight ranks) to Echo; forever to be known as Sir Echo, Esquire, Foremost Legal Advisor to the King. Sir Echo receives this title for several reasons: his full name is Merlin's Echo, and Merlin was an advisor to a Welsh King, King Arthur; and, he has for some time now acted as legal counsel to dogs pro bono.

I bestow Knighthood to Jack of New England; forever to be known as Sir Jack of Coastal New England. Sir Jack receives this title for having made the suggestion of King Skyboy's Royal Court.

Over the course of my reign, I expect to bestow titles upon others for contributions to canine society deemed worthy of honor as determined by me (with advice, when requested, from those who are titled).

Those who have been earned title, may email me at kapppack@gmail.com in order to receive this picture for their blog so others will know they belong to my Royal Court.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Hey Pups,

Happy Birthday to Me! I'm really not sure when my birthday is, but today is the day that Mom and Dad decided to celebrate it. They got me right before they moved into our house in February 2004 and figured I was just over a year old at the time. So, they figure my birthday was some where around January 1, 2003. That means I am six years old today.

To celebrate, Mom and Dad bought crab legs and shrimp last night. The little biped ate shrimp cocktail and Mom and Dad had the crab legs dipped in butter. They even shared some of the crab legs with Meadow, Canyon, and I. Then, everyone stayed up really late (except the little biped and Dad who fell asleep on the couch around 11:45) and we watched the big ball drop in Times Square to celebrate the start of my birthday.

This morning, the bipeds were picked up by Gama and Pawpaw, who drove them to meet Great-Gama and Great-Pop at a local fire company for the traditional pork and sauerkraut meal that's always eaten on my birthday in hopes of good luck for me over the next year.

Later, when they came home, the little biped watched Snow White, while Dad used the computer to continue his genealogy research. Dad discovered that I really do have the right to be called King Sky Boy. He found a connection to Welsh royalty on his Mom's side. He has found his earliest ancestor to be King Coel Hen (King Coel the Old, or Old King Cole of the nursery rhyme) who was born in 350 AD. Later on this line led to the title Prince of Wales (although current English monarchy is not related to these original English monarchs). It's quite possible that he will be able to continue tracing this lineage back even further.

Happy New Year everyone!

Kisses, Skyboy
