New KyJen Dog Games Beats Canine Boredom!
Gibson is keeping this toy all to himself!
KyJen did it again! They've come up with some great puzzles to not only keep our dogs busy, but challenge their mind and skills too! We received two new totally "pawsome" dog games from KyJen to review, their super cool Moon Rover Rescue Ball where the object is for our fupal to try and get the squeaky blue moon rover toys from rolling around inside the larger six inch blue rubber ball. It's very challenging! (Shh...I gave Gib a little help!) It's price is right around the $19.99 range, and definitely worth it for the hours of fun entertainment it provides! Gibson really loves playing with this "ball!" He is our resident puzzle expert and he rose to the challenge with great interest! To add a little more fun, I added a treat. The funny part, Gib was way more interested in getting the rover out than the treat!
Yes! That squeaky rover does fit in that ball!
As you will see from the video below that shows just how entertained they are from these toys, he even picked it up and brought it over to his bed, claiming this toy his! This is going to be a favorite for a long time to come! No boredom here with this toy. Gibson gives the Moon Rover Rescue Ball a four-paws up rating!
Chloe found the treat!
Chloe and Harley were excited to play with the Paw Flapper puzzle where treats are hidden inside and the dog's challenged to not only open up the flap to try and find the treat, but there is a wheel that rotates inside hiding the treat, so they must also learn how to turn the wheel while sniffing out the treat in one of the chambers under the "flap." This game ranges $17.99 in price, and it's the second KyJen puzzle we have (we previously tried and reviewed their Paw Hide game).
This game really puts their superb sniffing to the test! At first I thought the rotating wheel might prove to tough a challenge, but it just made it all the more fun for the Sibe mind! A challenged canine mind is never a bored one! Chloe and Harley give the Paw Flapper puzzle a four-paws up rating each! So if you are looking for a last minute Christmas present, or if your pup's birthday is coming up (we have four birthdays in January), or are even planning ahead to their Valentines Day present, the FiveSibeshighly recommend you check out these KyJen toysavailable in many stores and online through Amazon and the KyJen website. (Shhh...don't tell the Sibes, but they are each getting a KyJen Long Body Gator Squeaker Mat toythis Christmas!)
Both the Moon Rover Rescue and the Paw Flapper puzzles get a big four-paws up rating!
We recently got a Paw Flapper toy from Mr. Chewy. Our resident puzzle expert, Max, learned to open the paws pretty quickly while the others spin it. Keeps 'em busy!

Welcome to the FiveSibes blog! At our home, we are the proud parents to five beautiful, lovable, energetic full-blooded Siberian Huskies whom we fondly refer to as "the kids!" Out of the five, four are siblings, three of them littermates! We also have an "Honorary Husky Cat" who adopted us, and most recently, she brought home another furpal, a feral kitten who has now adopted us, too! These furbabies are truly are a part of our family and we love them so! Through this blog, you will get to meet each one of them and share in a laugh or a cry at their fun-loving, crazy, wacky, and sometimes worrisome antics.
I first began the idea of creating a FiveSibes blog quite awhile ago when one of our Sibes, my wooly boy, Gibson, developed seizures shortly after his third birthday. When I began writing my journal of his medical journey, I had started posting entries on other social media as a way of connecting to others who also experienced the same with their dogs. Through this medium, I was able to connect with some pretty terrific dog-loving folks, both owners of Sibes, as well as other breeds,who I am happy to now call my friends.
My intention for this blog is to write about "a day in the life of" the FiveSibes, bringing thoughts, ideas, photos, tips, and discoveries to the forefront of discussion about the wonderful breed, as well as all things canine with others who share the same passion and love for their furbabies as we do.
We also hope to help spread the word that there are so many abandoned and homeless Sibes out there who could use a loving home. Too many times folks bring home a Husky simply for their beauty, but do not do the research to understand the breed and its needs and then turn the dog into a shelter when they can't/won't care for it anymore. Please visit the Sibe rescues listed on this site if you are considering bringing a Siberian Husky into your home. There are so many beautiful furbabies just waiting for a loving, forever home. Maybe yours could be one!
Let's make this forum a nice, comfy, polite place for everyone to visit--bring along your darling dog (or dogs), pull up a chair, have a cup of coffee, and let's talk canine!
