Isometic. It naturally forms in a few different crystal forms including cubic and dodecahedron, all of which are isometric (meaning all axis are equal in length and at 90 degree angles to each other)

Do your dogs recognize certain types of vehicles? I drive a Jeep Wrangler and Shaqua knows what a wrangler looks like. She knows mine and will always go to jump in it, but if we are riding around she always watches the other Jeeps that drive by. It's like she knows "Hey, that car is just like ours". When we go for walks she always gives the Jeep wranglers that drive by a double take, but any other car doesn't even exist.
I've never seen them stare at cars, but they know exactly what our cars sounds like when we drive in the driveway or daycare to get them. They just know that we are here to pick them up or get them out of their crates. Whoever gets home first, when they are out and running around and hear mine or my boyfriends car coming, they just go an wait at the door for us to walk up the stairs!
And we live in an apartment building, so its pretty impressive that they can tell the difference between our cars and the neighbors.

I have been so incredibly proud of Shaqua. She is being the perfect big sister. They play well, they walk together well, she is teaching her boundaries.... Although they have ganged up on me a couple times. This could be bad. LOL. Yesterday they woke me up at 5am, both of them barking at me because it was certainly time for a walk and breakfast....so much for daylight savings! LOL It's funny because Shaqua will sleep in until around 9-10am but she wanted to make sure I knew it was time for Journey to get up...
Shaqua was introduced to cotton for the first time. We've lived in the South for over a year now and I figured it was time. The University has a farm right off campus you can take your dogs to so they can romp. Shaqua was given a new tractor toy I just love this picture Getting some loving. <3
And finally, a cute video of her trying to talk to her sister in the crate https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10100319596283851

So cute! In regards to the vehicle thing...I don't know that Bode notices cars, but now that he knows Grandpa (my dad) comes to visit on a motorcycle sometimes, he gets super excited anytime he hears a bike.

The air smells so wonderful! We went for a jog in the woods today Followed by a nice grooming with some conditioning spray, both Shaqua and Journey. Then it was nap time <3

Beautiful Shaqua!
Poor Journey with the cone of shame, but she looks happy and on the mend. Glad to see her doing well.
Thank you Journey threw a terrible fit when I took Shaqua for that hike and left her behind. I think I may have to do it more often just so she doesn't get jealous or lonely like that. She was just screaming! I'm glad my neighbors weren't home... ha ha

Shaqua was very happy that her little sister was able to join us on our jog/hike after many weeks of having to leave her behind.
I am so proud of my Shaqua Skyy. Normally she lets Journey walk all over her but now she has this blue jay... I don't know what it is, she just cries and cries for it. If Journey gets a hold of it and makes the blue jay start crying then Shaqua will run up, roll Journey, take the bird gently and nuzzle it around crying like this. It is so adorable. I don't know what she is thinking.... I wish I could read her mind.
Bode does the crying while nuzzling with one specific toy as well. He will also just put his mouth around it and lay there super still with his eyes closed or half closed, like he's zoned out.

My first Siberian, Sasha, used to cry like this after I after I had my first child - the baby was colicky and every time she cried, Sash cried, too, right besides us, snout on my leg.
It makes me sad and happy at the same time. My poor girl, it seems like she just loves this toy that cries when bitten too hard and wants to protect it.
My first girl, Tasha had a little stuffed toy that we called her baby. She would get very concerned if anyone squeaked it and have to come over and make sure it was ok. She would then carry it away and lay down and lick it and snuggle with it. Diz has a stuffed squirrel he's very emotionally attached to and will just carry it around and whine after dinner sometimes. Silly boy!

Shaqua and Journey share the same seat very well.....This was the first time they both rode in the Jeep with the top down together.
Shaqua says "the kid can play with toys all day, all I want to do is cuddle with my mom"
Shaqua wants to eat a flower... she actually took a petal off shortly after this photo. Look at her eyes! It tells all. lol
