Any husky owners?

[soniceffect]

Have never thought to ask in here, but does anyone else here keep huskies, or am I the only one?

I have 2 myself both male and me and my wife are running a husky forum. Amazing how your home life can meet your internet life lol

Parents used to breed Huskies when I was growing up. At one point we had 21 adult dogs and 16 puppies. Don't have one now because my wife doesn't like them. I guess one of her step-fathers while growing up had one that wasn't well behaved so its a "bad breed".

Of course she wants rodent dogs like a Chihuahua or a Beagle. I'd rather have a big dog. Currently we have a Lab Mix that is about 100 lbs.

... Wayne's parents were breeding Huskies when he came to life... strangely, i have a vision... ROFL

Actually they didn't own a dog until I was 3 or 4.

Big dogs freak me out -- cause I'm always sitting down and never realize they come up beside me and when I look over there's a face right next to mine. I jump every time. But I really really want a Golden Retriever, but my parents won't get a dog. And my aunt has a Yellow Lab (I think it is pure, not 100% sure) that is huge. It's head is about twice my size... It's paws are huge... They always joke it's father was a small pony and mother was a lab...

Hi Sonice
So strange that you would post his today as I'm looking to purchase a husky for my daughter but not until we move north, into a cooler climate. My daughgter has had her heart set on a Husky for a few years now and I've finally caved and said ok.

Magna. What a sweet picture. Love it. Momma looks very happy and content, probably a bit tired too

Yeah, three puppies were quite a challenge, very exhausting.
I live in Romania and it's like 40 degrees Celsius in the summer here and -30 in the winter.
Though i had her take baths twice a day, they're pretty strong
But indeed, they are cold resistant.

Unless you live in the desert, you may buy yourself a husky... though it'll need a "special treatment" like daily baths in the summer and lots of hydrating food.

My angel loves water. When i took her in the park, she'd be jumping in the water like Golden Retrievers (another breed that i love, but wouldn't trade ).

Here's another picture of her.
