smokin5s Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I've been wanting to get one... fell in love with one the other day at the pet store... wifey wants a smaller dog since we already have a yellow lab... and as far as shedding, our lab sheds just as much as my old Collie did.

Aaron Posted January 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Yeah, we are moving in April, and until then we have a football field size dog park in our apartment complex. So far she has been great. peed inside twice, one poop and one pee outside so far! The hair is def a downside lol, but we are able to handle it. I just bought stock in lint rollers.

MrMeanGreen Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Lint rollers won't be enough. Wait until she get's older and molts. You've been warned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Posted January 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 She is rediculously laid back. Our only efforts are trying to let Lucy get used to her. Zoey is a great dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CbrGirl Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 One more tip. Get her use to you playing with her feet. Lay her on her back and mess with her nails. This will pay off when she older and you go to clip her nails. Husky are notorious for hating their paws/nails messed with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty bad, but we stuck with it and now she is awesome. She pooped her cage, so I just cleaned her paws, so that is the start. lol. I forgot how cleaning up poop sucked.

Aaron Posted January 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Awwww she's soo cute!!! huskies are my favorite! I have heard only good things about them. Well besides the shedding, running away, and now aparently the nails thing. But their overall demeanor is supposed to be great. She is mega cute.

Nitrousbird Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Socialize her well and early with a lot of different dogs. Huskys tend to love all people, but not other animals (excluding the ones they were raised with). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 True. We had Nakita (Husky) and Migloo (Wolf/Shepard mix) that were raised together from two months old. When Nakita went into her first heat cycle about 1yo, she attacked Migloo to "protect" us from her getting too close. We had to get rid of Migloo for that reason since she was now aggressive with her from that point. Nakita also got aggressive with other dogs at the dog park when they approached us. But she loved people all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinwebb Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 When i had my husky we had neighbors with pitbulls that were constantly getting loose and walking in our yard. Its the only time i have seen her show her teeth and growl like she was about to attack i knew she was just trying to protect me. One day they got loose while she was outside and both tried to attack her so i put an end to them coming over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
