Oh!! I love I love I love I love!

I've had them since I was a kid! You can see my 4 year old boy, Blizzard, on my profile! Feel free to add!

I love the name Blizzard! That's adorable!

I am looking for like minded lovers or owners of siberian huskies to be friends with. As you can see I have 3 of them. They are my babies. I have one friend already who owns huskies, but would love to find some more to talk with about them and share stories.

I don't even want to imagine the shedding with 3!!! Dog hair is part of : my wardrobe, my food, my home decoration... and I only have one!

Huskies are the best! My girl is just the best dog in the world!

I have one. She's getting really old though. She going to be 13 this winter. The vet can't believe it. She's not very social anymore, due to her age. I think she's getting a little deaf. But she can still run like crazy when she wants to.

me me me!!!, the most beautiful breed in the whole universe!! I used to have one, Alasska, but she passed away in 2006 at the age of 14 years old I still miss my baby!!!
I wanna have a husky again, but cant right now in the place im living.

We had one growing up in Vermont, her name was Chena (after the river in Alaska). I've always wanted another one but I live in the desert now and that just seems cruel to not have them able to play in the snow. Love the breed though.

I must have done something wrong with my huskies because people seem to love the breed. I have two females and based on my experience, I will never, ever get another husky.

The older one is almost 7 years old. She is CRAAAAZY when company comes over. She jumps all over them, howling. She just loves company, but most people, unless you are a dog lover, do not want that crazy attention when they come to my house. Needless to say, I don't have company over much. She also is extremely posessive with her "treats". If it is something she is not supposed to have, I'm likely to get bit trying to take it from her if I don't take it the right way. I have a 1 1/2 year old daughter who doesn't understand that when the dog has my daughter's toys, she can't just take it from her. Then, the other day, I accidentally kinda stepped on her tail when she was laying under the bed and had it sticking out and she growled at me! She can be loving sometimes, but it has to be under her terms.

The other one is 4 years old. This dog has the worst anxiety I have ever seen. She pants constantly and will poop and pee in the house the minute you leave. If you stay home with her all day, she doesn't mess in the house at all. She once shut herself in the bathroom when nobody was home and freaked out so much that she tore and tore at the door until she almost got through the other side. We replaced the door and she did it again. All this and she is on prozac, it helps, but she is still nuts. And she is an escape artist. She is constantly looking for ways to get out of the fenced in back yard. She can be a very sweet dog, but she doesn't like my daughter either.

I don't trust either one of these dogs with my daughter and I have to constantly be on alert that they are not left in the same room with her. We had all of these issues before I had my daughter but it has gotten worse, I suppose because they are jealous of her. If you can't tell, these dogs are a huge source of stress in my life. They do have their good traits and I love them, but I will NEVER get another husky based on my experiences.

oh i love them!, where do you live????????

My wife(rackie515) and I have a 5 year old, Blaze. Feel free to add us. I will post pics when I get a chance.

Sorry to hear you have had trouble with your Huskies but why on earth is she on Prozac, was that prescribed by a vet?! If so, change your vet! Drugs to control dogs is only masking issues rather than actually dealing with them. Prozac is known to cause an escalation in the bad behaviour rather than calm them down. Have you seen the side effects of Prozac given to dogs?..... one of them is hyperactivity!

What you have described sounds like you are not in control of the environment hence the behaviour you are experiencing. However, it is something that can be worked on and sorted. Huskies are very strong willed animals and they need to know, in no uncertain terms, who is boss. In the absence of authority they will run amock, period! The issues don't sound that bad in all fairness and by adopting certain techniques you will be amazed at the difference. I recommend you do a search for a 'dog listener' in your area and get a consultation, we use the methods they use and they work a treat and needs you to only to follow some simple steps consistently and calmly. Diet could also be contributing to any hyperactivity in the dogs, if you are feeding them food that is high in protein and full of additives then perhaps try changing to food with natural ingredients is a way to go.

If you have any questions, let me know. FYI - I am not a dog behaviourist or an 'expert' however we work closely with a Husky rescue organisation so see these comments quite a lot when people are having trouble with their huskies.

I hope this helps in some way?

Its not dog hair its a designer accent that adds ambiance!

lol, yeah, when our 4 blow their coats, which is normally at the same time, husky hair becomes the new fashion and the new diet

She passed away last sunday, was 13 years old :frown:

Awww. sorry to hear that. Another beautiful Husky makes her way over the Rainbow Bridge. Run free
