we are adopting...

[lute]

yup! we're adopting a dog! one of my brothers and i went to the local shelter today. remember the white siberian husky i told you all about? he's still there and only has until the end of the week. we walked him, played with him, he's great with other dogs of all sizes and he didn't even notice the cats. i don't understand why he's not been adopted. he just needs a bath and a good brushin. i took some pics.

thanks everyone! those are great names! i really like Grizzly and Ocean! more suggestions would be great! i like people names too. :) he didn't have a name at the shelter. just a number. :(

he'll be comming home in a couple days. after he's neutered. i can't wait until Gracie gets to meet her new buddy! she loved Kodie. she sulked for days after he was adopted. hopefully this guy will charm her just as much.

These are some of the names I like:

Frosty
Yugi
Sanyu
Ollie
Nanuq - polar bear
Siku - ice
Sesh - bear
Suka - fast

[BCollie_Kelly]

thats great! I remember when you first posted pictures of him and I thought he was gorgeous!

As for names... I've liked...

Polar
Apollo
Ashen
Alloy

if I think of any others I'll post them :)

[lute]

i love the names Timber, Polar and Apollo. i'm making a list. ;)

GoldenLuv, it was very hard to leave him last week, but it was EXTREAMLY hard to leave him this time.

zoomer, he'll be a permanent pet. unless for some reason he doesn't work out. the animal control officer told me that if he didn't work out that i could bring him back. of course i would NEVER bring him back. i would find him a home that he would work in. i'd try not to think of something like that happening though. ;)

Here are some suggestions:

Cooper
Dakota
Dune
Grizz
Levi
Mookie


I got the suggestions from this website: http://www.angelfire.com/on3/happyhuskies/names.html

They only go up to the letter "m" though. I can't seem to find a link to the other letters.

Anyhow, good luck naming him. His such a cutie. Love the eyes!

[cloverfdx]

Thankyou so much for saving a life, heres to many fun filled years and happiness.

Hmm as for names, how about....

Ahanu - He laughs
Airell - Nobleman
Allard - Absolute in spirit
Forney
Anakin
Appollo
Arvin - Friend to all
Satchel
Skah - White ;)

I will keep adding as i think of more ;).

[lizbud]

Congrats on your new pup. He's very handsome. Looks like people have
already given a lot of good name ideas. :)

[cyber-sibes]

Well, look what I nearly missed because I've been so busy lately!
YIPPEEEE!!!!
He is gorgeous, I'm sooooo glad he'll gat to live with you! Gracie's gonna love having another sibe to play with! Lots of great name suggestions already, I like Blizzard, Flurry, Ocean (there's a sibe named "Oceano" at Everything Husky) I liked this, too. I's kind of different, and sure fits:
- Kapu (it means white wolf)
Then there's Avalanch, Sasquatch, and of course Glacier (although that might get confusing on this site ;) )

[JenBKR]

YAY congratulations!! That's great, and he is such a cutie :D Good luck with the names!

[lv4dogs]

CONGRATS!!! He's so very handsome. I can't stop looking at him, he looks a LOT like Nanook did when he was younger, minus the blue eyes of course.

I love the name Ocean, what a creative name Tamara. Polar is a good name too (might be biast on that one, Nanook's name means Polar Bear in Inuit). ;)

[k9krazee]

What a handsome boy! Congrats!!

[*LabLoverKEB*]

CONGRATULATIONS!!! How exciting! I really like the name 'Blizzard' for him. Good luck with him!

[Anita Cholaine]

He's absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations :D

[Logan]

Congratulations, Lexie. I hope you will all be very happy!!! :)

[MajesticCollies]

Adopting is great. I am a volunteer for Tri State Collie Rescue. I always tell people first about adopting before they even look at puppies to buy. Its a great way to go especially for the dogs that are looking for a forever loving home. Congrats on your good looking boy. Name suggestion? Kola Its a city located in Siberia. Always fitting for a husky

[buttercup132]

CONGRADS!!!!

I like the name Lucy
or Scuttles

[lute]

thanks again everyone! i stopped by animal control again today on my home from work. i brushed him out and spent some time bonding with him. i think he remembered me because as soon as he saw me he ran up to the fence and gave me a "WOOOOOOO" :D i think i'm gonna name him Ocean. i called him that today and it seemed to fit him.

[Flatcoatluver]

AHHH He sounds perfect!!! I bet he did remember you, and I think he sounds like he will fit in perfect with your family!! Ocean is a great name!

[Suki Wingy]

Congrats!!! I love the name Ocean or Oceano, very pretty to match his pretty blue eyes!

[lute]

OMG! i go get Ocean tomorrow morning!!! i'm sooooo excited! i'm gonna have such a hard time sleeping tonight! i have Oean's crate set up, collar and leash setting out, treats for our ride home, ID tag on his collar, etc! i talked to one of the animal control officers today. he was so happy to hear that he was adopted. he even told me he'd open 15mins early for me tomorrow.LOL
