So, is Houston going to be a forever pet? I just reread some of your previous posts, and, I'm just not sure what's up. How old is Gracie? How long will you show your Siberian Huskies before you move on to Great Danes? Will you keep them all as pets? I'm not trying to be insulting or ugly, I'm just lost. And, if you don't want to answer this, that's fine...but, what did you meant by "practice dog?" When she retires from showing, are you keeping her?
