    The new pup is adorable. Can't you just keep Yukon for a pet though? Does he have to be a sled dog???

    Actually, yes, as I do run sled dogs, that is why I got him. To train him, etc. I would LOVE to keep him, but he is not working out the way I had hoped. All my dogs are like just a pet, but I have a hobby with each of them (training, sledding, running, agility, obedience....) I just don't want to feel like I don't give him enough time, ya know Taking out the other dogs for a run, and him being left behind. Not that he isn't happy here, but I think Yukon will be happy with someone to have him as a pet, he is very friendly and loving . (hope that made sense)

    Ditto. Hopefully his next home will keep him for longer than a year.

    Not bashing just curious, what if one of your other dogs gets hurt and can't pull anymore? Do you find them a new home and replace them? What if this new puppy decides he doesn't like to pull? Will he also be found a new home and be replaced? Don't get me wrong, I am glad you aren't just dumping Yukon back as the shelter, but it just seems sad that he is being rehomed for no other reason than he didn't do what you thought he should do. It's not like he doesn't get along with other dogs, causes major destruction, has horrid and dangerous behavior, he just doesn't want to pull. If one of your other dogs suddnely can't do what you expect of them in their certain "discipline", do they also get rehomed and replaced? I am only asking because I can't imagine doing that if I truly loved my dog, I'd make a place for him to just be him, and make separate time for him to just go on a walk etc.. Not asking to rip into you, I really am just wondering.

    The pup is cute, it just loses something to know another dog is being "replaced" so I guess for me it's not as exciting, I don't know, just seems sad.

    Thanks Jess for the great sig of my kids!


    I love you baby, passed away 03/04/2008
