That's Daisy, my neighbor's dog. It's very rare that I get out of the yard without Daisy tagging along. If she had a better coat, I'd put her in harness with the team, but she gets terrible snowballs in her fur. She's in great shape though. She runs a lot of miles with us.

She actually lives about a mile from us, but she can get to our place without crossing any roads. She's allowed to roam and is very social. So whenever she hears barking or excitement at our place she comes over to check it out. She comes on every sled run, walk, bike ride ect with us. Most of my dogs like her and she's learned which ones don't. When one of those is with me, she stays right beside me and leaves the dogs alone. She's great friends with Chum, but they cause utter havoc together in the yard. If Daisy and Chum are in my yard together, there will be a fight. They start the chaos and then back out and watch the scraps!

Her owners aren't mean to her. They feed her and are gentle with her. They just don't give her the attention or exercise she needs. She gets that at my place. It's not an ideal situation, but Daisy seems healthy and happy.

These are terrific! I don't know anything about Huskies or sledding so it's fascinating to see the snaps and read the text! Could you give them skritches for me, too, please.

Thanks,

I thought that might be her tagging along, but not sure from the back.

I think I've said this before but, I am so glad Daisy lives close to you guys.
