It's a wonderful you are posting around asking about huskies instead of just rushing out & getting one. Many people get them because of their good looks, without realizing what owning one- or two- or 23, entails. We've had our older dog since she was 5 weeks old, and she's 10 now. I trust her in my own yard only as far as I can see her. If she gets out of sight, she's gone. I've met several neighbors thanks to her little walks on those rare occasions she has snuck out. We now have 6' fencing. Our male is 4, I would never let him off leash outside of an off-leash park. That boy has taken off as I'm putting him into & out of the car more than once! I had another dog (rotti & aust. shep. mix) and the difference was astonishing. She came when called, she came back even if I didn't call, she stayed in the yard, couldn't do enough to please me. I felt like the most important person in her world. On the other hand, I've often said that with Star, I feel more like "the maid", LOL! Seriously, look around, each breed has its own unique qualities & temperment. Huskies truly aren't for everyone.
We love photos here on PT, and we'll look forward to seeing some of yours one of these days.
