    I HIGHLY suggest getting a hose attachment for indoors! Either a shower head one, or you can also get them for regular tub faucets. (Or getting a hot water line to the outdoor faucet... and a spigot that combines the hot and cold. I haven't seen this since my parents' house, but i know it exists out there. ...but that is a LOT more expensive of a project than the $5 - $20 bath tub faucet attachment.)

    I found that Koli prefers a LOT cooler water than other dogs i have bathed, but she still REALLY appreciates that it is not the freezing cold of the hose water. I'd never want to bath in that; I'd never make an animal do the same. (Unless it was a polar bear... but that's a different story.)

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    Welcome to Pet Talk!

    I had a good laugh when I saw the funny sleeping position!
    Yep! That's a husky for you!
    My sister has a Husky named Yukon.
    I'm owned by 2 rescued German Shepherds, Sierra and Buddy.

    Oh Mika's so blasted Cute!!!!

    As far as having holes in your fence. I think it would be VERY wise of you to have your fence fixed. Huskies are excape artists and will always look for a way out!! If you don't have the money to have your fence replaced, then a cheap fix would be to buy some pig wire, or chicken wire and attach it over the holes in your fence.

    Kiddie pools are great for dogs that love the water, and they don't cost a lot of money either!

    Welcome! Mika's a very pretty girl! It's wonderful that you adopted her from the shelter, too.

    As you can see, I have a blue-eyed dilute black & white female sibe too - Star. My handsome Sherman is a lt. red & white sibe. Sherman sleeps in funny positions, Star used to like to sleep with her head hanging down lower than her body, silly pup. As Amy suggested, do check to see if there is a self-service wash, it really helps to have the right equipment. Actually, I only bathe mine a couple times a year because huskies do a lot of self-cleaning anyway, and their fur has an oil on it that helps shed dirt. Mine aren't too fond of baths either. Mika looks like she's having a ball with her buddy! Star also likes to grab other dogs with her front paws. Huskies love physical play! Be sure to go to some obedience classes with her, too, it will be fun for both of you.

    Huskies are notorious for escaping - you probably need to improve your fence. Huskies will climb over, dig under, untwine, chew through, & leap over most any kind of fencing. Make sure you microchip her & keep an id on her so hopefully she can be returned. (Star has been returned to us twice) We invested in 6' high kennel fencing - pricey, but we felt necessary.

    Sibes...ya gotta love them!
    Looking forward to more pictures of your lovely Mika.

    Nebo, Keva, Tikeya, Tori, Roxey, Royal, Dakota, Mishka, Kavik, Suka, Star, Sherman, Gracie, sled_dog & glacier's teams... Ninja and China......don't forget Anna!
    (We also have about 20 sibe-mixes on the board.)

    *clearing my throat*

    Ok I know I am not around as much as I used to be but you seemed to have forgotten Sequoia.

    Your Mika is just beautiful. If you haven't figured it out I am owned by an aboslutely beautiful red/white with blue eyes husky by the name of Sequoia.

    You wouldn't happen to be anywhere near State College would you? If so I have a wonderful groomer to recommend.

    She won't let us bathe Sequoia ourselves because it is just too difficult to get the soap out. We only have to take her in a couple of times a year and she stays wonderfully soft and clean and gorgeous.

    Our girl doesn't like any other breed of dog but huskies and other malamutes. One of these days REAL soon I am going to post some pictures of her playing with her husky BFF Maya.

    Welcome to the wonderful world of huskies!!

    I knew there was someone else, but my old brain ain't what it used to be! Well, Denyce, you have GOT to post more pics of your beautiful girl! Can you think of any more sibes we may have forgotten?

    I know I know! Life has been just too busy. But Sequoia has had a couple of play dates now with Maya so hopefully I can post some pics from that soon.

    I can't think of any others but it seems like everytime I log on there are more huskies! YEA! You can't ever get enough huskies!
