    Jack is quite handsome! Hope that you can assist the 2 in working out a living arrangement. Best wishes!

    Star, I will cross my fingers very tight that you and Jack will get to be better pals over time. Or, if that does not happen, that Jack will find another family to be loved by. The pictures of Sherman's family members gave me leaky eyes too. Could you please ask your hu-mom to give you this for me? BIG HUG And one for Jack, too, please.

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    We were all hoping this would work out, but if not, he goes back to his family kennel, he'll always have a loving home there. They are such good people. They make a lifelong committment to every puppy they bring into this world. I wish all breeders were like them!
    Edit* I delivered your hugs!

    I hope things settle down for Jack.
    I don't know if I missed this but how old is he?
    would Star do better with an older male closer to her age?
    just a ramble.
    I hope he learns the rules.

    Star is 10, Jack is 2. My first idea was to look for an older dog, but then the possibility of getting Jack came up, and he feels like family, coming from the same kennel as Sherman. Plus, they know us & really felt it would work out well. We were all hoping for the best. Like I mentioned, he does have a loving home, and we'll continue our search. I'm enjoying him while he's here, and he seems to be enjoying himself.

    Did you take Star with you when you went to pick Jack out? When we are adding another dog to our crew we take the dog who is least likely to get along with the new one - which means its usually Dazzi. Although it is not a sure fire method, we have found some dogs that definitely would cause trouble in our pack and others that seem to be ignored by Dazzi.

    Just a thought.

    Yes, Diana, I took Star. Many of the pictures were from the kennel. They seemed ok together, and the trip back went just fine. I know it takes some time to adjust to a new enviornment.

    Things have calmed down a little. We're gonna see how it goes for a bit before making a decision. Jack seems happy as a lark. I think this boy's taken a shine to me. Star's still avoiding any contact, which has me concerned... we're doing this for her, I want her to be comforable with whomever ends up here. Maybe a few more peaceful days and she'll let her guard down a little. He really is sweet, just ENTHUSIASTIC about EVERYTHING.

    still keeping my fingers crossed that it will work out - but at her age - are you sure she wants this? Did you get Nancy's input?
    I just wonder if she'd rather be the only princess with no other court jesters to take away her affection?? Kind of Like Keegan ( )

    Huskies really do better with more than one dog. She's an alpha without a pack at the moment. Having us humans around is ok, but not the same. Plus, when we're out of the house, she won't be alone. 10 is not that old for a husky, her health is good. And I did speak to Nancy about Jack as a possible companion for Star.
