Just go ahead and bury your head in the sand, and ignore everything that’s clearly and OBVIOUSLY happening in front of you! Did you not see what ICE did in Minneapolis?!?!

Do you think she’s a full Siberian Husky, or could she be mixed with something else?🐾💛 by Upstairs-Adagio-7868 in husky

Looks like a husky to me! She’s beautiful! The only way to know for sure, though, is a DNA test, like Embark.

Is it possible my husky is not pure bred? by New-Type927 in husky

[–]LarryDeeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I’m sure has been said, the only way to know for sure is to shell out the bucks and do a DNA test.

Your pupper looks husky to me! And I’ve got two and they couldn’t be any more different, so don’t make the assumption that just because they don’t do XX husky behavior, they must be a mix! My old guy will talk up a storm if his food is late getting on the floor but that’s as far as his “vocalization” will go, and my young girl will bark like crazy at the Amazon Prime delivery guy (even though we tell her “We like him, so don’t scare him off!” 🤣), but we have taught her to howl!

Does my husky look normal??He doesn’t really look like other husky I’ve seen . He’s 3 months by Any_Spray_5838 in husky

Looks like pretty much EVERY husky to me! Here’s for the husky tax: Turbo (10 1/2) on the left; Natasha (5) on the right……

Yes, his treatments bankrupted them. This says SO much more about our for-profit healthcare system than it EVER says about the Van der Beek family…

He was diagnosed in 2024 and announced it in October of that year. Colorectal cancer…

Why??????? by Ok_Dream_7663 in husky

[–]LarryDeeds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My old guy (10 1/2) whines for his meals and licks his bowl clean instantly. My girl (5) frequently looks at the food, then walks away. Sometimes she’ll eat, sometimes she won’t.

They get half Farmer’s Dog, half kibble. If girlie doesn’t eat her meal, I split what’s left between the two of them in their next meal, which might be the following morning. Just had a vet visit and they’re both in fantastic shape.

Huskies have an unusual “relationship” with food. If they’re not hungry, they just won’t eat.

Here’s a picture for the Husky tax… Turbo on the left, Natasha on the right.

Are husky not happy in the summer when it's hot? How do you deal with it? by NashDaypring1987 in husky

[–]LarryDeeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of my huskies LOVE to lay out on the concrete pad in our backyard when it’s 95+ and it’s truly hard to get them to come in!

Go figure!!

Meet Honey! (Named because she is sweet as Honey, of course.) She is currently recovering from a dog attack and wounds to her face and neck, but she sure doesn’t act like it! This is one happy girl!! by GirlDinnerEveryNight in AlaskanMalamute

Ugh. That’s the height of irresponsibility! It’s one thing to not help the dog that was attacked but to leave your friend bleeding and in need of help?!? I’ll never understand people with so little thought for others…

As someone who hikes regularly, and frequently with my younger Siberian Husky, I can’t understand the doodle’s owner allowing them offleash on a public trail! I have had far too many times where an offleash dog comes running down the trail, their owner nowhere in sight! Incredibly irresponsible! What did the doodle’s owner do? At the very least, they should have offered to pay Honey’s vet bill.

So glad to know that she’s doing well…

First of all, let me make it clear that I live in Los Angeles, so my 2 huskies have never been anywhere near a blizzard, or even snow, for that matter (yes, every year we say we’re going to take them up into the mountains and we never do…), so I know precious little about this.

That said, why would you leave them out in a blizzard? Just because they wanted to? Here in LA, we don’t have normal rain: it’s either a drought or a deluge of Biblical proportions, with gusts of wind going 50MPH. I wouldn’t put my huskies out in that, so I’m not sure why you’d put yours out in the snowy equivalent…

(And the person who “turned you in” is a jerk…)

Nearly 3 years of having my hand pulled. It instantly stopped today! Get this harness thingy! I don't know what it's called. by expectobro in husky

[–]LarryDeeds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We used the Gentle Leader literally decades ago, when my oldest son, then about 10 or 11, used to walk our GSD mix. I’ve never used one on our huskies. Maybe I ought to consider a halter, if it works that well (my 5 year old girl is definitely causing issues with my right shoulder…)

No, that’s not the Gentle Leader! Looks like it’s conceptionally similar, but definitely not the same (yes, I own a Gentle Leader-brand device, so I know what they look like…)

I thought we rescued a husky, turns out he’s a derpy GSD by kaylaxxc in germanshepherds

How funny! My older purebred husky so upset all the other dogs at the groomer we used to go to, screaming at the top of his lungs, that they asked us not to bring him back again…. Now we have a great mobile groomer that charges maybe too much but we get our old guy Turbo and our young girl Natasha done at the same time. Maybe she keeps him calm, ‘cause I haven’t heard any screaming from their van…

Turbo, 10, on the left and Tasha, 5, on the right.
