OT- Looking for a Husky - Page 1

Hey, I've been asked by 2 of my friends for reccomendations on where they can get a good, healthy Husky puppy and I have not been able to convert them thus far :) Anybody have any suggestions where I can direct them?

Thank you

Melissa

Go down the menu on the left to switch breeds,  select your breed of interest and switch.
There you will find the breed forum, and ads on the right.
Good hunting.

Two moons, you don't go to the Husky part of this site much I take it.  Very few actually use the Husky part of this site.  I have four Huskies, though I found none of them on this website.   To the poster, shoot me a pm, and I can give you references of good reputable breeders.

I did notice a few cob webs in the corners yes...


Why the secrecy, in PM?
just curious.

Thank you for recommendations. I will deffinately pass them along.

Two Moons, the only reason why I ask is because I'd rather send my friends to someone whom people know to be reputable. If I were looking for a GSD or Mali I would know where to go, but this is not a GSD.

Thank you all,
Melissa

Moons, I can post it on here too,  I just didn't care to carry a convo on the board.  I'll post later tonight after I get off work.  I've got a lot to do, but I'll post links tonight when I get a chance.

4 Huskies GSDguy?  Do you use them for pulling or something, or do you just like the breed?
 
I've never owned a Husky, but have always wondered what the fascination is.  They are quite popular around here, in fact there is a breeder just up the road.   Truthfully, I've never wanted one, because all I hear is that they are hard to keep home.  (We are country bumpkins here ;) )

Soooo, I'm curious, why do you like them?

Oops, computer is messing up. I love the breed, but they are NOT for everyone.  We have a big fenced in yard, but we also go running every morning, normally about 5 miles....a lot of times more.....  Sometimes we go biking, but I don't feel too safe on the bike so I plan to get some good roller blades and start going down some of the straight roads.   One time we went to our friends land,  40 acres.....lots of steep hills,  good flat long pieces too, creeks, etc.  I ran the bigger guys on the "mule"  like a golf cart....I think we were probably going 10-15 mph the majority of the way for over 45 minutes.  These guys could run for hours if you let them, they absolutely love it.  I love the looks of the breed, and the intelligence.  Many deem them stubborn or stupid, but I highly disagree with that.  You just have to understand them and know what makes them work as a pack, and how to maintain balance with them.  My guys don't care to roam.....I think the running every morning helps to get that out of them.  I'll attach a picture of my Husky pack, inluding my youngest one "Kiara"  who still has a lot of growing to do (we don't do the running with her due to her stil growing).  The pup and the more medium colored male are from my breedings.  The lightest colored dog is Sierra.  For anyone who says Huskies can't do obedience, they haven't met her.  She has a huge deisre to please, so does Max, the black and white Husky.    These were all taken after our run, the first two pictures being the last ones taken....after the others.  We run/walk....then they come back and play and chill out.

 

Theres 7 pictures so I tried to shrink them as much as possible. These are from a week ago.

 

 The next one is kind of big, but this was zoomed in on the camera, and had to be cropped also due to me being so far away.  A little blurry on Sierra.
