I was just searching the pets section on craigslist the other day and I realized how many people have husky puppies/adults up on there. It really seems like a problem to me, how many there are. Anyway, I came across this and thought it was pretty cool. More people should do stuff like this. Maybe I will start...!

omg it is sooo bad up here! some of my rescue friends started flagging them all! ya it is bad!


I think I will do that in my area! lol

You should ! Maybe even provide a link to some husky info sites...it can't hurt...
Not only are there husky breeders all over CL but a bunch of people with found/lost ads up there (as mentioned in a different thread), which is also another red flag! Not to mention the occasional "wanted" post ...looking for a husky on CL? if it's not a rescue, i say yikes to that!

I am writing one now. There is a video on you tube that we give to people interested. I have a mal but all the same applies!

I probably will be flagged. lol

That's awesome !! hahaha. I love the list of husky/mal traits vs. other dogs. The if you want a dog that..."Eats and drinks out of the bowls cleanly" one made me laugh!

I know some of those are funny. I have one person post. I want a dog that listens to you like a husky. I was like boy, you were mislead. He told me he has sooo much experience with the breeds. I go no you haven't because of your CL ad. lol

hahahah oh man. people are ridiculous sometimes . It's like you don't buy a stickshift car if you don't know how to drive it, so don't buy an animal if you don't know how to take care of it ! It amazes me how many people think just because they've owned one dog they know them all...

I like the premise of the orignal CL post about the traits/issues with the breed, but the grammatical errors make my brain hurt!

that is why I fixed it. I hope. lol

HAHAHA!! It's my inner English teacher coming out. I may have been out of the classroom for 2 years, but I still remember some things, even if I don't demonstrate it online.

Sorry, I never did well in english. I am a science and math girl. lol

I got A's because I worked hard.

Trust me, Gladah, as an English Major I know what you mean. I may not capitalize or use punctuation sometimes but simple spelling and grammar errors irk me too !

Erica, can't see your page. Has it been removed?

I am not seeing it either

It might have been flagged! I haven't gotten a email about it...

nope here it is

I didn't correct some of the errors. crap! lol

Not that I need ANOTHER dog, but I couldn't help but call this guy about this beautiful girl! The entire call was so awkward and he was the biggest liar ever! Ad says he paid $1,000 for the dog, but when I called he told me he bought her for $700 from a pet store. He said he was selling the dog to pay for his rent! I asked if she had any training and his response was "uhhh ... she doesn't pee in the house, she goes outside". I asked if she was crate trained "uhhh ... whats a crate? I don't know what that is". He couldn't answer any of my questions! Also, asked him what his rehoming fee was and he told me $500-$600 for a 5-month old pup. Then he was like "oh well, a lady offered me $350, maybe you can beat that". He didn't seemed like he cared about this poor dog at all or who she even went to! Some people really disgust me!

F-ing idiot

those were my exact words when I hung up the phone!

I would have too. I would have hung up on the whats a crate or the training part.

people that do this upset me so much.. they decide they can't afford a dog because it has health issues..

A Husky..

A great dane puppy..

I just don't understand they should contact a rescue and get these dogs rehome correctly instead of listing on CL
