Pics from this weekend

The twins...






Trying to catch one of those flying Bumble Bugs




Bone

cute pic of her with her hand on his head. and the "Trying to catch one of those flying Bumble Bugs" is funny looks like she is about to spin and chase her tail.

LOL Ronin, I have never seen Mishka chase her tail before! actually, none of my Huskies ever have, how weird! Thank you Ronin!

Mishka is loving her new ball. I posted a pic of her and the ball on Instagram, I was contacted by the inventor, how cool is that! anyways,  this ball bounces on water too! its really cool!
















Mishka is gonna be a zombie for Halloween  

Ha ha... love the Zombie pose.

Which ball is that?

@dvflyer LOL, she was actually going after the ball but the ball didn't quite make it in the shot she looks like a zombie though! Hahaha.

The ball isn't made specifically for dogs, it's a kids ball, it's cheap though, like $10. It's a Wabosa Moonball, these things have bounce! Up to 100ft. The design, with the little craters, makes a pop sound when it hits the ground, and I'm not sure if it's the design or the flagstone in my backyard but once it comes back to the ground, it can shoot off in any direction, LOL. I did a lot of getting it out of the canyon cuz my dogs are lazy Mishka loves this thing! Normally she gives me the ball back but this one she likes to hold onto, hahaha.

she is adorable carrying her ball, cool zombie pic, hahaha.

Thank you Ronin! Mishka loves playing with ball toys, Kohdi not so much, he prefers stuffed toys he can tear apart, haha...they both love sticks though

Sticks are the best. Love free toys!

LOL, free is always good! Just gotta watch for splintering. Mishka was pooping once, seemed to be having trouble, as in she kept spinning around and squatting over and over, she let out a squeak and a small, sharp, chunk of wood came out. I take any stick away now that comes apart.

our ferrets had a sock fetish the would collected them out of the hamper even if they were clean and hide them.

that stick is amazing, nice pics of them playing, they are so cute.

Thank you Ronin! hahaha, ferrets are cute like that


My pretty little girl

Love her profile pics... Coincidentally, Mishka is one of my wife's nicknames.

she looks so relaxed by the pol. beautiful profile pic, she is so fluffy.

@dvflyer Thank you! I love when I can get good face shots of her

Really!!! thats interesting, how did your wife get that nickname? From what I know, Mishka is really a boys name (means "bear") however, Ive also read its universal which, apparently its not, haha. My Mishka had a couple other names in the running though, "Ice" (ice queen, haha), Annika (which is still my favorite but it sounds too much like my last female husky's name) but Mishka is the one I chose. I love the name

Thank you Ronin! her fur hasnt fully recovered yet from what I think was her food but she still has an awesome coat

Not sure exactly how she got it. Happened before we met. Her name is Michelle. Friends called her Mish. I think Mishka was an extension of that.

I love that last picture, Jimmy! Kohdi looks like “omg, go away” Lol. Ziva looks at Wolf like that a lot. He can be persistent…

@dvflyer that's pretty cool! On Instagram I was questioned by a woman why I named Mishka a boys name, haha. She explained she did the same thing by naming her girl husky Mishka and was just curious why I did it. I told her Mishka was the equivalent of "Michael" I thought, and possibly "Michelle" as well because the list of names I looked at lists Mishka as universal, boy or girl name. She is not from Russia but where she is from, they speak either the same or a similar language and told me no, it's not, LOLOL, and that people, in her opinion, see the "a" on the end of Mishka and assume it's a girls name. Anyways, we are two people on Instagram with a female husky named Mishka by the way, Kohdi I thought was universal as well but apparently it's a girls name, hahaha, did I mess up or what?! I think their names fit them though! Not because they're boyish or girlish, they're just pretty names that I pictured on each dog. Kohdi, to me, is a chill Southern California boy, just laid back, takes nothing seriously, I pictured a surfer dude, lol.

@DarkDiamond thank you Graham! I loveeeeee Kohdi's face / expression in that pic, LOLOL. I also liked the way his ears framed Mishka's face, it is all just very cute to me

Fire smoke in the air...


Was hoping these would turn out better...Mishka framed by Pansies












Sly as a fox! as I took this pic, she tried to put Kohdi in the pool!

Battle pics are great.

Thank you Mike! Mishka has been feeling amazing lately, and has been her old playful self her stomach issues seem to be resolved <knock woôd> and besides her food, all I did was stop buying store bought treats and have been making this one simple recipe myself!

Glad she's feeling better. I rarely use treats other than their food. Sometimes cut up hot dog pieces - very small (cut a hot dog into four long slices and slice all of those)- and that's mostly for when the trainer is coming over.

So like for recall, I'll use hot dogs since they are very high value. But I'll also do training right before meal time so anything is high value.

beautiful pic, love the "Sly as a fox" pic she looks like she is  about to toss him in the pool .  cool action pics he is like a ballerina in the air, jumping to get away.

@dvflyer yeah, hot dogs would have made Mishka sick, same with ground beef, eggs, bacon, sausage...the list goes on. Now, none of these things make her sick. Its weird. Either changing her food back kicked in, or these treats I make them do the trick. Since I don't know which one worked, im keeping both up. thanks Mike!

@ Ronin...thank you, that pic was caught completely by happenstance, haha, just a second before, they were both standing there looking all cute
