Got Max and Mika in March 2018.  They were born sometime around the first or second week of January.  I'll drop some misc pics here as they grow. Here's some of their first few months with us.

New workout buddies.   Max on left, Mika on right.

Pinned you again...




After hike nap time

They are so cute. They grow like weeds that first year. First six months especially.

they are adorable. they grow so fast.

Testing gif I made of Mika

You passed!! Silly pup!!!

They are such awesome looking Huskies! Love the gif...makes me wanna get a trampoline for my two, LOL. ..or maybe not

They LOVE the trampoline. Mika more than Max. Never would have thought. When my kids asked if we could put them in there I said, "Ok, just don't bounce them" figuring they wouldn't like the unstable surface.

I throw a couple balls in there, zip it closed and they are good. Only worry about them putting a foot through the springs, but, with the net, it's more difficult then when I was a kid. Still don't leave them in there unsupervised, though.

the trampoline video is so cute.

Mika always seems to sleep on my office chair legs or some other weird position.  Messed around with Photoshop to make a quick "sleeping collage" of both of them.

Max just got back from the vet. Got him neutered today.

His first experience with the cone of shame...

Pic in the middle, NOT sleeping, LOLOL. Too cute.

Awwwwwww, Maxxxxxxxx. I didn't use the cone, and luckily I didn't have too, well, they didn't have too, haha. Kohdi was just very quiet for about a day (really just half a day) but Mishka had a rougher time with the anastesia, she whimpered a bit here and there, and definitely if she moved too quick but they both got thru it relatively easily.

Took Max for a hike.  Poor Mika is still healing from her spay so she's missing out.

Del Dios Gorge bridge

Great picture, Mike. Love the design of that bridge too. Max has really grown! Love his face.

Even though Mika missed out on this hike, one on one time with each is good for everyone. I normally take mine seperately when it comes to hikes, not only for the bonding thing, but it allows me to concentrate better on their safety and stuff too. Hope Mika feels better soon though!

Beautiful shot. Mika won't be down for the count long.

In case anyone is interested/ wondering, here are two 8 month old huskies in a 48"W x 30L x 33H crate.

Bought this so that I could transport both dogs in one crate back and forth from hiking trails etc.

Fits the dogs... didn't fit in our Sienna (!).  The top of the rear opening in the van was too narrow given the height of the crate.  

Probably would have fit if I folded it and then opened up in the van, but we wanted one that can be taken out easier.  Ordered a 42" so we'll see how they fit in that one.

Getting our back and side yards done.  Max inspecting the drain work.... ha ha.

Love that picture, even if I did have to do a double take after reading your note - and then I laughed out loud!!!

cute picture! I have a "hole" in the rock of the pool that is the water fill, for when the water level drops, and I have turned it on to see the dogs reaction when they were younger...they'd go up to it and I'd sit by the handle and turn it off when they got close to get an even cuter reaction. Each one has then gone up to the hole and stuck their nose in. I'm evil, LOL, cuz then I'd turn it on. Then I'd laugh my ass off watching them jump back with wet faces

Can't wait to see your yard when it's done! Please take some pics. We have a gardening section on the forum where members show their yards and projects and stuff.

that is so cute. cant wait to see some pics of your yard.

Got the pups some packs.  Ruffwear Palisades.  Medium for Max, small for Mika.  Small actually fit Max but didn't have any room for growth.  Don't think he'll grow much more, but didn't want to chance it, so the small went to Mika.

Pics from the park.  They pull a LOT more with the harnesses.  Max top pic. Mika bottom pic.

Very cool

Longest hike yet.  8 miles (roundtrip) to Eagle Rock.  At 9 months old, I try to make sure the walks/ hikes aren't too hard.  Not sure if 8 miles was too much, but they seemed to handle it fine.  This hike is relatively flat the whole way. Lots of water, breaks, snacks etc.

Max thinking "Crap... we have to walk all the way back still?"

Looks like a great hike, I bet the pups slept really good afterwards the rocks really do look like an eagle, that's awesome! I had to look up where this is, I've heard of it but never really looked for it. The pics remind me a lot of the regional park near me, Mission Trails, and the only thing that kinda scares me about these types of trails, is coming across a Mountain Lion. I'd poop my pants. Here at Mission Trails, a woman had her dog off leash, it was a huge mistake, her dog came across a Mountain Lion who had babies, her dog was killed

Harnesses look great! How'd they work out for you?
