Picture of Storm taken while he was still in foster care in Kansas (sometime between August 2010 and April 2011)


Today, working on his tan.


I know it's not a good comparison, but you can still see some difference. I look at some of the other pictures, and his face even looks slimmer.

Wow Storm! He looks so good Claudia

He doesn't have a 'double chin' anymore!

Here's a better comparison:

Storm, 115+ lbs, in foster care in KS sometime between August 2010 and April 2011:

I swapped him out - it's really a different husky
Just kidding!...we love our Storm!
And I look at these pictures and I am truly amazed how he has transformed...he's such a sweet boy!

WHOA! Looks like a totally different dog! Storm actually looks normal now!

Is that loose skin hanging over his rear leg when he's sitting (in the "today" picture)? Or is it just a weird angle?

Whoa! Awesome pics! Storm looks fantastic!!

It's a weird angle plus his fur makes it look funny too.

WOW YOU CAN REALLY TELL THE DIFFERENCE IN THESE PICS!!! HE LOOKS AWESOME!

Pssh, Val, that's just storms pants !

Storm is looking SO good! God that comparison is insane!

Do NOT lose a lb by Saturday Storm!

That made me laugh out loud, Heather!

Claudia,
How tall is Storm?

Storm is about 25-26" tall.

Get that pound by sat storm!

I'm going to pick him up and then drop him on you Jenn.

i can handle 90lbs not sure you can!

Braiden is 26" and he weighs 62 pounds He is 18 months old. Should I try to put more weight on him? I know Huskies fill out until around 2 -1/2. What is your target weight for Storm? Thanks.

Braiden still has time to fill out, so I personally wouldn't look to put more weight on him just yet since he isn't 2 years old yet.

We're looking at about 80-85 lbs for Storm as his ultimate goal weight, but we'll have to see what a 5 lb weight loss will look like and then go another 5 more if needed, and maybe even 5 more after that depending on how his muscles tone up during the winter season since we haven't done much hiking in the summer! Also, keep in mind that Storm is 6 years old.

Thanks. Just wondering how much BraiBrai will weigh ultimately. He seems plenty heavy now LOL. At least he willingly jumps into the Tundra now.

Braiden could be a different build that Storm too. I don't even know if Storm will have more of a show line or working line build. Right now, Storm looks like he has long legs and if he loses another 5-10 lbs he may end up with a more working line build that show build. IMO, Storm also has a long body, so that may also contribute to him looking more like the working line once he's lost all his weight. I tell ya what, though...since he's dropped 20 lbs so far, he's so much more energetic and 'light' - he's even running with the pack at the meet-ups! So cool to see his transformation!

Braiden has long legs and still looks lanky. He is in proportion with length and height though. He is over the height standard, and had his "doggie "operation last week. Skyla has more of a short stocky body with wider chest. You are doing such a good job with Storm's weight reduction. He is so lucky to have ended up in your family. Good job!!
