Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Hello! I've hovered over these forums a few times to get answers about my dog and decided that, hey, maybe it's time I signed up and got the full learning experience. In the picture to the left, you can see my dog, Fenrir, and his monster of a littermate, Apollo. You might also get to see one of the gigantic holes Fenrir has left at the dog park, with the assistance of a couple husky friends and a few humans, too! (it has become the go-to dog bed for tired dogs, so it's all good -- which is great, because no matter how often we fill the hole back in, it's always larger by time we return)

They're about 7-8 mos old right now. Fenrir weighs about 42 lbs while Apollo weighs about 50. I have no idea if these are ideal weights, but...yeah. We got them around November and were told they were 3 or 4 months at that point.

Anyway, Fenrir is a ridiculously intelligent dog. He learns new tricks in three to five attempts everytime, housetrained in three days, engineers creative means of escape (don't you love huskies?), figured out how to operate a door handle, all sorts of things. He's like a fluffy evil genius who loves to chew up socks.

Welcome to the forum. Fenrir is very handsome. Does Apollo live with you too? Is he a lot taller than Fenrir?

You'll find a weigh-in thread in the general forum so you can compare weights there. Fenrir sounds very clever! Careful with those socks though ...

Hi and welcome to the forums. Wouldn't it be nice if we can get them to dig on command. So they can dig holes we have use for...lol

Ghost: Thanks! Fenrir is actually taller, by a very small margin, but was always shorter in the past. Apollo is just a considerable deal wider and more muscular. They seem to be the same length. Their third brother that I know about is significantly wider than both of them (same height), but a LOT lighter (like, 25-30 lbs). It's a really weird spread. Apollo used to live with us (my former roommate owned him), but some drama ensued and, a few issues later, I ended up mediating the sale of Apollo to a lady I know from the dog park who is extremely experienced in raising dogs (which is good, because Apollo is super-destructive). So while they no longer share a turf, they still see each other 3-4 times a week.

jbealer, niraya, icebluelady, and jennet@embry: Thanks! I'll try not to be the MOST ignorant new husky owner in town. afro

"Being the parent of a special-needs pet means living your life constantly poised on the edge of a double-edged sword. On the one hand, you become a fierce defender of the ways in which your little one is perfectly ordinary — all the things he or she can do that are just like what everybody else does. And yet, you never lose sight of how absolutely extraordinary that very ordinariness is, how difficult, remarkable and rewarding that fight to be 'just like everybody else' has been."  -Gwen Cooper, "Homer's Odyssey"

Fenrir and his littermates have such different builds! I bet he loves it that he can meet up with Apollo often. I'll look forward to seeing more photos of Fenrir.

Thanks! I jumped in the cold water and uploaded an obnoxious scrapbook (because, y'know, I shouldn't be actually working or something. Laughing )

I wish I had a picture of the three together. Apollo is large, red, and muscular; Fenrir is sleek, black/white, and fast; Tioni (I think is his name?) is stout, fluffy, and blue. They look nothing alike.
