Well I got my first Husky, an all white female named Katie about 5 years ago. I thought she could use a playmate, so I got her a black and white male named Zeus about 4 years ago. They produced a litter of puppies a little over two years ago and that is how we have Thor and Pandora. In 2007, we lost both Katie and Zeus, due to very hateful neighbors.

When he was born we knew we where going to keep him. He was the only white puppy in a litter of 6. Thor is a total daddies boy. He takes after his father in the goofball department and truely has no idea how big he is. For the most part he is a quite boy and loves to lay on the couch with my husband. I think that he believes we bought our king size bed just for him.

I would upload a picture of him, but alas I am challenged in all things technical so I can't.

Hi Carmen! I can't believe you lost the parents due to neighbors Can I ask what happened?

When you want to post pictures, if you click on the button with the picture of a picture on it (haha) a little box will pop down. If you copy and paste the picture url into there, the picture will be embedded into the post like this:


I hope this helps!

I tried that with the pictures, but it was not doing anything. I must be having a blonde moment.



As to Katie and Zeus....

We where living out in the country next to the Alabama state line(no offense if anyone lives in the country here). My Katie got out and per the man that shot her "she was attacking his preggo mule".
First off..no such thing as a preggo mule and if she was show me where she hurt those animals. He shot her heart out while she stopped to get something to drink in a creek. She had a bright pink collar on so you know she belonged to someone. This guy lived three homes down the street from us...which was about 10-15 acres down the street. This happened three days before my birthday.

Zeus was cornered in a barn and shot by my immediate next door neighbor. His guineas teased my dogs all the time. This time they flew over my dogs fenced in area and Zeus found an area that the electric fence had shorted out and dug out under the fence. He chased the guineas and my neighbor shot him in his barn. I would have paid for the birds that my dog killed. This guy knew that his guineas where in my yard all the time. But he still shot my $1000.00 dog where as guineas do not cost hardly anything at all. this happened the day before Thanksgiving.

This a condensed version of what happened...yes the law was called both times and no nothing was done in either instance. My husband and I moved from there 2 weeks later.

Oh my god... Carmen I'm SO sorry. I was hoping it wasn't something like that but that is SO terrible My thoughts go out to you and Zeus and Katie who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge... I hope you see them again someday.

And I hope your neighbors get shot. I mean that. Karma can be a bitch and I hope they all know it. Darwin called it Natural Selection right? Well, I certainly don't want them adding to the degenerate global population. (Sorry- I just have a huge problem with someone that would knowingly kill someone's pet.)

Sorry but that is disgusting !!
How can someone be so heartless ??
Im so sorry for your loss and yes Tori is right your neighbours will get what is coming to them on the karma front !!
B***ST*DS

I to do believe that goes around comes around. The person who killed Katie was going to shoot Dora as well...I could not find her and I went to their door to ask about her...they said they would shoot her if they saw her. She was 6 mths at the time.

Wow. Country folk have some serious issues. I don't know what I would do if my neighbor shot my dog... it wouldn't be pretty.

Carmen, I am so sorry for your loss! I used to live out in the country but never had to experience what you just did. My family and I did lose our favorite German Shepard when someone ran over him. He was one of those HUGE German Shepards and, oh boy, he loved to chase cars on our dirt road... Then one day this guy in his small pick-up somehow ran over him. He was nice enough to stop and apologized profusely. My mom and us kids were alone that day (my dad was working) so she called our neighbor Bob to come over and shoot our beloved Gabe out of his misery.

Just this morning I was reading the village newspaper and they're shooting coyotes around here! Only one coyote has been accused of attacking a couple of dogs but I don't agree with this lethal control for every coyote. It's all about educating people on how to co-exist with coyotes.

It's because there is an over-population issue. They were restricted from killing for years and this has allowed them to start coming into the city and into populated area's looking for food. They haven't been native to the city limits since the early 1900's and now that they don't have a friendly fear of humans they are killing pets because there is no natural prey for them. It's not like they are shooting the coyotes in the suburbs, it's in the city where they haven't been a natural animal for almost 100 years. It's not a matter of co-existing.

hey what can i say i would 100% destroy anyone that harmed any of my dogs it would be the last thing they did

I will say after my neighbor killed Zeus, I had to hide my husbands guns. He had even told this neighbor that if someone killed another one of his dogs that he would kill them. I really believe that he would have. I had to call my hubby at work and tell him his boy was dead. I am so glad my step-son was there with me. He was 21 at the time he helped me alot.

OMG Carmen I have goosebumps reading your story - I am so sorry for the loss of Katie and Zeus at the hands of those evil humans. I just can't imagine your loss
I am not at all surprised at your hubbies reaction I would want to kill them myself!

Tori and Linzi are right tho Karma will get them even if it takes a while.
(Remember what happened to the guy who killed his husky pup!?)

Some baby Thor pictures.

omg- so cute!

dang cool pup

When he was born we knew we where going to keep him. Seems just like yesterday he was born. He is such a good boy.

Your avatar is awesome! The possibilities for captions are endless.

Thor was being a total goofball with this juice jug.

Haha!! Drunk dog! So cute... I love the whites.
