I'm excited to join the forum with my 5 yr old Huksy mix, Phantom, I adopted a just over 2 years ago. Here are the numerous proud-mom pics!

Here's the Petfinder picture of Phantom from 2009 when we adopted her. She's 2.5 years old.


And this is her the night we adopted her (after a bath and removing about 500 ticks!)


Such a ham!


Here we are at the river, you get an idea of how she is rather tiny for 3 years old. One downside (or is it an upside) of a dog we can never let off the leash: if she is going to play in the river, I have to play in the river...

got to love those ears..

She is beautiful ..

I am glad you adopted her..

Does she have a tan tint to her face or is that dirt? LOL!

Haha, she does have little bits of tan here and there. Some on her face, legs, and tail.

My Aspen has some tan in her as well. In fact, that side view of Phantom's face could be Aspen!

she is beautiful... you can always get a longer lead so she can play in the water and you don't have to.

Because one post of pictures wasn't enough...

The first winter we had with Phantom was the Snowpocalypse here on the east coast. So much snow she could barely contain herself!


Same day, tired out and looking pretty.


We went hiking and got caught in a freak rain/hailstorm. This is her on the drive home looking less than pleased...


Phantom doesn't quite get "sharing" a 2-person backpacking tent.

I remember Snowpocalypse. I was in Ohio at the time. I would have killed to have my dog during that. Digging the snowy shots.
