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 everyone, I'm Tom. I just registered after lurking for a bit. I registered as our family just got Jeter a 13 week old Husky/German Shepherd mix! Jeter has been doing great and is so Husky it's not funny. In the short time I've been lurking I've learned SO MUCH that has helped me understand him and keep him out of trouble with the boss (the female unit of our home).
I have some pics of Jeter and will be posting others soon. The ones I have were taken with my iPhone but I plan to use my SLR to get some great ones. Until then, I just wanted to say hi, and introduce ourselves.
Oh yea, I'm currently in Blacksburg but moving to Christiansburg soon. Hopefully there are other Hokies here, and others in SW Va! |

| Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. It's nice to hear about those of you with/have had mixes. It's amazing that today is one week since we got Jeter.
I've had German Shepherds before but never a Husky. It's so cool to see how much Jeter is like the descriptions I read here. With the move, school starting for our two legged boys and everything else going on getting into a routine has been a challenge. Thankfully Jeter seems to be a great sport and goes with the flow. The only issue so far is when we have to leave him alone for an hour or so. He really doesn't like it when I have to leave. He'll cry for me and go to the door. If "mom" is home he'll eventually hang out at her feet. If we both have to leave he was good the first few times but has really cried in his crate until we return :-(
Otherwise it's been a great learning experience and it's so cool to have a dog that loves us all so much! |

| Hello from a fellow Hokie!!! Gosh I miss Blacksburg. I'm from northern Virginia (well kind of, northern VA but not "NoVa" as I'm from the Shenandoah National Park area and it's in the middle of fucking nowhere, despite being 1 hour from DC) but now I live in Morgantown, WV. Can't wait to see pictures of your pup! |
