Here's my female husky, Raven. We're from the tropical paradise that is the Philippines! (Yes, there are tons of huskies here, surprise! lol)
She's currently 5 and a half months old and full of springy, bouncy energy! Smile

I'll update this thread as often as I can. Smile

@Mobezilla: Aww thank you! :3 , your pup is cute, too! I like her eyes Smile

@yulia86: Raven sleeps like that (on her back), too! Haha thank you! Smile

Here she is today, photos were taken just a few minutes ago, after our nightly walk: Razz

Yes, I love taking pictures of my dogs lol. Not very handy with the camera though

The pictures are great, but I'm guessing you scaled them down to be that small? Try only scaling them to 500 px wide and whatever height matches that, the pictures won't be too big but they'll still be pretty good Very Happy

Thanks for the tip! Smile

Yeah I did scale them down, and some were taken with my MacBook's webcam lol

Such a sweet looking puppy! To be honest, before I opened the thread, I was expecting her to be black & white, considering her name is Raven! Anyway, I love the name and I bet she is going to mature into a gorgeous husky lady!

Where in the PI are you located? My wife will be going home to the Philippines (Manila/Bulacan) next week for a family wedding & long over due vacation, then I'll meet up with her later in Hong Kong.

@GalacticPup
Yes, she is sweet! I always get a good husky bath (lots o' licking) from her when I get home, haha! Yeah, about the name, the breeder named her Raven because her coat was uber dark when she was born. It turned a lighter shade of gray after a few days, but the name stuck Smile

@Here4ThePics
I'm from Manila! I suggest you go visit the 'natural' attractions here, the metro's a pretty drab place, to be honest, unless you know where to go Wink

But I love it still. Have an awesome week! Smile

An update, Raven acquired this nasty looking cut from I-don't-know-where Sad

I was hoping it would dry up, as I cleaned it with a gentle antiseptic for a couple of days, but I guess she scratched it earlier today and it started bleeding again Sad

Bringing her to the vet first thing tomorrow, maybe get a dog cone on her or something until the bleeding stops.

She is really pretty! I hope she's alright and it's not too bad!

Thanks @DarkWolfProwler! The vet concluded that it might be a zinc deficiency thing, so it might go away with time and some supplements Smile

The wound's dried up quite nicely but it left a bald spot Sad

Anyway, we just got home today from a trip to Tagaytay (a high-altitude area here in the Philippines with cold weather). She absolutely enjoyed the coolness of the breeze, it's as if the ancient husky blood awoke in her lol. She absolutely hated the car ride though

Her wound's dried up completely and hair's starting to grow back, after supplementing her diet with Omega fatty acids and zinc Smile

I also just shifted to Orijen, a premium brand dog food, from her former dog food, and she absolutely loves it. People have been commenting a few months back how thin she looked, and, well, she's started to gain some weight.
