HI! I found great information on here and decided to join. I don't have my "bundle of joy" yet. Shes only 2 weeks old and with her mom and siblings. I figured why not join now and begin to read more on here. Im not a first dog owner nor am I foreign to animals in general. I have had snakes, lizards, geckos, fish, turtles, and even cats. My last dog of 13 years past away from cancer in November and lab mix. I have also had "back in the day" a Alaskan Malamute, this was a big dog and big mistake I was 10 when I got him and he was a surprise bday present. I know you guys are like "OH GAWD" Yeah long story short he was given back to his breeder where he became a daddy over there to others. So here we are years later getting a husky puppy and I know this will be fun but eventful friend. I told my friends I got a workout buddy! So that's my story hopefully I can be taken with open arms into this forum. I'll post pictures when I get here and any tips I can get will be greatly appreciated. Also I'm from Northern Virginia so is there any fellow neighbors here?

Hello from Lake ridge va. Cant wait to see your little ball of fluffy. What color is she? I'm a recent joiner myself and have found a lot of info to help with jumping up and counter surfing.

Your like literally my neighbor . Im here in Dale City! I know the mother is the typical white and black with blue eyes. so she will be something like that. We should really have a dog park around here. I heard they where talking about it but I haven't heard anything in a while

Welcome! Can't wait for pictures!

Welcome from Alexandria, VA! You should join our Husky meet up group (sorry Meredith lol)

I was telling Erica I believe the closest dog park to you Woodbridge owners is Gristmill dog park, which we go to almost everyday. So, if you guy's are ever interested in getting the pups together hit me up!

Oh nice good to find there is one around! looking forward to getting my pup and setting some husky play time! thanks!

Jeez, I go off to make dinner and grade papers, and you beat me to the punch yet again

Welcome to the forum! As Kelly said we do have a meetup group that started up last month, so when your little one is old enough (~4 months) we'd love to have you out at the meet ups. My plan is to rotate around Maryland so the same people aren't driving the furthest every time. Can't wait to see pictures of the little one as well!

Welcome! Fairfax has a few dog parks.

Edit: Didn't notice you said Dale City! Yea Fairfax might be a hike.

Yeah ill be taking her to some meet ups when shes old enough to hold her own. right now she hasn't even opened her eyes. Im also driving up to MD a lot so its convenient

Actually woodbridge is getting a dog park on minnieville near Colby Dr near the power lines. I Spent the last couple weekends and possibly this one volunteering to build it. Fence actually went in on Monday. Should know by tomorrow if I'm volunteering this weekend if I'm not Kelly what time do you normally head over to the dog park?

When is that park due to be set-up? Thats the first I hear about that! Awesome!

It will be open by spring but the head guy is trying to see if he can get it opened earlier. The fence is up. The poop station and the bushes for the sound barrier are next from my understanding.

Saturday & Sunday can be any time honestly ... This weekend I'll probably head over there around 3:30-4pm
