Hello everyone I joined here a little over a week ago and finally decided to post! I'm Autumn and I'm mommy to a 5 month old Husky named Zuko!
I love him to death even though he drives me insane 90% of the time there isn't anything I wouldn't do for the little(or should I say big) guy! I got him way earlier than normal because the "breeder" was trying to get rid of them and I didn't wanna see him be taken to the pound and my mom knew I've ALWAYS wanted one so I got him...and learned how much work and how different huskies are.But I'm glad he's with me I wouldn't trade him for anything!! I actually had to bottle feed him for about a week when we got him he was 3 and a half weeks old.I let him sleep by my bed in a crate with a stuffed animal and he'd snuggle up to it.It broke my heart he didn't really have time to socialize with his littermates or learn things from his mom it also made it harder to teach him as I had to take on that responsibility! But he turned out to be my bestfriend and he's a wonderful dog hes almost lost all his baby teeth two fell out yesterday and his big canines are working their way through I almost cried when he lost his first one LOL okay,I don't want to make a book so I'll leave off here and I'll post a picture of him

He is SO ADORABLE!!! I'm so glad you were able to save him!

It sounds like the breeder wasn't too reputable though if they were trying to "get rid" of him at only 3 WEEKS!!! That is the most insane thing I have ever heard!

Be sure to watch his behavior as he grows! Those weeks with his litter mates are crucial, so you might find he develops some tendencies that you weren't expecting.

Congrats on your baby, though

Also, welcome to the forum!

Aww thank you! and no,I dont think he was a legit breeder,sadly :/ it was quite sad! he was the last of the litter I just HAD to take him and his one little blue eye! haha

But yes thank you for the advice we were worried at first because he didnt want to be touched or held around 8 weeks but we worked with him and now he expects to lay in your lap and give you kisses I think he learned most of his social skills from our other dog when he was really little she'd always let him know what was too much!
