Hi from Iowa

Hi everyone!

after 2 computer crashes within months of each other and now hoping for the best, i decided to look for some husky based forums. i was on several before the crashes, but i didn't keep the links or anything, stupid me. but anyways i do recognize some members here from the other forums, so yay! and i can't wait to meet some new friends.

now to about me and my pups.

i live in iowa. right along the mississippi river, where illinois, iowa and missouri all meet. pretty much nothing here. i have been married for 2 years as of june 6th. we got married 06-07-08. i work with the mentally and physically handicap and i am in the process of getting into a nursing program. so work and school take up a majority of my time, which i know in the end will be worth it. my husband works on the local railroad and i can't wait for the day when we can move :)

living with me and my husband are our 3 'kids'. we have izzy the akita, koozie the husky and keno the husky. due to the afor mentioned computer crashes, i don't have any really recent pictures of them, i know bad mom, but with work and school, i didn't get around to editting them before the 2nd crash and i have been gun shy about taking any more.

here is a picture from may.

izzy is the pinto akita

koozie is the red and white pinto/splash coat

keno is the agouti

izzy is going on 4 yrs old in january

kooz will be 3 in december

keno will be 2 in february.

we have had the boys since they were 6 weeks old. it was better for us ( not something i would reccommend for everyone) due to izzy being very true to her breed and more easily accepting of young pups. i will post some more pictures in the picture section of keno growing up. his coat change is amazing!

now that all said, my entire family are dog lovers. and since i am close with my family, i consider the next dogs i am going to mention as mine too, as i help bath, groom, train and love them and see them quite often.

along with the 3 that live with me i have:

2 bichons, brother and sister. jack and tillie. they will be 5.

2 shibas. jersey ( red) will be 4 and zoe ( cream) will be 3

akita. tipsy fawn with black mask. she will be 3.

2 bichons

my brother just ruined it though and got an aussie pup he named cooper

i have some dog training schooling and i am really interested in genetics and canine behavior. so thats me in a nutshell.

Welcome the Pack.

Wow, They must keep you running around in circles, all the different breeds and personalities. biggrin.gif

If you put your pics on here in your Gallery or a photosharing site like Photobucket, you wouldn't have lost all your precious piccies rolleyes.gif

Thanks for the warm welcome!

i do have a photobucket account, but the new pictures i had yet to edit so i never up loaded them, thinking i would have the time later. well that didn't happen. but i do have all the important ones in a photobucket account and i'm definately going to be more proactive in putting pictures there.

as for akitas. i mean they are more of a guard dog than a husky. but something a lot of people dont know is they are more of hunting breed than a guarding one. i have been involved with akitas for the past years, they are definately not a breed for everyone nor is everyone for an akita.
