Katers91 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I did research. no amount of research could have prepared me for these two!! and the hair dont even get me started lol I was just about to say for all the research I did into the breed, and even having had a husky as my childhood pet, Ryder was still a shock to the system! It is all about adapting once you have your pup, my lifestyle's changed completely and we're not even having all our spare time soaked up with walkies yet. But still, common sense should tell a person who really isn't willing to change their lives that a husky isn't the breed for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue bayou Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 You cant educate people enough i always tell people when im out asking about the breed and once ive spoke to them they dont want 1. so im doing something right!lol. to many idiots wanting to buy them just for looks makes me mad. all you can do is let people know when they ask about the breed. yes it does make you want to take a trip to manchester:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povodny Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I had first hand experience from caring for a friends two but still did a massive amount of research before taking the plunge and getting a husky.. And as mentioned, owning just one means changing your way of life. When people ask you about them and you explain how they're much more than just a dog. You can see them think 'yeah yeah' but it's those people who get them and end up shoving them in a shelter when reality kicks in. Maybe we could contact itv and have the forum mentioned as a place to come to for support if people are struggling with their husky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjp75 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I see the news clip made me sad and mad I just want to go get them all :'( Sadly not got the room and don't want a divorce. If I won big on the LOTTO I'd be straight to a rescue for the huskies and start my own. With mega land for them to run about on xxx εїÃ· H εїÃ· Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celestial Echo Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I think the only time I had ever been around a husky was when I was in 6th grade and we were tracking the Iditarod. After it was over, a woman brought in a few dogs from her team so we could meet some real dogs from the Iditarod. I don't know if that is where my love for them began, but I have always wanted a husky or mally. I agree that no amount of reading will prepare you for dogowner- ship, especially not with sibes. I haven't really in the position to talk anyone out of a husky. Most of the people I work with have either owned them, or they know they would never want to! I don't like to be bothered when I walk her, so generally I take her to trails or to a field where there aren't other people around. And as others have said, THE HAIR! We have lint rollers in the car, every room of the house, ect. It doesn't matter though, I am still always covered in her fur. People probably think I am a slob, lol.

Casper1 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 In all honesty, when my dad first got Blade, the only research we done was looked on a website, found a local breeder, called him, visited a litter, picked him and brought him home when was ready. The breeder was great with info, but we just thought how much hard work could a 'dog' be!! In hindsight, having done the research, we probably wouldn't have got one. However, we now have 3 in our little pack, after bringing Casper home from the dogs trust, and wouldn't be without any of them!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskies On The Go Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Easy to answer I think. Stupid people get the pups just because they are cute without having any idea what they're taking on. Oh yeah I agree with you also 100% over 100%, I know how they do what your talking about. And What they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
