LJ Idol 10: Fear Is The Heart Of Love

Pull in driveway, bang open side door. Fur explosion, licks, wagging, paws on my chest, swiping my thighs. Get changed, grab a bite, check email. Sitting pretty front and center. Look at me, look at the door, me, door. Eyes are saucers. Wag, wag...wag?

Andiamo!Park means little kids rushing up to the playground fence, it's the wolfie dogs

Oh geez, I had no idea that huskies were such a hot commodity. I had a Siberian mix that I miss so much. I'd be devastated if that had happened to her.

They are because of their stamina. Snowdogs have this kind of biological "on/off" metabolic button which switches on when they're exercising. It's what keeps them pulling a sled, say, for many many miles in subzero weather. If they're not exercising it switches "off" so they can conserve their energy.

Oakley escaped the yard during our snowcopalypse a couple of years ago. We were so panicked that neither of us could coherently speak. We went in separate directions (SO in my old Jeep, me on foot) calling him and looking for him, contacting Animal Control in both our town and the neighboring town...I was petrified he'd come across a coyote and wanted to play with it. A neighbor found him playing on top of a snowbank on the next block over, LOL. But still, my heart was in my mouth for the rest of that week.

Luckily, for me, I've got two pooches that are absolutely theft-proof. For a few years no one even believed that we had a mal-cross because he would simply never appear.

I don't think you should be afraid. Take the boyz out and enjoy the fresh air!

*hugs*

There are actually people who go out and steal other people's dogs to fight them? Forget shutting down zoos and circuses, these are the idiots we need to go after.

My thoughts exactly.

Aw, people suck. I know that there is a market for dog fighting, but I didn't realize that huskies were a breed that the scum who fight dogs would want. Keep your eyes on your babies.

Now I want to go and cuddle with some huskies...

o_O I would never have guessed that was even a danger, but I'm so glad JJ told you about that.

You sensed something about that woman was 'off,' but who would have thought THAT far off?

Better to know, though how sad for all of you to have your play areas restricted, at least at certain times of day.
