Lots of bonding time over the weekend, but bud is going to have to learn to share me with my guitars. The two times I picked one up and started playing I got stoked because he started singing along, but I realized he’s getting jealous I’m not spending time with him……after doing nothing but spending time with him. :lol:



Now that I’m learning his personality I love him more every second. He LOVES chasing lizards and squirrels but he comes in like a wrecking ball so he never catches anything, it’s hilarious!

Once we settle down for the night to sleep he HAS to be touching me somehow. It starts as a paw on my arm and usually turns into him putting his head over my nose and mouth when I’m sleeping. No complaints!!!

And while I’m still in an anti-relationship frame of mind, this dog is a cheat code when it comes to women. I met more of my neighbors in the last 4 days than I have the last 4 years and all I’ve done is play with him in our courtyard.

I’m definitely going to drop a few pounds with him. As soon as we wake up we go on a mile/1.5 mile walk before it’s too hot outside. Since I can’t take him off the leash in the apartment complex, when he wants to run I just run with him or if I can tell he needs to get energy out, we’ll go outside and chase the shit out of each other.

He’s going to stay with a friend while I go on vacation this week, bad timing as I’d prefer he were with me a while longer before I took off for 10 days, but he’ll be in good hands and he’ll be with a couple teens who can get some energy out of him.

That is great, my first husky always had to be touching some part of me as well.

You think that is good, try it with a puppy lol. I couldn't go anywhere without a mob.

Do you have any fenced in ball parks around? Ours are completely fenced and no one seems to care as long as you clean up the poops.

Not really, none that aren’t school property. I do have a dog park close by, but the heat has been so intense lately he’d probably last 5 minutes before cooking up.

Fortunately, I have some huge empty suites here at work, 44,000 sq foot empty offices, so after work I’m bringing him back here to get some energy out. He can haul ass in air conditioning!!!

This dude is the best therapy on the planet!

I doubt it happens in Florida, but if you get any quality winter weather, the dog is going to love it and your neighbors are going to report you for "negligence." My girlfriend has a friend with a husky who loves the cold and had to get a letter from the vet because she was reported for "leaving the dog outside when it's this cold!" Damn do-good phonies!

This happens with livestock guardian breeds like Great Pyrenees too. They've been living outdoors with their flocks for thousands of years. But apparently "If you're cold, they're cold" even though one animal has a heavy double fur coat and the other is basically bald...

Most people have not seen the sheer, dumb happiness a husky has when it goes outside and it's like 30 degrees Fahrenheit with 6" of snow. Not surprising, but seriously, some dogs are built to be in the snow.

Just ordered Mario Kart 8 and I got the Link upgrade amiibos already. Might even get past the first class without losing my temper this time.
