Well we were fortunate enough to meet Amber (aka sw33t_angel) and her lovely female husky, Sora for a husky play date yesterday. Dakota and Sora hit it off quite well despite a few little tiffs.

My husband was nice enough to take pics for us to share how Sora and Dakota's meet up went. Surprisingly the hour and a half of running and wrestling with Sora did NOT tire my boy out quite like I'd hoped but they had fun. And I'm glad we got to meet Amber and Sora!

And without further ado....PICS!

Definitely was NOT love at first site.








Poor Sora was always trailing behind!


















My second favorite pic of the bunch.








Pretty Sora




My third favorite pic of the group.












I have no idea why but this is my absolute favorite pic of the bunch!














Bye bye Sora



Sorry for the sheer number of pics, it was so hard to choose which pics to post and which to leave out. This is only a third of all the pics I have!

Amber, feel free to add any of your pics here if you got some good ones too!

Wow! That looks like they had a ton of fun!!

Hopefully we'll see more in the future?

I certainly hope so!

4th up from the bottom is so funny! I think what Dakota needs is his own live-in Sibe playmate

Been trying for years to convince the other half of this but alas, he says no.

aww gorgeous pictures

Holy crap some of those are "52 week" worthy!!! Kudos to the photographer. I love the ones of Dakota in mid stride with the front and rear legs together.

Val's husband is by far one of the best amateur photographers I've seen! If they lived closer, I'd totally hire him for my wedding!! (if he wanted the job of course not saying that he would)

I can't get over that first picture! its so raw i love it! and the one with Dakota laying on the ground it looks like Sora is gonna kiss him! what fun for you 2 to get together! and what a great yard to have it in
you could have added all the pics and i would still want to see more!

Will pass on the compliments to the photographer. If I had my husband's photography skills I would totally have done the 52 weeks thread but sadly, I don't possess those skills...not even close.

LOL Tori, you'd get a major discount if he were able to do it for you, that's for sure!

Jenn, believe me I wanted to add more and it was tough deciding what to cut and what to share. Glad you guys enjoyed them!

They had such a blast!!!! Dakota is one energetic doggie to not be tired after all that husky fun! Adorable pics!!!! I would love to see more also!!!

My favorite is the one of Dakota laying on his back like saying " Ok Sora, I give up, you got me" LOL

Awww!! I love them all! Go ahead and post all 100+

I need to find my camera cord- and then I will update my few photos... haha def not as good quality as Val's man, but its the best my little Canon can do!

They had a blast! Sora was truly a "husky in love" hahaha

It was so cool to see two huskies together! Thanks Val!!!

Thanks for coming over with Sora couldn't have done it without you guys. Can't wait to see what pics you got. I have a little point and shoot Canon too and it just doesn't compare, but the husbands DSLR is in another class altogether so there just is no comparison.

And by popular demand, here are a "few" more.



















Crazy faces!!!

Thanks VAL!!!!!! that first one had me laughing!

He does look rather brutal in the first pic, doesn't he?! Like he's about to smite Sora.

Awesome pics! Looks like they had a blast!
I'm glad you guys could have your own private little 'mmet-up'!

Love the crazy faces picture! Reminds me of those photos of people parachuting and their cheeks flapping in the wind! They're running so fast, their cheeks are puffed up and flapping in the wind!

She was obsessed with Dakota's ears for some reason!

Thank you!!

I actually got her collar and matching leash off of Amazon, because I had free shipping- so here is the store on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?ie=UTF8&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&me=ARAWDN3WGR7LW

They do also have a website with more selection here! http://www.sassydogwear.com/
