Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| I've been real curious if Kavik (14 weeks old) is possibly a wooly coat husky. How can I tell if he is? He’s so fluffy compared to other huskies I've seen his age. Parents were both plush and standard coat. Any insight would be awesome! Thanks   |

| Oh, I like!!! I you ever decide you can't handle him, I'll help! (( completely non-serious! )) From what I see definitely a plush but I'm not so sure that I'd go out on a limb and say a wooley. @TwisterII would have a better idea there than I. _________________ “Properly trained, a man can be dog’s best friend.” Corey Ford |

| Haha thanks for the offer!  He’s definitely quite the handful, but already pretty bonded to our family “pack”! Although dog sitting is always on the table  Appreciate the insight! His long guard hairs and ear tufts are quite a bit different then huskies we’ve raised in the past. All said, he’s one of the more adorable puppies I’ve ever been around |

| I will go out in a limb - with that ear tufting, he's got at least partial wooly gene expression. Look at his legs and tail - if there are long "feathers" there, definitely a wooly. |

| I'm betting better than even odds you have a wooly. A very beautiful wooly btw. Here's mine at his worst:  And best  |

| Laughing! I looked and did "A dog butt!?!?! He's camera shy?" before I read your note. When I refer to feathers on my dogs, it's primarily the hair that grows on the back side of their legs (front and back though mostly on the back) Feathering, I'm told, can also refer to the extra fluffiness of some Sibes tails ... but they're all fluffy if you ask me! On your picture of the dogs hind end, the white area is where you'll find most of the feathering. _________________ “Properly trained, a man can be dog’s best friend.” Corey Ford |

| "5) FEATHERED COAT. Dogs with this type of coat have fringes on their ears, legs and tummy. The hair on the rest of their body is usually short and more or less wiry, like the Setter or Cocker Spaniel. You need to brush the fringes out every day using a pin brush and bristle brush."
