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 doing a lot of research on this forum for several weeks now. I think a proper introduction is in order.

So...

What's up everyone?! My name is Adam. I'm 24 year old engineering student who dj's part time on the weekends. I've always wanted a Siberian Husky, but I've never been a position where it made sense. Up until a few months ago, I didn't know much about the breed--I knew they were stunning, have had stories written about them, and were initially bred to pull sleds. Since then, I have been reading as much as possible, and decided that this was the breed for me. I chose a breeder two months ago--the litter my pup is in was born on Nov. 3--so I'm not for sure exactly which one I'll be getting--other than one of the males. I'll be picking him up in early January. Until then, I'm going to continue to gather as much information as possible, so I can be ready. I already made an inquiry about raw diets in the nutrition thread--I'm sure I'll have more questions as the weeks pass. I am SO excited, and my dog (well my girlfriend's dog) Dexter will be stoked to have a playmate.

Here are a few pics from the litter:

Anyway, just wanted to say a little something. Looking forward to getting to know you all!

I'm so jealous you're getting a McCracken puppy. I've loved their dogs for years, but I don't like the idea of shipping a puppy. Kellie is great Very Happy

Congrats on your new addition! I love the grey/agouti male Very Happy

Yes, Kellie is awesome! She has provided me with great info and a number of books to consult. It's ironic; I just moved from Indiana to Florida over the summer. I grew up an hour and a half away from them. I'm picking him up over Christmas break when I go back to visit my family for the holidays. It really couldn't have worked out better.

I reserved a puppy from her 2 years ago and backed out of it. I guess we all have our personal preferences. Very cute puppy though, you must be excited and anxious for the pick up date.

After reading a lot about early puppyhood and development, I learned that a breeder can make or break a puppy in those first 8 weeks. I spoke in depth to Kellie about her methods, and I liked her ideology, so it's a good fit for me. You're right though, it's all about personal preference. And I am excited beyond words.

I'm actually trying to get a lock on all the areas I'll need to focus on in the first weeks--nutrition, training, socialization, etc. There are a great number of resources--as well as knowledgeable people on this site. Glad to be a part of it; it makes me feel a lot more comfortable with this new endeavor.
