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.

Can't sleep and before I got a bit on the MIA side to deal with personal issues, I wanted to post this...


Barron's Dog Bibles: Siberian Huskies (Great resource for new and potential owners!) Book10

Buy It On Amazon!


Okay, so.. I know we have a lot of members that are just now entering husky parenting or are potential husky owners. I went to B&N this weekend with my husband and saw a new husky book. Of course, I grabbed it off the shelves and decided I would browse through it and see how useless and inaccurate it was…

.. Well, I was wrong. This book is pretty awesome. I would recommend it over Huskies for Dummies anyday, though I think HfD has some fun little pieces of information. Obviously, my suggestion is to go to B&N and grab a hot chocolate and read both, but I just wanted to bring attention to this book for our new and potential husky owners. It has great information that will benefit you big time. It's really neat because it addresses all those questions you get.. rescue vs. puppy, finding a breeder, huskies and kids, food, sports to do with them, training. I wish they had this when we got Koda!
