    So here he is, a 14 week old male Siberian Husky. We decided to name him Picard

    Being a college student, I don't have any "nice" furniture... or at least nothing that I am too worried about lol. That black futon in the picture feels like it is made out of rocks. I will not shed one tear if that couch gets destroyed lol.

    I will keep everyone posted. I plan on training him for Urban Mushing (see link)

    I got him from a local breeder. I checked the shelters but they didn't have any.

    I used to have five huskies and we bred them. They're crazy. Lol. Two that we ended up keeping from our first litter were so smart and well behaved though...Anyway, congrats! White is not a particularly common color. :gj: Is he pure bred?

    Wow, he has a perfect enough natural beauty. I'm thinking about one thing that Huskies are an active, energetic, and resilient breed whose ancestors came from the extremely cold and harsh environment of the Siberian Arctic. How will he survive in Florida??

    Well that is something that I did a lot of research about before I got him. I have to be careful with what I do with him, and there are a few steps that I take that you wouldn't with the average dog.

    First off he is a strictly indoor dog. Inside the temperatures never get out of the 70's and I always have fans on. The biggest issue he has is the high humidity.

    I only take him outside for short periods of time during the midday heat. But at night when it is cooler I'll take him out for much longer periods of time. We run 2-5 miles every other night (usually around midnight lol)

    Being that he was born in Florida and has been here his entire life his coat isn't as thick as a huskies coat would be in Alaska. But something that not as many people know is that their fur is a good insulator from the heat as well as it is from the cold.

    Very nice. The breeder I got mine from had one very similar looking to yours. I almost chose that one, but my little all white guy wouldn't stand for that. He was determined to go home with me lol.
