Frosty Meadow Husky Farm, Fletcher, Ohio

• Daisie is starting to behave like her cycle will be soon.  More moody, more talkative, and bouncing off the walls, etc.  Meanwhile, the boys are starting to show interest.

• Speaking of which, Denali has a nice little gash on the top of his foot.  A result of him and Demon fighting through the stall wall.  So it’s nurse Heather to the rescue.  It’s healing nicely now, and we moved Denali and Daisie to the corner.  

• Due to the extra cold nights, I am having to pay closer attention to...

• We didn't get as much snow as we hoped, but they all still had fun!  It's like turning kids loose in a toy store.  They are a lot more fun to observe on snowy days.
• Of course Zach and I had our fun in the snow with them as well.  We had the sled out, and while the dogs didn't pull it, they had fun with it.  Mostly chasing us around.
• Zach would get a running start and jump onto the sled, and whenever he did the dogs tried to prevent it.  Especially Miya.  One time was quite comical, when Miya li...

Meet the Siberian Huskies, Part 12…Nadia

Next in line for our Friday Focus is Nadia.  Nadia's story was special, and almost worthy of a "Saturday Stories" post.  Since she is now over a year old, her story is sometimes forgotten.  She is the daughter of Daisie and Denali, born 11-22-12.  The litter was very large, with 10 puppies in all.  When litters are that big, it's not uncommon to have small puppies, or even runts.  In most cases unfortunately, a runt won't survive.  We have had r...

Took a little break from blogging over the past week or so with the holiday.  I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! 

•  I will say this…I think the dogs love the holidays more than we do!  At least the food part. 

• It’s time to get ready for Christmas.  All the decorations are up, and we are putting the finishing touches on the Frosty Meadow Christmas cards.  Thanks to everyone who contributed holiday Husky photos!  They were great!

• Sounds like there is some winter weather headed ...

The coldest weekend of the year doesn’t do much for us humans in terms of getting things done outdoors, but it does provide for some additional “Huskyisms”!  As I watch from a wind-shielded area, it never ceases to amaze me how much they love the cold.

• Wind chill?  What’s that??  Kallen is facing the wind trying to catch it in his mouth.

• The plastic pool is still out, with a couple inches of water and now frozen on top.  Ice is no fun…Let’s break the ice so we can play in the...
