Fur missle target locked

First time since I adopted her that she perked up seeing deer, also probably the first ones she noticed on our walks. There were four more behind the small trees.

Odd dilated eye

It’s only happened once and went back to normal after a nap, but her left eye was much more dilated than the right. Is this a husky thing? I had been drilling holes in a wall while she wandered around, so hoping it was just a dusty eye and not something more sinister.

Neighbors Think My Dogs are Aggressive

My dogs are the sweetest dogs but when they play it appears rough, but they don’t bite or anything, but it looks like they do. Here’s an example, does anyone else’s huskies do this?

I just want to thank everyone for their love, guidance and kindness from my post yesterday of the passing of my oldest, Nanook.

Today, I had my nails done for him, he loved when they were done so he got the best ear scratches.

White snowflakes for his white fur (and favorite thing) and his exact paw print from his final moments.

Thank you all again. My heart feels a little lighter because of you all.

Husky Hates Horror

Ok I have what I consider a strange problem. Our Husky, Kaya, hates horror movies and games. She complains anytime there is something scary on the TV, will yell the whole time. She also tries to knock controllers out of out hands or block us from the TV so we can't see. It is pretty exhausting and such a weird quirk.

Anyone else deal with this or have any advice?

Dog park "nipping" etiquette, husky instincts around this

Tl;DR – what is the etiquette around dogs playfully nipping each other? And can/should a husky's instinct to do so be corrected even when the other dog initiates?

I have a siberian husky rescue, she is 2 years old. When we first started going to dog parks, her play was entirely about running around. A month in, a dog started nipping at her playfully. She nipped back, and all was fine until the dog didn't enjoy her nips anymore and she continued to do so after it yelped and ran away.

Now I've learned that the best correction is another dog's correction, but when they don't I have to do so. My understanding is playful nipping is natural, and some dogs initiate this with her and they can go at it for an hour with no issue. When the other dog seems uncomfortable, I take her out of the situation even if their owner doesn't say anything.

A concern is that she will follow and/or escalate the energy until stopped, to concerning levels of play fighting. And moreso than that, I observe that when the nipping starts, it's more likely to involve jumping on the other dog, not in a way they seem to mind as they will do so back with her, but their owners seem to mind.

Today a dog nipped her, she did some playful nipping back, they chased each other around, and a minor bit of jumping got involved. Then the dog who nipped her nipped another dog which yelped. Then both those owners left simultaneously, never having indicated who in particular did something wrong, or whether she was the cause. But prior to my arrival they'd been playing together so I inferred that my husky had introduced an issue.

The question that came to mind is whether there's some general etiquette around this nipping behavior I should be observing? And my second question is if this nipping is an instinct I can/should override and put a stop to? When she was just running around it seemed like there was less opportunity for misunderstanding with other dogs and owners.

Dog insurance

Anyone got good leads on where to search for dog insurance? I think my credit card company has some discounts if I join through them.

Is it unrealistic to expect my husky to not pull so hard?

I'm a first-time husky owner, actually a first-time dog owner really, and I'm just wondering if there is a way to train my girl to not pull so hard on the leash when we're going on walks. It's really hard on my wrists. She is also very reactive to other dogs in their own yards, she wants to play with every single dog she sees. I know that that is very deeply ingrained in husky behavior but if there's anything that I can do to kind of teach her that not every dog wants to play with her at every moment that would be awesome too.
