I think my boy is sick

He peed in his crate last night which he never does. I've been taking him outside when ever he wants to go and I noticed he is peeing a lot. Much more than usual. I'm thinking maybe bladder infection or something similar. He just turned five in May. I'm calling the vet when they open. Has anyone experienced this before?

Show me your goofy boys

This is my son Blizzard. We were working on recall with a long line today. I kept him away from the grass until the very last minute 🤦🏼‍♀️

Lucas county dog shelter in Toledo Ohio has been loaded with huskies lately. These 6 are available now. Dogs aren’t “urgent” for specific time or space but it is a packed shelter environment so not great for a long stay. Lucascountydogs.com 410 S Erie Toledo OH 419-213-2800

I haven’t met these dogs. Last time I was hanging out with a husky there, he ended up here because he wasn’t working out anywhere else.

Possessiveness

Our Husky is a rescued female, 3.5 years old named Kaya. We have had her 2 years now and are struggling with her being super possessive. She is a pretty normal husky in terms of stubbornness but it is getting out of hand. She loves kids but she gets very possessive of them. My younger cousin comes over a lot and Kaya adores her but a while back we brought Kaya to a family gathering and she got crazy protective of my cousin and didn't want anybody messing with her, including her parents and her own dog. She wouldn't listen to us and we ended up having to just keep her close the whole night. When I am upset she will literally wrestle my husband to get to me no matter what he tries. She doesn't really like us being affectionate either. When we first introduce her to other dogs she acts super hostile for the first 20 minutes or so. We have to pin her until she calms down. But after that she is friendly toward them for the most part, just possessive of us and her space. Right now we have a friends dog staying over night and Kaya won't let her on any soft surface. She runs from one to the other before the dog can get to it and she has been herding the dog all over. I know all the advice on jealousy and possessive behavior but I wasn't sure if there are any husky specific ideas since they are so stubborn?

Husky hiding in corner after being outside in hot weather

So, only let him out to go to the bathroom during the Boise heat wave, maybe 5-8 minutes. After returning he stuffs himself in the corner and pants heavier than usual. He is kept inside a work trailer with AC set around 70-72. Wondering if he’s just stressed or something more if anyone has any ideas. Vet appointment will be made anyways

Fish oil recommendations

I'm going to try to add some fish oil to help with some dry skin. Any one have any good brand recommendations?

Shedding

Ok I’m at a loss. My dog isn’t full husky but likely at least half. We love him but we literally cannot touch him without being covered in dog hair. I brush him and vacuum him nearly every day, he goes for a special deshedding bath and brush once a month, and my house, furniture and clothes are still COVERED. My kids can’t pet the dog before they go to school because they get so much hair on them. I can’t think this is normal. Does he need to go to the vet? Photo of the hairy monster for attention!

Mental stimulation ideas

Hi! I have a soon to be 5-year-old husky (August 30th!) Shes my entire world. She's such an angel in the autumn, spring, and winter when I can walk up to 12k a day with her along with off-leash running (she has good recall), sniffy walks, swimming, playing with her toys outside, and generally being outside all day. But in the summer, it gets way too hot and we get swarmed by biting flies and mosquitoes so she gets super bored and can't be outside. I have a part time job and am willing to do anything to help her. She has some hyperactivity and behavioural problems in summer only bc of this. I'm looking for ideas for mental stimulation. I have some brain toys for her and we play fetch and hide and seek inside, and she practices her tricks, but she's getting bored. Any ideas help, thank you in advance! :) (pic of my angel baby for cuteness, she's 75 pounds and as healthy as a horse!) Sorry for the long post!

Husky-Proofing Our House

My wife and I will be welcoming a husky into our home in August 2024. Our home is all on the same floor (i.e. no stairs in the interior). There are certain pet-proofing projects we need to do (securing furniture to the wall). I was wondering if there is anything that I would think of that is not intuitive. For example, it makes sense to secure a two part hutch to itself and to the wall.

HOWEVER, if any husky owners here have experience with husky-proofing a house for everyone's safety, it would be appreciated. I would hate to miss something.

EDIT: The dog in question is approximately 2-3 years old. Dog was rescued off street by friends in October 2023. Dog has living with our friends, their two dogs, their cat, and their toddler without issue. Dog is currently at a board and train.

My favorite pic of the pack. Is it worthy of an album cover?
