| Orion | Storm |
| Orion is 18 months old here, and is obviously a "red" Siberian Husky. He represents the fourth generation of our line, and shows his father's (Hooper) good looks combined with his mother's (Kodi) loving disposition. He hasn't really met Storm yet, but he knows we've been touching and holding another dog! | Storm is 6 weeks old here, and is a "gray" Siberian Husky with blue eyes. It's far too early to tell what she will become, but her father is a champion and her mother is an absolute love. We've visited her twice, and she knows we hang with at least one other Sibe. She'll get to meet Orion in about two weeks. |
Let’s get one thing straight from the start . . . we are owned by Siberian Huskies!
If you live with a Siberian, or are close friends with someone who does . . . well, then you may already know a fair amount about the breed. If not, there are a number of web sites you can visit to learn more. The Siberian Husky Club of America (SHCA) is a great place to start. The SHCA home page contains an index of available topics including an introduction to the breed and a brief history of the breed in America. But perhaps the most important information for the curious potential owner is called "So . . . You Want a Siberian Husky?" . The descriptions are accurate, and you will see them quoted and paraphrased on many web sites featuring Siberian Huskies. Ann Hernandez has also assembled a wonderful site where, among other things, you can browse a pictorial catalog of the surprisingly broad array of colors and markings characteristic of the breed. Finally, you can meet with and talk to a large group of Siberian Husky owners . . . wait . . . scratch that . . . you can talk to a large group of humans owned by Siberian Huskies . . . by joining the Sibernet List.
So what will you find here?
Hopefully, we'll make your Cyber-Husky experience just a little bit richer. We'll try to broaden your understanding of these wonderful animals by sharing what we've felt during 15 years of being part of a "pack". We'll certainly brag a bit about our owners, but let's get something straight from the start. We neither show nor race Siberian Huskies. We have carefully bred and raised just three litters within the four walls of our home to maintain and ensure the characteristics we have come to love - great looking Siberian Huskies with even better dispositions. For ourselves and for a few other people who will cherish these animals as much as we do. Which brings us to . . .
Siberian Husky Rescue
Far too many Siberian Huskies are in need of rescue. Why? For different reasons than most other dogs. You've probably never considered "rescuing" an abandoned dog before, perhaps for the same reasons you might avoid buying a used car, i.e., you don't want someone else's problem. Right? Well, as far as Siberian Huskies are concerned, you would be wrong. Siberians often find themselves abandoned for being EXACTLY what they are supposed to be. The problem is their human(s) either didn't read, or didn't believe, or didn't carefully think about the issues raised in "So . . . You Want a Siberian Husky?". Please do that, and talk to a responsible human member of a Siberian Husky pack before considering a decade of intimacy with a Siberian Husky. And please, consider rescuing one of our relatives, OK?
