The Husky Meet Up was a blast this past weekend. We had a good turn out and it seemed that all the Huskies had a fun time playing and romping around in our gym. A few even stayed for grooming after their play time. They came out looking fluffy and refreshed! We look forward to hold many more of these meet ups as they are always so much fun to have.

On August 29th we hosted a Husky Meetup. We had a great turnout and everyone had a great time. There were about 20 Huskies that came ranging in color and size; some were almost all white to being all grey. Some had two blue eyes, two brown eyes or even one of each. All the dogs were gorgeous and very playful. Thanks to everyone who came and we look forward to hosting your next Meetup on 9/29.

Everyone had so much fun today splashing in the pool. There was a game of tag going on that included flying leaps into the pool causeing some major splashes. By the time everyone was tired and worn out they we completely soaked, but cooled down by the nice cold water. Teenie, a Husky/Shepard Mix decided that she was going to just lay down in the middle of the pool to cool off from her game of chase. Everyone had a great time being wet and wild!
