KarinGarage Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 This is Kira! She's a 9 year old husky that we rescued from the boulder humane society. Her previous owner commited suicide... very sad. She is a very sweet, calm and happy dog! She had had a rough life before, having to spend most of it chained up outside, getting very little affection. She had never had a bath before so we took her to a groomer shere they had to use 8 or 9 bottles of shampoo to get her clean!! Plus she got a lot lighter, she was a gray dog when we met her! She's in good health besides a few stiff joints and her only quirk is she's afraid of lightning. Totally understandable considering her dog house was struck by it when she was just 2. I can't wait to take her everywhere with me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 "Her previous owner commited suicide.."was that a detail that the humane society gave out to you? If so, that's not very humane of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonyak Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 congrats!!!she's gorgeous. I got a dog form a no kill shelter. They take in dogs that would have been put down. She was aused, and found as a stray in cornwall.she is such a great dog, I don't know why anyone wouldn't have adopted her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartamophone Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Congratulations, Karin, that's awesome! Huskies are really fun dogs and make great companions for outdoor adventures. If her joints are up to it, you should try skijoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
