Paylee

Matt & I have been pondering getting a puppy for a few years now. We always said we would wait until we moved to the country, but this last month, we both had a feeling that now is a good time.

Matt grew up with a husky and was set on only that breed. I know they are big dogs and shed a lot, but Paylee will have a home outside and only be in when we are home. We decided on a Siberian Husky female as they are smaller.

We had to drive two hours to see her. She lives with an awesome family and has four siblings. We knew instantly that we wanted her instead of the other female pups. She was so little (4 weeks) and nuzzled in my neck and made cute pig snorting sounds.

We get her on Wednesday when she is six weeks. Matt has assured me we will start training her immediately and look at obedience school. We had a dog when we were first married and she was crazy! We got her as an adult dog and she had some serious behavioral issues :/

We got rid of our trampoline and turned that 10' x 10' area into her space. Matt bought a 5x6x10 log for posts and swinging barn doors as the gate. We need to build the dog house and we are done.

I know having a pup is like a newborn, so we have our work cut out for us. The good thing though is our kids are older ;)

Will look similar to this.
But using this type of gate.

Her mom. Pretty small for a husky!

I love her markings.
