It's official! We have decided to add another member to our happy, busy, chaotic, loving family! As a family, we have decided upon a siberian husky puppy! (Pics to be posted soon!)
We are all very very excited, and anxiously awaiting delivery day. Well, that is, coming home day. He/She is currently 4 weeks old. Every Sunday is visiting day, and my how fast they grow in a week. We have spent two Sundays with him/her now. They are from a breeder in Snohomish, with 7 other brothers & sisters! They are all so handsome and beautiful, it was really hard to pick! Well.....we haven't actually picked ONE yet...we have two reserved. One is a male and one is a female. Which to pick. Is a girl dog better, or a male dog? My husband definitely prefers male dogs over female dogs. Something about the broad depth of their faces, shoulders, larger body, etc. We've really only ever had male dogs. They seem to always be more loving, attentive, loyal, goofy, more playful, and less aloof. Plus the male aggresion situation is definitely curbed by neutering early! But I have heard lately that a female husky tends to be better around a family with young children as the natural nurturing instincts kick in with kids.
Will you all please respond with comments in regards to your dog experiences....male or female....and why.
Thanks for your help & insight! We have to make our final decision by next visiting day!
