She was about 6 to 9 months old when we got her. Energetic, fun, snuggly Violet is so full of energy, and a lot of fun to be around. She can tell when I'm having a so so day, she'll bring her ball to me and we'll play fetch until I can't throw anymore.

Chomksy and Pushkin are incurably cute and stop traffic all the time with their distinctive markings. We continually hear comments about how they are so calm and well-behaved. They are extremely intelligent, clean, energetic and loving. If only they would come when we called . . . oh well, they're huskies after all!

Kona (originally "Chinook" from Sunset and Ghost) has added so much to our lives. We often say we could not imagine life without him. He is so full of love. Very pleasant demeanor. Cute and funny. Loves to play. Intelligent dog. Self-control. Dignity. Amazingly well behaved. People-person type dog. Enjoys just sitting and being a part of whatever is going on. 


 



 

Chance is doing great. He is all housebroken and asking to go outside and is LOVING all the snow we have gotten lately.  On his daily walks he has a lot of fun climbing all the snow banks the snow plow leaves. 

Chance has proved to be a quick learner so far while working with him at home, he knows sit and is pretty good at stay, and we are working on lay down also.  He starts puppy kindergarten on March 17!  He has made many new friends, human and dog.  Everyone loves him.  On the way home he got to play with my dad's dogs and we will be back there soon.  He also got to play with my cousins husky (70 pound husky!  Chance can walk under him!) and he had a blast!  He did not back down to Stolie and instead would get in the play stance and growl and bark to egg him on.  He has also met Bailey who doesn't live too far from us and is only a few weeks older.  I get calls now and then when Bailey is wild asking if Chance can come over and wear him out :)  We plan to have some play dates soon.  Bailey just went through puppy kindergarten at the same place, so we are going to get them in the same intermediatte class when Chance is done with his first class.

I will send you picture when I get some developed...he is such a ham, whenever I go to take a picture he has to get up and check out what the heck I am doing!  He has a lot more silver on his back now, a lot getting dark and the top of his head is slowly but surely going from the white to the silver. He has been a challenge at times (like any puppy!  Nothing out of the ordinary!) but has been a real joy and so much fun! 

Hope this finds you well and I will send pictures when I have them!

Here is a picture of Typha.  Typha was born May 27 2001 and we got him on August 17, 2001.  He is such a pleasure to have around.  He has brought a lot happiness into our lives.  Everyone has commented on how well behaved and calm he is for a puppy.  We just say "Well we worked hard with him and don't let him fool you he can be a little devil from time to time."   We took him to puppy training class and passed with flying colours.  He loves to go for runs, long walks and hikes through the bush.  He gets along and plays very well with other dogs.  He loves children and is very gentle.  And we like to think that when he vocalizes we are having a very meaningful conversation with him.  He doesn't snap, growl, jump up, or bark (unless he really wants something which is not very often) and with the training is a pleasure to walk.  We had him out pulling for the fist time last week and as soon as he realized that the tire he was pulling was not chasing him he seemed to really enjoy pulling.  We are hoping to get another husky from Aruff Ranch in the future to keep out puppy company but until then we will enjoy every minute we spend with Typha.

I love my little Chaos.  She is so sweet and so eager to please.  She is well-adjusted, healthy and playful.  Her fine breeding and the love that was instilled by being raised within your family is so apparent through her perfectly balanced personality and excellent social behavior.  I would highly recommend your puppies to anyone.  I have had a couple other dogs from puppies, and they  had so many problems.

I picked up some books on puppy training and behavior.  One of the books listed some important things to look for in a puppy that may show problems.  Chaos received a totally clean bill of health as an emotionally stable and well brought up pup.  She is so well adjusted.  She is not skittish or shy, nor is she overly aggressive.  She is a well-mannered, healthy, well-adjusted, playful little girl and I would recommend your puppies to anyone

Sharon and Pete (and family too),

We just wanted to give you an update on Blossom, now known as Echo.Echo has adjusted very well to her new home and her new Sibe companion Timber.  Although Timber is only 11 months old she has taken on the roll of surrogate mother to Echo.  They get along great.  Like Timber, Echo too has a great temperament and personality.

Thank you for helping bring another adorable Sibe into our home through quality breeding.

Mercury is an amazing animal.  The intelegence level was outstanding for the breed.  According the the local vet, he was the most socialized and well adjusted Husky she had come across.

Quick story:  He liked to dig.  I backfilled many a whole in the yard.  I was pretty upset when I came out of the house one day and he was mud up to his ears and was frantically digging.  Came find that he had found a leek in my underground sprinkler system and in the process saved me a lot of time searching and digging.

Calypso joined our family on Thanksgiving of 2000.  She has been a wonderful addition to our family.  She instantly took to our daughter, who was 2 1/2 at the time and became her best friend.  We recently had a son, and when we brought him home and showed him to Calypso, all she could do was lick him in the face.  She is wonderful around children, so much so that the neighborhood kids stop quite frequently to see if they can take her on a walk.  She has made many doggy friends in the neighborhood, enjoying playing in the yard or park with them and also going on walks.  We are hoping to move in the next year to a larger home with a large back yard so that we may possibly get a second dog.  We have already decided that it will be another Husky (my wife wants a white one), so Calypso will have a full time companion.  We will definitely call you if this is a possible purchase for us.  Thank you again so much, we are very grateful for Calypso.

Hello! 

I thought I would write a quick email and let you know how 
the puppies doing!  Everyone thought I was crazy for driving to Minnesota to pick up puppies, but honestly, I'm glad I did.  These two are such wonderful dogs.  They get along great 
with everyone, people, children, other dogs, and especially eachother.  They have brought tons and tons of smiles to 
South Bend, IN. They get more visitors at the house than I 
do. Everywhere we take them people tell us how beautiful they are.  Our vet and his staff have commented on the quality of their looks, and there temperment.  They can keep me busy some times but they really do know when it's time to behave. I'm so glad that I bought the two sisters, they are wonderful thanks again!

Dear Sharon, 

        I purchased Rush from you about 2 years ago, and I have love every moment of it.  It has been a great experience for me.  I just thought I would send you this picture of her that I had taken in March.  She seems so large but she barely weighs 37 pounds.  I get compliments on her all the time, she is a very beautiful dog.  I have not had many hard time with her although she has gotten loose a couple of times and I had to go out on a hunt/chase for her.  She is such a loving dog not only to me but also to strangers.  I took her to puppy classes when she was a puppy, but never continued on because she is a very obedient dog.  I take her to get groomed once a month and the lady that does it always compliments me on how good she is.  She says that she has never saw a husky so calm and patience as Rush.  She loves people more than she likes other dogs.  The neighbors come over with there dog, but Rush wants to play with the kids and not the dog.  This picture is one of the many that I have got taken of her.  I get a couple of pictures taken a year.  She is like a daughter to me, she goes everywhere with me.  She even loves to travel with me.  We go visit my parents in Indiana once a month and she sits just like a human the whole ride.  She is the dog that everyone dreams of having.  I never thought that owning a dog could be so much fun.  Thanks for such a great dog.  If I ever get another dog I will be calling you, once you own a husky like Rush you will always stay with them.  I could not ask for a better dog.  You do a great job at breeding these dogs, I have never saw a husky so calm and patience as Rush is.  She even got award from the doggie trainer "best in the class" she was so amazed of how easily Rush learned. Thanks again

My name is Christine Williams. We live in Beaver Meadows, PA and I found your web site to be the most informative about Huskies. We have owned our little girl for almost one year now and love her very much. She has brought so much joy to our family. (I’m not sure if her sister (a chocolate Lab) would agree though)  Even though we had done much research on Huskies, she does some things that are very weird. But nothing we would ever get rid of her for. I am so glad to have found your web-site and love reading all the information that you have there. I have enclosed our family picture as a thank you for all your helpful guidance. At some point we would also like to add to our happy family but right now we are just looking at all the beautiful other Huskies there are out there. I would like to keep in touch with you, if I have other questions that maybe you could answer. Thank you so much again for all the information that has helped us in the past.

Sincerely yours,

The Williams Family

Copper & White Female Siberian Husky,named Sadie, 
who is very outgoing & energetic

Are you happy with us as a breeder:
Awesome! We will definitely use you for our next husky
(trying to hold out 1 year)

Is there anything we could do better: 
Maybe an info page on what type of food to feed them, with how 
much and how often. Advice on how to help them through the first 
couple weeks at bedtime. (This is in our info packet on our webpage)

Do you feel your puppy was worth the price: 
Yes

What did you think of the puppy pkt: 
Did not receive one 
(This is our info packet available on our webpage)

What would you have added to the puppy pkt: 
Leash & collar (If unavailable we substitute extra toys, etc)

I would change: 
Not a thing, we are loving every minute with our new puppy
                                                                                                                             

Do you have any comments? 

We would definitely recommend your puppies to anyone looking for a Husky. Our puppy is so great with people and extremely outgoing. This is a total change for us since our first husky came from a pet store and did not like people or kids at all, she was not a social dog at all.
