Bailey was born in February of 1996. She came to us in a much different
way. I received a phone call from my cousin one day. She was wondering
if we wanted a puppy. I was very hesitant at first and told her that I would
need to discuss it further with my husband so I told her I would have to
get back with her on it. I asked her why they wanted to get rid of her and
their reason was that she was running a daycare in their home and insurance
reasons were a big part in it. So I hung up the phone knowing there was
no way hubby was going to allow me to get another animal. For those who
do not know me...we have horses, cats, birds and of course the huskies..not to
mention the tank full of fish if they count!*S*
The discussion started....Hubby said a big flat "NO!"....a week later, Bailey had come to live with
us! The moment I went to pick her up...I knew we were going to have our
work cut out for us! I don't think she had ever been on a leash ...if she
had I'd be surprised. She completely crouched...but that was because
of all the commotion I am sure. She was VERY submissive and when we
got her here...she did not know what to think of the boys. We left her
alone for a few days with the boys only getting to sniff her through the
pen. Then she started getting brave and we introduced them to her one
at a time. She now thinks she rules the roost and she definitely keeps the
boys in line.
Bailey is not AKC registered...as they had the option of papered price
and no-paper price...they chose the later. However....I would very
much like to know WHO they bought her from after talking to my cousin
at a later date again. I don't know what or how we got on the conversation
about her bi-colored eyes...but whoever sold her to them told her that
it was not unusual for huskies to have two different colored eyes (which it
is not) ...BUT she also told them that the eyes would change to the
same color as she got older!
Bailey turned 14 in February '10. I decided her page needed a little updating to reflect her life and how she is doing. Since the boys are both gone, she has become a velcro husky and never leaves our sides. We love her dearly and don't know what we would do without her. She has grown into a very lovely and beautiful husky and she gets even more beautiful with each passing year.
You've meet the bunch...so now take some time to check out the other pages
we have to offer on Siberian Husky information.
