Weird. I nick named my current husky (Atlas) ding ding or crack head because he has one brown eye and the other is half brown and blue. Looks weird

Sort of. It is the diminutive of Michael, which means "who is like God".

"Mishka" is closer.

Our 5 month old got sent home from the groomers yesterday for making too much noise and disturbance. We were so embarrassed!! He did fine last month. We have had this groomer for over 10 years.

Yes, it is a puppy cut - he's a big kid (50 lbs./23"), but only 5 months old.

That's the look of "I know you have treats, so hand them over!"

BMW003E · 01-29-2021, 11:55 PM

Celeste at 4 months. She definitely knows how to work the camera.

You’re correct. It is Mishka that we have in mind.

2 more possibilities are
Finn-in reference to John Finn Medal of Honor recipient
Blue- my wife reference for her favorite song (Mr. Blue Sky) for me is in reference of the movie Old School “You’re my boy Blue”.

Atlas is not very verbal but when he hears other huskies videos he does howl.

Mixitt · 01-30-2021, 10:01 AM

Been rescuing dogs (and cats) for decades. Patty, a rescued healer and a great farm companion is ADDICTED to playing ball and waits for me to grab the Chuckit everyday at Happy Hour, 5:00 p.m.

Mixitt · 01-30-2021, 10:06 AM

We are all blessed with great friends. Nice pix ya'll!

2 rescues (RIP) Minka the cat and Snoball loved to wrestle.

Littlebear · 01-30-2021, 10:28 AM

Good for you for rescuing!

I played your Atlas video for Onslow, and it got him barking & looking for Atlas!

Wife and I were really involved with the Greyhound rescue team back in the 90's and early 2000's. We would rescue and help foster them till they found good homes. We ended up keeping two of the rescues, Flashy, who's race name was Flashy Feet because of her coat and she was fast on track, as well as Valentino named after the fact that we rescued him on Valentine's day.

Wow, pix and the love for those that can't speak for themselves is overwhelming. There's way too much animal neglect and abuse!

Captain Blood · 01-30-2021, 06:57 PM

Tired of fraidy pets. The fish are absolutely terrified of me. I can't really even feed them. The dog won't go for a walk, or get in my car.

I'll let you borrow one of my horses. They are lovable.
