Hi friends! This has been on my mind lately, I just felt like it was the time to share a little reminder. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make sure you are 100% ready before bringing a puppy into your home.
Puppies are a LOT like babies! They go through teething, accidents in the house, sleepless nights, training struggles, chewing on things they shouldn’t, and so much more. They require patience, consistency, time, attention, and a whole lot of love. They will test your patience sometimes and there will be days when things aren’t easy. But that little puppy you bring home won’t stay little forever. They grow up, they learn, and they become a part of your family.
Please do your research BEFORE choosing a breed. Every breed has different needs, personalities, energy levels, and challenges. What works for one family may not work for another. And when it comes to Siberian Huskies, please understand that they are intelligent, energetic, independent, sometimes stubborn, and often VERY vocal dogs!😂 They need exercise, mental stimulation, training, attention, and an owner who understands their unique personalities. They are absolutely amazing dogs, but they aren’t the right fit for every lifestyle. So, when we ask if you have husky experience or have researched the breed, please understand that we aren’t trying to be rude, judgmental, or discourage you from getting one of our babies. We ask because we genuinely care about where our puppies go and the lives they will have. We want to see them thrive, be loved, and remain cherished members of their families for years to come. Our job doesn’t end when a puppy leaves our home. We want to know that we helped give them the best possible start in life.
Of course, we understand that there are genuinely heartbreaking situations where rehoming may be necessary for a dog’s safety or well being. Life can throw unexpected things at us and sometimes circumstances truly change. We would never want a dog to remain in an unsafe or unsuitable situation. But rehoming a dog simply because the puppy stage got hard, they started chewing, they became too energetic, they weren’t perfectly trained, or they turned out to be more work than expected is something that deserves a lot more thought BEFORE bringing that dog home.
Please remember that your dog doesn’t understand why they’re being given away. They don’t understand why the people they love, the home they know, the familiar smells, the routines, and the family they depend on are suddenly gone. Dogs form bonds with their people. Being moved from one home to another can be stressful, frightening, and confusing for them. They may struggle to adjust, and they have to learn to trust a whole new environment and new people. Think about that for a moment. You may see it as finding your dog another home, but to that dog, you’re the person they have loved and depended on. You’re their safe place. You’re their whole world. They didn’t ask to be brought home. We made that decision for them. And they deserve for us to take that responsibility seriously.
A dog isn’t something you get just because they’re cute, because your kids want a puppy, because you saw one on social media, or because you think it would be fun. A dog is a commitment through the puppy stage, the teenage stage, the difficult days, the messy days, the expensive days, and all the way into their senior years. They deserve patience when they’re learning, understanding when they make mistakes, and love even when they’re no longer the tiny, fluffy puppy you first brought home.
Before getting a puppy, ask yourself:
🤔 Do I have the time to properly train and care for this dog?
🤔 Can I provide the exercise, attention, and mental stimulation this breed needs?
🤔 Am I financially prepared for food, supplies, routine veterinary care, and unexpected medical expenses?
🤔 Am I prepared for the challenging stages, not just the cute ones?
🤔 Can I make a commitment to this dog for the next 10–15 years or longer?
🤔 Will I continue to show up for this dog when things aren’t as easy as I imagined?
Please don’t make a lifelong decision based on a temporary feeling. Do your research, ask questions, talk to breeders and experienced owners, and make sure you’re choosing a dog whose needs fit your life.
And to all of our families who have welcomed one of our babies into your home, please know this: Our door doesn’t close when our puppies leave our home. If you ever find yourself in a situation you can no longer keep one of our babies, PLEASE reach out to us first. We are not here to judge you or make you feel ashamed. We would much rather you come to us and let us do our best to help than see one of our babies end up in an unsafe situation or passed from home to home. Whether we can offer advice, help you explore your options, or assist in finding a safe and loving solution, we will do everything we reasonably can to help. We can’t promise every situation will have an easy answer, but we will always care about the well being of our puppies. Our commitment to our babies doesn’t end on pickup day. They will always hold a special place in our hearts.
At the end of the day, our dogs count on US to give them the best possible life. They depend on us for their food, shelter, safety, comfort, medical care, and love. They can’t make these decisions for themselves. We owe it to them to be responsible, patient, and committed owners.
And if you ever find yourself struggling with your dog, please reach out for help before giving up. Training resources, experienced owners, veterinarians, and breeders may be able to offer guidance and support. You don’t have to figure everything out alone.
Our puppies are not just puppies to us. They are little pieces of our hearts that we trust someone else to love and care for when they leave our home. We want every single one of them to have a FOREVER HOME, not just a home until things get difficult.
Please love them through every stage. Be patient with them while they learn. Give them the life they deserve. And remember that to you, they may be a part of your world, but to them, YOU ARE THEIR WHOLE WORLD.
💕🐾With love from our husky family to yours.💕🐾
