Skya, the Dog of the Day
Name: Skya
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female Breed: Siberian Husky
Home: Utah, USA
 
   This is Skya, the craziest little husky you'll ever see. She's small and cute, weighing in at around thirty pounds, she's literally half the size of my largest husky, Nebo. She thinks she's the biggest though. She acts tough with other dogs, never backing down on a game of tug, especially with her lab/pit mix buddy, Killer, who is also twice her size. As you can see with the muddy photo, she's not afraid to get dirty either.

    She and her "sister" Keva are the terrible twosome and love getting into trouble. She's always been very weird with strangers, even as a tiny puppy she did not want to be near people she didn't know. Socializing her and taking her to puppy classes didn't help, it actually seemed to make her worse, she really only likes people she knows. She's a complete nut, I've never met another dog like her. But she loves me, she's my shadow and the only husky who will consistently come to me when called. She's very affectionate to those she's comfortable with; she loves to have her neck scratched. She enjoys walks and hikes, and of course, playing in the snow. She is super fast and can outrun all of the other dogs, often leaping right over them like its nothing. I didn't intend to get another husky, but I couldn't resist - and I'm glad that I have her. She's a little quirky, but she's a beautiful, sweet pup, which is what makes her special.
