Black dots on tongue?

Anyone else’s husky have black spots on their tongue? My guy has three. Whenever I fill out paperwork and it asks “distinguishing marks”, I put 3 black dots on his tongue. Kind of “Dr Seuss” 😁

Miss you so much baby girl

Hi guys. I've had to make the difficult decision to say goodbye to my baby girl Mia. She has been the one thing that kept me going over the last 15 years, but I had to do the right thing by her, despite desperately not wanting to let her go. I knew this day was coming, but it still feels too soon. Please treasure every day with your bundles of sunshine.

Got a new pup, first time Husky owner.

Got a new pup on Sunday, her name is Myka.

She's very quiet for right now.

However, she likes to hide under my couch a lot to go to bed.

I know brushing is one of the main things I have to do and exercise.

I take her for walks before work and my mom is with me and taking her for walks right now while I'm working so she doesn't get worried a lot and stressed out however, she's scared of other dogs and birds but really love kids (don't have any but she gets all excited when kids come to her).

During the night she likes to get the zoomies .

Any advice would be wonderful!

Thanks 😊

Newly Adoped husky went blind looking for advice

Hello! One month ago I adopted a almost 3 year old husky from Texas, whom I've named Hades. He was transported to Ohio. I was told he was healthy with no problems but upon arrival he had hyphema and over this past month he has gone blind. Ive brought him to the vet and er several times during this past month but it was in vain had he was offically diagnosed as permanently blind today.

He still has his eyes and we are in treatment to try and retain then for the time being. He is offically out of the cone i was told to keep him in over the last month. At this time I do not have the money to remove his eyes but I was told his pressures are lower enough it should be fine to leave them for now.

Anyway, im looking for some advice as both a new husky owner and now a owner to a blind dog. Ive previously had dogs growing up byt never just on my own. I have not had a blind animal before however I do have 3 special needs cats. They do have their claws.

I want to make sure Hades has a comfortable life while also not straining and making his eyes worse. Any advice on how best to train him around new people and dogs, at home or in general would be appreciated. I want to make sure he can still be active, run and play. He still likes to play fetch even if he cant see.

If anyone has any tech recommendations that would be beneficial to assist him would also be helpful.

Thank you!

Edit: Thank you everyone! I appreciate all the advice I've been given. Its been helpful in such an overwhelming situation. Hades first day without his cone on has been good! He seem to know his way around the house quite well already. We started new drops today and im starting vocal training with him. I have new puzzle, scent training and sound based toys on the way for him. Along with a clicker and dog whistle. Ill also be looking into some professional trainer for him. He is still in the process of learning English. (He was previously trained in Spanish.) And hes in the middle of service dog training. (This is on pause till he is more comfortable without his eyes) This sub has been very helpful and has helped provide some very high hopes he'll live a long happy life even without his eye sight.

My family has forbidden me from keeping it.

I have been living with this husky for two months, but my family doesn't allow me to keep it anymore because it always damages things. What should I do?

New member of the fam and first husky...

Never owned a husky before, but have owned an akita, a golden retriever, some chihuahua/terrier mixes, and a ridiculous amount of cats. Excited and terrified 😆

Is he a wooly Siberian or is he part malamute?

Did I adopt a wooly Siberian or is he part malamute? Someone left this poor baby in a parking lot and I rescued him from the shelter here in Phoenix. He’s very fluffy and more beefy than the husky I had that past away from lymphoma a couple months back.

Anyone else have an awkward husky?

He does not know how to be cozy and cuddle up and snuggle. He kinda just stands there.

Uh, she actually buried it! Question

We gave Saga a marrow bone from the butcher, and she just went outside and buried it. It's over 100 degrees here for the next forever, should I go dig it up and throw it away? Is it safe?

Puppy pic of Saga for tax.
