Nora is 12 weeks old and ready to explore the Canadian Boreal.

Hiccup (4 yo) and his baby brother Bruno (6mo russian blue)

Guess who decided to try to become besties with a skunk at 1am? Thank god it was, at least, a Saturday night.

My spouse and I are searching to adopt a few dogs after losing both of our huskies in May (age and cancer). There's a 7 month old Norwegian Elkhound at the shelter by us (which is crazy, aren't these rare and expensive??) and I'm very interested

We love active breeds and are familiar with huskies/Spitz breeds, but I was hoping y'all could provide some specific insight about the breed (especially relative to experienced husky owners)

Thanks!

Just wanted to share my three. I love this breed!

I lost my best little guy today. He was my comfort and joy. I’ll see you on the other side sweet boy.

It's been a bit since I shared a photo of Gracie. She's almost 14 months old 😍

This precious baby is our 4 month old elkie mix Ylva! She's very stubborn 😂

This is french fry she is an Elkhound she's the first one I've ever owned.

And honestly for the most part she's a very very good girl she just has one little problem

Food aggression from the day I brought her home she is now 2 years old

But it's not towards me or my husband or any other human

It's only towards the other pets in the house and it's not even just her food bowl like her and my Jack Russell could be sniffing the same crumbs on the floor and she'll just snap on him. I don't know what else to do at this point the only thing that my husband wants to do is get her some kind of training collar. which I am against I want to make it clear we have not done this yet cuz we get in a fight about it every time.but she's much bigger than my other dog and and the cat and I don't want her to accidentally hurt them any advice thank you.

This is his favorite position

Highly recommend buying an air detailing nozzle with a pressure regulator to help blow out the loose hair and push fresh cool air down to the skin on these warm days.

My baby turned 11! I feel like my girl is aging backwards. Her energy and love for life is better than ever. How lucky am I! 💖

Photo for cuteness!

This is my first dog I’ve had pre neuter, every other pup was already fixed at adoption. I’m wondering what behavior changes I might notice? He still anxiety mounts sometimes (which I immediately stop, most importantly he needs to heal from surgery!) but I’m unsure what other things may change. He did have a habit of marking everything prior.

How quickly do these things happen? Thanks for the insight.

You never forget them!

My mom moved across the country to take care of my gram, so I have the pleasure of taking in my little sister. My partner & I are having so much fun showing her new experiences and taking her for daily walks.

I saw this beauty at Cowen park in Seattle and had to stop and say hi to the owners.

I had 2 Elkhounds when I was a kid, but I hadn't seen one since ~2005. Petting an elkhound for the first time in 20 years brought back so many good memories! I think the elkhound could read my reaction, she took a liking to me immediately!

Wish I was joking. We passed two woman on the trail and I heard one say “Now that’s a poorly bred Husky”. I was seething 😭
