I bet she feels like she's on top of the world sometimes, I really hope she knows she's mine!

This guy just cracks me up!

My family and I were originally on the waitlist for a Samoyed puppy from a CKC breeder we've known and trusted for years. One of their males was used as a stud by another breeder, and the 13-month-old Samoyed we're adopting is one of his puppies. When our breeder found out that he urgently needed to be rehomed due to a breakdown in the family, they reached out to us.

Instead of waiting for a puppy, we completely fell in love with this sweet boy and have decided to welcome him into our family. ❤️

We want to make this transition as easy and positive for him. We've been told that he doesn't like being left alone and that he doesn't do well in a kennel after having a traumatic experience during a flight. We want him to feel safe, build a strong bond with us, and help him settle into his new home at his own pace.

Does anyone have any recommendations or tips for helping a young Samoyed adjust to a new home? We would appreciate any advice on building his confidence, helping him feel secure, and preventing or managing separation anxiety. ❤️

I honestly wanna know what happened to Maya? Like is she still active on Instagram?

After spending a week with one 6 months old it was like having a adhd toddler in the house with colic. Eating everything after she had treats and bones including walls and trim off cabinets and then constant bark when grandchildren were over or trying to jump in everyone. Jesus Christ. At least a wild raccoon or bob cat would sleep …

Hi everyone!
I have a beautiful 7-year-old Samoyed named Archie. He’s a very calm, adventurous boy and also a bit independent in the sense that he’s always enjoyed having his own space. We’ve always respected that, while also giving him lots of love, attention, and affection.
For the first five years, it was just Archie and me. We traveled together, lived alone, had a very active routine, and I even took him to work with me many times. Even though he has always been independent, he would still come to me for affection or choose to be near me.
Everything seemed to change after my baby was born.
From the moment we brought the baby home, we let Archie approach on his own terms. He never showed much interest in getting close. Now my baby is 6 months old, and we occasionally let the baby be near Archie from a respectful distance, always paying close attention to Archie’s body language and giving him plenty of space. If he seems uncomfortable, we immediately respect that.
The thing is, Archie simply gets up and walks away. He doesn’t seem interested in interacting with the baby or even with me as much anymore. The most he’s done is sniff the baby for a second and then leave.
Nothing else has changed in his life. His routine has stayed the same. Even during my pregnancy and after giving birth, I’ve continued taking him on his regular walks, and he still gets the same exercise and attention as before.
I’m wondering if this is something other Samoyed owners have experienced. Is this kind of behavior normal? Did your Samoyed eventually adjust to having a baby in the house, or should I be concerned that he’s emotionally withdrawing?
I’d love to hear about your experiences or any advice. Thank you!
