Axel is a husky x elkhound. He is 4 years old.
He is coming down to my house this Saturday! :D Which is tomorrow.
He can finally stay with us, first we will have him on a two week trial if all goes well we can adopt him! :D

I will be taking lots of pics!

I don't know what to do to pass the time. :eek:
It's actually 1am Friday xD So I have a while and I can't sleep :eek:

Very excited :D
We were going to buy a puppy but then I saw Axels ad and saw that he would be perfect. He is a laid back dog who is obedient :eek:

So he comes tomorrow around lunchtime :D

Even though I completely understand your excitement!!!!

I got about 5 hours sleep? I was too busy watching the blacklist/sleepy hallow and playing dead rising 3. I'll try to get more sleep tonight :eek:

Thank you :D
I also love his coat. He is going to need daily grooming. Ive already bought the right brushes and everything. :D He goes though heavy moults.

Ash, he's beautiful! Put a little oil in his food daily; something with omega 3s and 6s. Here in the U.S. I used a product called "Shed Stop" that was very good for their coats and literally cut down the nonseasonal shedding to a tenth of what it was. Northern breeds like the one you're soon adopting shed HEAVILY twice a year. The term is "blowing" though- these breeds are said to "blow their coat" in the spring and fall.

He's stunning :) I hope he's even better than you imagined!!

"Shed heavily" is an understatement at my house lol I have two huskies! With two sheds per year each dog...that's a lotta hair!! Hahaha. No more carpet in my house!! :D
