Mobezilla Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 I thought this would be a cute thread, but I don't know, we'll see how it goes. I've had both these - and many other things - said to me about Yuki that just make me laugh at the stupidity of the statement XD 'Your dog looks like a wolf.' 'Is she a mini husky?' Oh and let's not forget this lovely comment I got on one of Yuki's photos from deviant art XD "Dawww! I wish huskies had personalities more like goldens xD" So let's see what others we can get!

Princess Maya Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 So far Maya's got the wolf comment, another one was "look at her eyes, she's evil" (which really annoyed me, they're beautiful) and my personal favourite, "Should you not have a muzzle on that German Shep?" - to which I replied "If she was a German Shep. I would have a muzzle on her"....ye don't want to know what I muttered under my breath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austinville Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 "Does it bite?" (Well, of course she does - that's precisely why I have her out in public, you donkey! I want her to get her daily intake of blood and guts - she hasn't killed in a while and I'm hoping that she will today so that my grandchildren are safe when they come to stay tonight.)

Povodny Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hmm... Where's your sled is an age old favourite and beginning to wear a bit thin. I'm even fed up of saying 'its in the garage!' Which technically is true except its a scooter and now its cold its out of the garage on a daily basis Do they bite Do they howl Do they all have blue eyes Ooo is it blind in one eye? (Togo's bi-eyed) Who's walking who? Bet they cost a bomb to feed How much did you pay for them!!?? They're just the ones off the top of my head :$ lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devildust76 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 We get asked how much Kodi was all of the time. I respond by saying he was free with coupons from Kellogs boxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuvMyKai Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Aha lol ive had a lot of those too, the ones i can remember are: Hes part wolf isnt he? Is his dad a wolf? Is his mum a wolf? Is it a girl? Will you breed him? Oh thats sad you got him neutered thats a bit mean (The amount of will power it takes not to smack these people over the head is unbelievable !) How much did he cost? Where can i get one? They need a lot of exercise you know (yes i know, can you not see the lead in my hand and him walking?) Does he bite? And the worst one ever was when kai was a 10 week old pup and i was in the park and this chav came upto me and said ... wait for it... 'Did you get him for fighting?!!!' I literally stared at him for a few minutes to try and register what he said and i was like seriously, can you not see the size of him why the hell do you think i would get him for fighting, like seriosuly what is wrong with you?!! Well lo and behold he brings out a very big staffy and starts showing kai to him getting his dog really riled up and he literally was growling, then i heard him tell one of his friends 'ill let him off for a bit and watch hes gonna go after that puppy man its gonna be sick!' At this moment, i saw red! i was furious!!! so i calmly went upto him and told him that if her let his dog off and it attempted to touch my kai, i would rip his head off (the boys not the dogs, i wouldnt hurtthe dog when its the boys fault) I then told him that instead of using his dog to try and make himself look big, he should go home and grow a pair. Lets just say he didnt let the dog off in the end. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuvMyKai Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 I can't believe that happened. Poor baby Kai some people are pure scum. Grrrrrrrr! I know right! But now hes grown up, i dont think anyone would try asking me this again, its weird because what i see as a big cuddly fluffy puppy, others see as a large scary intimidating beast lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleLuka Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 You should breed him with a wolf. That's such a waste to have him neutered you could make so much money! Where'd you get him? I want a husky! To which I refuse to say people are so dumb they have no idea how much work it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People will cross to the other side of the road sometimes when they see him coming and if he 'talks' to them you can see the horror on their face I've heard whispered comments like 'can you believe that dog growled at me?' and 'why would you get a dog like that?' Morons! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malagirl Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Today at the dog park, all these lab owners were talking about how much they shed. I said you think your dog sheds? You ain't seen shedding. I win! Since she is a malamute I get why doesn't she have blue eyes How old is your husky? Isn't she too short to be a malamute? (she is actually taller than the standard) My favorite... What is his name? (ummm he is a girl and her name is maggie) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She doesn't pay attention, and those owners get mad and think it is my fault their dog went crazy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not shedding, these are just some lost hairs! Mine loose more hair than that when they're NOT shedding, lol. I'm afraid some people think I'm a creep when I cheer out loud when someone asks "Is that a husky?". Samoyeds, wolves, werewolves(yup) is what people always call them. But huskies? Barely I should print out a few papers saying "Official certificate for proving that you are able to recognise pure breed Siberian Huskies" and give them out to people who guess it right, just for the laughs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're just the ones off the top of my head :$ lol I get the blind comment all the time because Yuki is bi-eyed too, and I always get the 'it must cost a lot to feed her!' followed by 'how much did you pay?'. When annoying or ignorant people ask me where I got her from, I avoid the question because I don't want a husky homed with someone who doesn't understand the amount of work that comes with them XD Am I a terrible human being for this?

Elyse Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 "Did your dog just growl at me?" or "Your dog growled at me!" - When Suka really didn't, he just 'wooed' and people are stupid. "Is he a wolf-dog?" "Is he a wolf!" "But he looks like a wolf!" "He's not a real husky cause he doesn't have blue eyes" "He's fixed!? I bet you could have made tons off of his puppies!" "He's so beautiful, is he for sale?" (You won't believe how many times I've gotten that one!) "What's her name?" or "She's a good girl!" - HE'S A BOY! LOOK AT HIS UNDER CARRIAGE!!!! "How much did he cost and where can I get one?" - He was $150. Head down to your local shelter and have a look, but do your research first because [insert 'speech to discourage husky ownership' here] "He looks deadly!" -.- "He's definitely a wolf! Look at his coat!" " You shouldn't have gotten him fixed, its cruel!" - *smack*. First of all, I didn't have a choice cause he came from the shelter. And second, even if he didn't 'come' fixed, I would have fixed him anyways. "You should let him offlead. He won't run away. I do it with my [golden, border collie, GSD, etc] all the time!" "Why is his tail not curly? He's not a real husky!" (It doesn't curl all the time, only when he's excited/being dominant) and the latest one: "You must be an irresponsible owner because I never see him off of his leash. You're being cruel, he wants to run!" (Actually, no. But you keep telling yourself that.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed #5 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Now I feel bad, I don't have any good ones ... since I have two who look entirely different I do get the "What breed are they?" Sasha is an intact ( for about another 36 hours! ) female, so I do get the occasional "Are you going to breed them?" ... "Well, no, if you've looked enough to realize that they are male and female, you should probably have noticed that he doesn't have the ( and thank you, [MENTION=3404]SolitaryHowl[/MENTION], I loved this ) undercarriage to do anything!" (( Ignoring the fact that he's an Alaskan and she's a Siberian! )) "But you are going to breed her?" ... "Uh, no, she's a rescue and doesn't have an papers and I don't see any other reason to breed her!" Most of the questions / comments I get down here tend to be real civil!

Talos mom Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 I've gotten all of these! the most recent once that have really gotten to me are: -"thats not a husky he isnt furry enough" Dont people understand that husky arent always fur balls !! -"your malamute is too small you need to take care of him better" first he is NOT a malamute and he is five months old! people should know what their talking about before they give out their two cense. -at the dog park a dog really got on talos and was being mean the owner said "well if he didnt look so mean this wouldnt happen" that guy does not belong owning a dog, especially an aggressive one! -and my favorite which I get from everyone when I explain the meaning of his name "oh so he must be mean" the best part is their petting him while saying this!

Storm Angel n Auroras Mum Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 wheres your sled?

(yeah coz if they werent i would bring them out in public) (about storm) - Is it a wolf?

Povodny Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Oh another one I remembered.. Regarding Togo, I get the "what's his name?" I respond "Togo" and they come back with.. " you should have called him Bowie!" and like Al because we have a few of them we're always asked if we breed. They're constantly referred to as Akitas as well or that they're too small for siberians :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could count the amount of hairs on my with two hands. That's not shedding, these are just some lost hairs! Mine loose more hair than that when they're NOT shedding, lol. i will say Labs do shed a lot. Obviously not as much as Luka but the hair texture is very different. i find it harder to get my mom's lab's hair off of my clothes than i do my husky. it weaves into the fabric and sticks because it's so course. i let their lab Cody ride in my car a few times and it took me months to get the hair out.
