My poor Shiloh is sick



Shiloh is having some eye issues.  This morning she would not open her eyes, so we started doing some checking, and both of her eyes were really really red. We decided to do the safe thing and took her to the vet tonight.  This is a pic of us waiting for her eyes to get numb so she could get a pressure test done.

They are not 100% sure what is wrong.  It could be Dry Eye, but not sure yet.  They have her on Artificial Tears and Neo-Poly-Dex for the next 7 days, and then we go back to the vet.  Here tear production is 1/3rd what it should be and her eye pressure was very low.

She seems so sad to me!!  She is still having a hard time opening her eyes.  My poor Shiloh!

Her birthday is also coming up!  November the 8th she will be 9 years old!
If you want to send her a Card, or a letter or anything, our Address is

Gone to the Snow Dogs
P.O. Box 12
Alpena, MI 49707

Or just leave her some comments!  I will read them all to her.  My poor little girl.

Update on Bear Bear's Case - Siberian Husky Shot by off duty Federal Officer





Justice is needed for a Siberian Husky named Bear Bear.  Retweet this, facebook it, email it, anything you can do to get National attention to this story!  


County executive forces department investigation against off duty Husky shooter

So it looks like things are starting to go in the right direction for the family of Bear Bear.  At least the Department is now being forced to do a full investigation.  I have contact their police department to find out how I can get copies of the reports via the Freedom of Information Act.  So we will see what they say.

Hug you family members today, you never know what could happen tomorrow.  This Off Duty Police officer that is supposed to be there to serve and protect, has made my faith in the system drop even more.  The gun should never have been fired.

Justice for Bear Bear! Siberian Husky shot by Federal Officer!



Justice is needed for a Siberian Husky named Bear Bear.  Retweet this, facebook it, email it, anything you can do to get National attention to this story!  

Bear Bear was shot at a dog park near his home.  He was playing off leash in the fenced in area of the park, when an off duty Federal Officer, came in with his German Shepard on leash.  Bear Bear of course, wanted to play, and went over to the new dog.  The Officer thought the dog was playing to hard, and asked the caretaker (the owners brother), to call the dog off.  When he didn't move fast enough (wasn't even given enough time), the Federal Officer pulled out a gun and Shot Bear Bear.  

"Rettaliala said that after the officer shot Bear-Bear, the dog didn't yelp or cry, just lay down in the grass, bleeding heavily. "He just went and laid down," she said. "I just can't get over it and I don't think it's being taken seriously because it was an animal involved.""

This is an outrage.  Make sure you go and read the article.  This dog did NOTHING wrong.  According to the owner, when animal control came to check the shepard dog, he had NOT ONE SCRATCH!! No blood, no bite marks, not scratches, no injuries.  The dogs were playing, that is all.  It was not aggesive at all.  And on top of that, the Shepard was ON LEASH!  The Officer could have left the situation, but instead he felt the need to take the live of a beloved Dog.

This dog was a Rescue from Tails of the Tundra Siberian Husky Rescue.  Tails of the Tundra on Facebook  And there is a bit more information and updates going on on their facebook site.

For anyone that would like to contribute to Bear's owners medical/legal costs you can donate directly through PayPal. The e-mail to enter is k.rettaliata@gmail.com


As I get more information on where we can start emailing, mailing, and filling complaints, I will let you all know.  This is a horrible situation.  This dog did not deserve to die.  The Officer should be charged with something!  

Here are some other articles on this situation

The Siberian Husky Working Dog

So this morning, I read this article http://www.bakersfield.com/news/local/x735123902/SHERRY-DAVIS-Keeping-your-Husky-working-dog-busy and it prompted me to write an email to her.  I thought the article was very well written, but I felt compelled to write a response to her.  Here is the response I wrote!

Happy Friday from Shiloh, Shelby, and Their Mom!

I read your article, and can tell you have been having some issues with your husky.  It says you are a dog trainer, but I am sure you already know, huskies are very very special, and have to be treated differently then other dogs.

First thing I noticed was what you said about being at work all day, and the dog destroying things.  Do you crate train?  I have experience with two Siberian Huskies.  One is 8 years old, and one is 2.  I crate trained both of my girls.  It is not only safer for the dogs, it helps so they don't destroy your stuff.  When a dog tears something up when you are not around, they chance choking on parts they are chewing off, and getting hurt.  So crate training really is a safe way to keep the dog safe, and your items safe.

Shiloh would stayed in her crate every time we left the house until she was about 3 years old.  Then we would slowly let her have the run of the house for small amounts of time, and eventually she didn't need to be put in her crate anymore.  Shelby is only 2, so she still goes in hers when we leave.  My husband and I also both worth full time.  Both of my dogs LOVED their crate.  They even will go and just sleep in it when we are home.  We always leave the door open on them when we are home.  They need to understand this is a safe place for them

The escaping part.  There are a few more costly ways to fix this.  You can dig below your fence and put in blocks or rocks, so it's harder for the dog to dig under, or you can go higher on your fence so they can't jump.  We didn't want to do either of those things, so even though we have a fenced in yard, Shelby is not allowed off of her runner unless we are outside playing with her. My dogs are of course, indoor dogs, and they only really use the yard as a bathroom, and once in a while for playing.  Huskies are by nature, pack animals, and should never just be left alone outside.

Getting our 2nd husky was one of the best things we ever did.  Shiloh became a much more balanced dog when we got her a compatible playmate. So that is another thought for you.

Exercise can be hard when you are both working full time. We do like you said in your article, the hiking, backpacking, biking, and sledding with our girls.  Another thing you can do, is train your dog to use a treadmill.  It's a nice option to have if you do end up running out of time for taking your dog for a walk or a run.

Those are just my thoughts.  I loved your article!  I wish you would have added a picture of Koda!  You can check out our girls at http://www.GonetotheSnowDogs.com or on their Youtube channel at http://www.Youtube.com/GonetotheSnowDogs

It's that time of year! Time to go Topless in our Jeep Wrangler! When we bought it last year, we didn't have a safe way of keeping our dogs in the backseat, so they could never really come have fun with us if the top was down. This year we invested in a Cargo Restraint System by Smitty Built. The girls LOVE it! We took them for a short ride around town last night, and they had a blast!
