We had a Husky for 11 years. She was the most loving and intelligent dog
I've ever seen. When she died after a brief illness, nearly 3 years ago, the
entire family and a few of the neighbors cried openly for 3 days.

She had one annoying habit...She loved to run! If she got out the front
door, she'd run till SHE decided it was time to come home.

"Mercedes" ashes are on our mantle...Still miss that dog.

You'd be hard pressed to do better.
