Hahaha

I invented olives????

 

I love olives, must try out those recipes, thank you much.

Give credit where credit is due???

His personal alterations on some are gonna be interesting! I bet there all gonna be wicked!

He only used my recipe in one( if you go back spiel youll see i posted 3 different recipes

Nvrmnd here it is

???

Hahaha now your screwed! I feel like a crack dealer???

Youll be adding olives to everything, or you know, eating bowls full of olives ???

Nope. Give er a try boy!!!

A month will do!

We seen hundreds last night in NW ontario.

Perfect clear skies, what a show!!!

^^^????

 

California has a higher population than Canada but only about the same amount of water as I like in my drinks.

Oh I know but it seems like such an odd strategy.

Some weird science thats for sure

What the????

You guys are great. Great sympathy, perspective and advice.

 

I'm cheap and will likely just post on kijiji for a free dog, as I did to get Buddy. Seems a lot of people get huskies in town and then realize they need a lot of space, which I have.

 

Why females MB? I would have thought males would be more protective and less attractive to other animals.

 

He ate raw meat his whole life. I raise and butcher rabbits so he gets lots of treats. Unfortunately he was the WORST hunting dog unless it was a chipmunk or porcupine hahaha.

Honestly, all ive had is females, and they were all awesome dogs/hunters.

All the males ive met are more relaxed, although both need tons of excercise, i believe the females to be more fierce(just my experience)

Same with grandmas elk hounds, the females do the trick(but really maybe its just how they are raised??? Im not sure)

And yes, when you get a new buddy, keep up on the meat? makes a nice tough healthy dog

Very nice. Slick would be the word. I can see it obviously but the banner at the top is the old one. Back to doing dishes now, lots of dishes. Paper plates for the next 3 days.

Slick is a term used by hiphopsters????

Nice design OFC, very nice

Thats simply amazing!!!

whatta pretty bird

Not trying to de-rail this thread but...do you mean one dog taking out a whole Wolf pack at once?? If that's the case that IS one tough dog. I mean wolves live 365 days a year in the wild and hunt/kill daily. They take down Moose and even Bison out west, which is the largest land animal in North America.

An individual dog stands no chance at a bigger pack of wolves. But they go after one and sometimes two and take them down, the rest leave. Here the packs are usually only 4 deep, maybe 6

Happens all the time up up here, its pretty much a normal occurance

Sorry for you loss, its never easy losing a pet, and it's even tougher to predators

 

Some domestic dogs stand a good chance against a pair of single coyote or eastern wolves, but very few, even the largest, stand much chance against a pack. A pet is a permanent attractant to your residence, he will constantly attract them unless they have learned the reward is not worth the risk. I find a 40 grain sleeping pill from my trusty old 222 to be quite effective, but there are many other options out there

 

if you want a real wolf dog, look into the various breeds of livestock guardian dogs, but working dogs are generally not great pets

I totally disagree. Your opinion and thats great( your allowed that lol)

Malamutes will kill wolves, even packs.

I know because ive watched it for 12 years.

Most wolves wont even approach them. More often its the husky that initiates, and finishes, the fight

Imo only other dog that compares is elk hounds

My wife's cousin has been breeding Mals for 25 years. To me, they are over-grown lap dogs! LOL Sure, they will pull a sled all day, but majority of them that I have met, are lazy and would prefer a good nap, to any kind of aggression.

They may well be fighters, I just haven't experienced that.

That all said, sorry for your loss and maybe a Mal is the right dog for you... size alone might detract from an attack.

HH

Take em huntin and fishing right as pups(or up to about 1 year old) and they are gnarly tough, but still super gentle at home. Awesome awesome dogs.

Also Chad, when your ready of course, get females

And let them eat meat, they wanna hunt. Let them hunt.

Feed em fish leftovers deer etc

A good husky is well fed, and eats meat

Be prepared though, remember my badger thread?

When I say they hunt I really mean that. My older girl eats skunks. To them, if it moves its fair game. She even eats lampreys

Howah!???

My guess is the alpha was around.

Wolves get super aggressive at that time.

Just like chads dog would be proud to show a kill to him, thats hows the pack acts as well.

The wolves temperment totally changes, at least in my experience

Hahah awesome! Great fish and great pics?

Were you missing a marker????

Miigwich to John for making me make his own fishing thread ????

Trout looks AMAZING bud!!!

I would have had a hard time controlling my temper if that happened with my niece in the boat.. As for picking it up, you should have left it but I understand why you took it. Honest mistake, it happens.

^^^

Yeah, Im sure he got in a few strikes, Huskies are quite the fighters. I've seen him embarass a bull mastiff before!

 

How are the malamutes compared to siberians as far as character? They seem a little calmer but their size might come in handy around here.

Indeed get a malamute Chad. They are great hunters and super trainable, easy going dogs. They protect the property and family much more fearsly than a siberian.

My siberian will protect against animals but any stranger could walk right in and pet her.

Not my malamutes, they wait for an okay signal. If you walked in my house when im gone you better have a gun and good aim.

And for your property chad, two dogs are better than one.

Malamutes would have taken out the wolves no doubt in my mind.

Holy ...... thats a big trout!

Ughhh. Horrible.

So sorry for your loss

We have 3 huskies and they are amzing dogs! 2 are malamutes and one siberian.

Tough tough dogs and im sure he injured more than one

Big time bummer Chad

Lol

Nah man, grilled brussel sprouts are awesome!
