Question everyone? I'm looking to go to the beach with tala, and was wondering when she would be able to go in the water again? Thanks p.s she's doing great 
Boy, that's the million dollar question. Every dog is so different. Start slow and take fresh water with you. Don't expect more than 15 minutes and don't let her over-exert herself. Walking in sand is hard work. She'll get there though! Take some pics, we'd love to see them.
Glad she's doing well!

Hi! Welcome to the group! And welcome to husky parenting! Sorry I'm so slow to get to this. You can usually find me in chat most nights, but I don't check the forums as frequently. A few members mentioned that I've got a crazy husky girl. They are all used to my stories of her antics.
Adelaide was 2 months old when she fell off a patio (from what I was told) and broke her front left leg. Amputation was recommended and she underwent that surgery at 5 months old. She is now 2 years old - she's been with me for a little over a year. Feel free to check out her blog, Jerry posted that earlier. Her stories are usually good for a chuckle.
Glad to hear her surgery went well. She should do great. Here is a video of Addy running around if you need any reassuring.
Just shout out if you have any questions. There are a ton of wonderful folks in here with great support.
Karma, Adelaide and the crew, and our forever angel Brendol
Adelaide is a young tripawd Husky, from an injury. Her amp was on 10/1/12. She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera. We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.
