We have a new member of our family! Her name is Cheyenne! She’s about 14 months old, weighs about 45 lbs. and has one brown and one blue eye. We drove all the way down to Bakersfield to adopt her yesterday…about an 8 hour drive one way…and drove back that same day.

Here’s a few pics of her:

Yes, she’s a Siberian Husky! Isn’t she beautiful? I just adore her! She’s great with the boys and is doing ok with the birds…we just keep them gated in another part of the house. The rabbit we’re keeping in a bedroom for now. The birds don’t seem to mind Cheyenne, but I know the rabbit would just about have a heart attack.
Being brought up in southern California, Cheyenne had her first romp through the snow up here in Northern California. She loves it! The cold doesn’t seem to bother her…though we don’t leave her out in it for too long, since she isn’t used to it.
Known for being good jumpers, Siberian Huskies are suppsed to be leashed or on a line at all times. We have an areal dog line running the length of the backyard with an 8 foot leash. Gives her plenty of room, but deters her from any escape artist acts when no one’s around to watch her.
Anyway, she’s an adorable and fun addition to our family.
