We know that our 9 yo husky is fairly strange in an amiable always hungry sort of way, but this is a surprise to us. This week the temperature here has got to about 40c and now is down to about 28 to 30c, and we decided to follow an idea on a husky Facebook page and freeze bags of water with slices of apple in them. Lobo adores apples and so we tried it. The sight of him licking and chasing a half-pint ice cube round the back yard, and eating the lot in about 5 minutes has made our week. Any one else have a dog that likes ice cubes with or without apples? He won't chase a ball or even look at it, but he will chase an apple and eat it, we discovered also this week.

We have a Siberian husky, who is a lovely dog/part wolf but isn’t really quite like other dogs I have had in my life. He has various habits that could drive me nuts if I wasn’t so relaxed, but one thing he does has me mystified. He has done it since we have had him, which is 3 1/2 years now, and he is 10 1/2. He will be walking along a road or path in the woods that he has often been along before, and at a point that he decides, and with no obvious reason, he will just stop, yawn, and refuse to go any further. He did it just now, out walking along what used to be a railway line, fields and woods all round, and after a mere 200 mètres walk from the car, he just stopped, yawned and turned round. We know from experience that there is no point in trying to get him to change his mind: if one tries to get him to do something he doesn’t want to do, he will lie down and refuse to move until we decide to go where he wants to go. He has in the past laid down in the square here, all of 50 metres from our front door, and refused to move, causing me to drag him along on his side, to the vast amusement of all the witnesses around us. Huskies are well known for being stubborn, but I would love to know why he just takes against a previously popular walk.
