So it is Mesha not Meeska

OOPS!  I have been corrected......my son's husky is called, "Mesha".  Somehow, I saw a "k" where there was none.  As you recall, we were planning on bringing Mesha home Saturday.  Well, she did so well at the vet's on Friday (being spayed) that they called to let my son know he could pick her up by 2pm.  Sam and I quickly made a trip to the pet store to buy a few doggie supplies.  Then he borrowed our x-pen and set it up in the house.  We have no idea if Mesha is housebroke and no idea if she still has that puppy tendency to chew!  Plus we thought a more confined space might make her feel a little more comfortable until she adapts to her new surroundings.  Unfortunately, my son had to go into work at 4pm.  So...it was Grandmama Debbie to the rescue.  Mesha was pretty out of it, but did seem to enjoy the security of the x-pen.  We never actually "shut the door", but she seemed quite content to lay on the pad we made for her there.  We never had that first accident....so I think she had been house broke by the previous owners.  She did have trouble keeping anything down, but I was not surprised by that.....she has been through so much these last few days.  My son was home by 10pm and took over her care.  They both had a good night and in the morning she was defiantly looking and feeling better.
Here you can see how thin she is....look at those ribs....but still a beautiful dog!
And it didn't take her long to make herself at home here on the couch....LOL!  Look at that sweet face....so loving and such a good girl.  I hope she knows that she is finally home!  Sam made her some scramble egg for breakfast.....it took her awhile, but she finally did eat.  I think she is going to be an amazing dog and give my son years of enjoyment and love!  Of course.....you know that sweet face will find it's way to my easel.....LOL!

  2. She is gorgeous. And when she fills out a little will be even more so. That face had better end up on your easel. You can just see she has lots of love to give when she learns to trust a little bit.

  5. Oh my I can see why you couldn't walk away from her. She's Beautiful. How could someone treat her so bad that she's so thin. What a crime. Well now she has her forever home and will get lots of love and food.
    Good for you guys to rescue her.

  7. What a lovely young lady. Thank you so much for giving her a second chance. I believe they know when they have been rescued and are forever grateful. So sad to see her so thin but I bet you'll fatten her up in no time.

  9. What a beautiful face!!! She certainly looks like she's right at home on that couch. Looks like Sam has a new found friend and you are now "furbaby grandma". Wishing him well with training.
