Rita's mom, you confused me there for a minute. You were talking about Rita, then mentioned Husky. I have a canine one curled up under my feet right now, so for a minute, it didn't compute. BTW, my Husky mix isn't husky. She is very muscular, but slim and small waisted. My Border Collie/Lab is a little cutie. Very slim, too, but so furry it's hard to tell.
My previous dog was ACD/Aussie. Very ACD in behavior. Such a fun dog!
