When your hotel says “mountain views” but it turns out to be The Home Depot logo 😅

Are you team pets on the furniture, or do you not let yours on the couch or bed?

What was your dog named after?

We didn’t name Will, he was originally a foster dog and was named by the family who had him and his siblings during his intake. The husband thought he looked exactly like the lead dog from the movie Iron Will. When we started fostering him, we were told we could change his name, and we tried out all the typical options - Blue, Arctic, Tundra, etc. Nothing seemed to suit him. Even once we officially adopted him, we kept his name as Will. We had never heard of the movie, and it wasn’t until years into Will joining our family, that we watched it for the first time.

We always assumed he was named after a dog named Will, but it turns out the lead dog’s name is Gus and he is named after the movie itself, which is named for lead human character, Will Stoneman. 😅

We couldn’t imagine Will being anything but a Will now - except for one of the various variations of him name that have become nicknames he’s earned over the years lol. We call him William, Will I Am, Willheim, Wilbur, Chilly W***y, Wilburdean, Wilem, Will-Will, Wilburdeer Rabbit, and more.

Sometimes, when I’m doing something with Will, I catch a glimpse of the dog who came before him. They might look completely different, but they both love the snow. Jax loved to catch snow balls in the air and run through the snow. He was always up for posing for photos. I went to snap a picture of Will standing on the snow pile, after throwing snow balls for him to chase, and it feel like I was reliving some of my favourite memories with Jax. It makes me even more sure that Jax chose Will and sent him here to me 🥺💕

Who else is mad they aren’t making the orange cream flavor anymore ?!
I’m not a big soda drinker but really enjoy the Coke Zero version.

People might think it looks like they’re playing too rough, but I guarantee this is what’s going on in their heads when they’re playing like this 😂 These two are just two peas in a pod and love a good wrestle in the yard!

Our GSP Charlie is far more vocal(and dramatic) than our Husky, Will. He has really big feelings and will often whine, howl or bark to let you know. Will is a much more soft spoken, but will join in when Charlie gets going with a good howl!

Will has slowly been discovering his voice, but he’s still not very vocal for a Husky. This was one of the first times he ever howled, and it made my heart so happy. I think his howl is the cutest thing(maybe because I don’t hear it much? 😂). Our GSP is actually more vocal than he is. Does your dog howl?
