This page is dedicated to our second Siberian Husky.  He seemed to complete the introduction to this wonderful breed.  We will forever be thankful for that and for how he enriched our lives in so many ways.  He is gone now, over the Rainbow Bridge to play and romp forever as he waits for us.  But, he will never be forgotten nor out of our hearts.  We present to you Spunky.

Spunky was Siberian Husky number 2 for us and he joined the family about 5 1/2 months after Kodi.  They quickly became best buddies.  Spunky, too, became an Obedience Siberian after that very same Vermont incident mentioned in Kodi's story.

Obedience

Spunky's first-ever qualifying score was in his first obedience trial.  It was a 194 1/2 for High In Trial at the 1988 Garden State Siberian Husky Club Specialty Show.  He earned his CD in his next two shows over 4 weeks.  Open was a different story and Spunky finally got his CDX after about a year and a half of competing.  He also earned his Canadian CD, although that took two weekends.  Spunky earned his Canine Good Citizen certificate at the 1992 SHCA National Specialty.  At this same SHCA National Specialty, Spunky was a member of the winning team in the Team Obedience competition.
