about
My name is Cordelia Moore, and I'm a twenty-one year old Air Force wife living in England. I pride myself on intellect and am interested in many subjects, including Theology, Mythology, Psychology, Philosophy, History, Geology, Culture, Geography, and Literature. I am employed with the base Arts and Crafts center, and love to express myself artisticly. Some of my favorite aesthetic mediums are photography, scrapbooking, painting, drawing, mould pouring, stain glass windows, writing, and web design. I am a cat person by nature, and have two little felines name Sage and Eris. I enjoy helping others, ask a question get a sincere answer.Why did I choose the username Nyx? Nyx is the ancient goddess of Night in Greek mythology, daughter of Chaos. She is a primal ancestress, and mother of many deities by Her brother Erebus (Darkness). Her children are for the most part dark sorts and include the Moerae (the three Fates), Nemesis (justice and divine retribution), winged Hypnos (Sleep) and His brother Thanatos (Death), Moros (Doom), the Keres, goddesses of violent death, Oizys (Misery), the Hesperides who guarded the golden apples, Deceit, Friendship, Old Age and Eris(Discord).
She was depicted as riding in a chariot, trailing stars and bringing the night, and accompaied by Her sons Hypnos and Thanatos. She could be helpful or harmful to mankind, bringing either sleep or death. Nyx had prophetic powers, and gave them to oracles from a cave. She was older and more powerful than Zeus, who deferred to Her wishes.

Im looking for a dog, and i dont like small dogs. My mom however, if like pretty afraid of big dogs, a neat freak, and cant stand dominent dogs. I really wanted a Lab or a Pit bull, but my mom says that labs are way too active for her, and pitbulls of course were always out of the question. I also really like huskies. i was wondering, do you know if they are like hyperactive and likely to jump on you like labs? i have a large back yard, and a big house.
THANX SO MUCH. i rate high.
Huskies are really beautiful dogs. I have always wanted one... however it might not be the kind of dog you want. Huskies are escape artists... and even the best cared for, best kenneled Husky may get loose, never to be seen again. They can crawl through microscopic holes, scale 8 foot fences with a ballerina's grace, break tie-out chains and slip collars so skillfully even Houdini would be amazed. Owners must build strong compounds and continually check for that tiny hole, loose fencing, or gleam in their dog's eye that says, "I know something you don't!" Remember: the term "escape proof" is not in the Huskies lexicon.
One glimpse into a Husky "crater" is enough to realize how efficient a hole digger the Husky is. Of course true to the Huskies nature, he will choose when and where to dig. This can present a problem for many homeowners. However, Huskies who do have a place to dig seem more content and less destructive. Huskies will dig and chew, outside or inside! If left to roam freely in the house, the dog can turn a neat orderly home into a housekeeper's nightmare.
However, on the plus side, they rarely bark... preffering to whine or moan. And given the proper training, they will obey simple commands and act quite respectable--most of the time. Also, they will alert their owner if there is danger present. Huskies are nomadic, and can easily adjust to new situations. However, a nomad at heart, the Husky has no fear of cars nor homing instincts compatible with our modern society, and once loose, he can easily fall prey to injury, disease, and hunger, or become a pest chasing and hunting small animals or digging in neighbors' yards. Husky owners quickly learn that, for the dog's sake, it must be confined or kept on lead at all times.
They are athletic, and need to be taken out on daily walks. They are affectionate, however they love to jump up and 'hug', so if there are small children present they could easily frighten them or knock them over.
While they are beautiful canines, I wouldn't recommend them as a house dog. And I don't think your mother would much appreciate it jumping up at her for affection(as they can get quite big). Pure breeds are also quite expensive(depending on the breed). Perhaps you should try your local animal shelter and help a dog in need out?
