    Yeah I'm looking at a terrier mix of some sort (ideally). About 25 lbs max.

    My husky was the greatest dog I could ever imagine sharing life with... but 85 pounds of nordic shedding was brutal to deal with.

    I'm still finding his fur in places:

    1. Garment bags in my closet (he never once stepped foot in my closet).

    2. Inside my tailgate. Yes, if you remove the access panel there is still a bunch of his hair in there.

    3. The best... when I did the sound deadening and audio project on my truck, I removed the inner door panels, removed the plastic moisture barrier and when applying deadening material in between the two door skins, I noticed a matrix of mud/dirt and Wiley's dog hair at the pinch weld - in between the two door skins.

    But the best ever was when I'd brush him out in my backyard. He hated it... it sounded like he got caught in a snare trap. But there'd be a 1/4 acre of his dog fur strewn about the back yard. I'd just leave it and watch. Within a day it was like a Disney movie with all the birds and squirrels grabbing the fur for their nests.

    It's funny how the things that annoy us the most about our pets become the things we remember the most fondly when their gone. RIP Wiley & Gixxer. I'm sure they're playing together wherever they are...

    Hey everyone. I lifted my truck a week ago and have been seeing some front vibes. Thinking I need the ECGS bushing. I'm a little weary installing it myself, as I've just never done CV/Diff related stuff before.

    Any suggestions on shops I should hit up to install it? Anyone interested in helping me do it? I pay in cash/beer/food.

    Yeah from what I've gathered it's not the end of the world to leave it, but i hate the vibrations at take off. Just knowing something isn't 100% right makes my OCD go crazy.

    Hahahaha yes. Low rent, more money for toys
    The job situation here is pretty good for me (for now) but Denver is just a more fun place and has more opprotunity.

    Knowing you and you personality, come to Denver you will enjoy it here. Heck I just got an email today from a little known "job circle" site and they are looking for all accountants or controller. Isn't that your major?

    The oddest/strangest place I found a husky hair was the 3rd week of USN basic training in Orlando, FL. I noticed it laying on top of my oatmeal just before pouring the milk on it. By that point I had considered husky fur a regular addition to my food, so I nearly missed it until I remembered she was 2,000 miles to the NW.
