Issue I had with adoption agencies is that I never had a pet before and so they weren't too keen on giving me one. 

HRWA are not like that, they just want to ensure you know what you are getting into, Huskys are a unique breed and are extremely active

Malamutes are just huskies on steroids.  all my animals are sleeping because they live happy relaxing lifestyles. my dog gets two 8km walks a day.

 

Oh, and yeah, adopt one. there's so many out there.

Yea ok I'll have a look. House doesn't have an alfresco area. Ideally I'm hoping to get that up at least for work out door shade area for the dog.



Have a chat with Anne, as long as you know what your getting into you will be fine, they charge $400 for costs of desexing, microchips and worming etc

I don't have a very large house, in fact it is quite small. To make up for this, I take my dog for long walks and play with him at the park, which is perfectly fine. We'll play tug of war in the yard and sometimes we wrestle, he's 55kg...decent opponent.

No wonder your knees are shot 16km per day plus walking around at work [emoji15][emoji15]

So about that, I have some sort of Chondral Fissuring of both knees. Essentially, the Cartilage for both knees has deep cracks and fissures through it, some of it has also started peeling off of the bone, and there a small, loose bits of cartilage floating around the knee too.

Theres no surgical options, supposedly (Rheumatologist tells me that, so does my GP and Physio), so the best Cure is to Grind back the Cartilage with low-impact leg exercises. 
I had to buy a particular Exercise bike, that has a heavy flywheel (7kg), set the resistance up, so it's like pushing a weight, a slowly do that for 30 minutes a day. This not only builds muscle, but grinds back all my broken cartilage, and hopefully creates a new groove for my knee caps to sit in. Unfortunately it's a long, slow, painful process, slowly improving every week.

 

Option B is to take Anti inflammatory pills for the rest of my life, with monthly (expensive) Steroid Injections and fillers (with the risk of infection from each one).

Fux man that's really not good, hope
You do get better sooner rather than later!

    • Hopefully you can just unbolt them, thank them for their service, then bin them and not replace them Apparently the sensors like to set them off with only minor impacts at low speed It looks like they do a delete kit for some of these, but, it is costly 
    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain.
