My older sister is observant. Having a dog and what I need for trips to and from the city don’t mesh well together (my cooler barely fits in the trunk). If I could only track down a manual Alltrack, with VW’s current financing rate, I don’t think I’d miss it much more than the Subaru. $200 a month difference with what I can put down right now, and this would be enough car for me, I think.
Separation anxiety dog tax.

Why is the dog in jail and why does it look like you tried to put your boot through the bars?

You need a solid bottom on that crate . That husky is gonna literally dig through the crate and destroy the floor. My coworker has a husky mix pupper and the damage is legendary.

I put her in her crate since I had to go out.
She tried to pull it open.

There was a solid tray that she managed to remove.

I love that green.
And that’s some good bending Sam!

Subscribed.
Just walk in the house with your camera ready to capture the carnage. I’m with Zoidberg on this one.

I don’t mean that crappy plastic tra y. I mean 3/4" plywood. Plexiglass. Granite. Bomb shelter.

I’m looking at hard plastic crates now.

In other words it needs to go dig in a snowbank and do Husky things outside.

You make good points.
To the hardware store in the work truck I go!

It’ll get better. I think we turned our biggest corner when I ditched the crate entirely. Sure, I still lose rolls of paper towels and my wife's occasional misplaced makeup items, but she's not couped up all day and miserable and scared. Our crate training was a disaster largely because this is my first dog and I have no idea what I'm doing. In my defense, she's a high-energy, reactive dog that still needs lots of whatever I gave up.

I totally get it. She’s also a reserve dog, so crates are not something she likes. I picked up a clock radio for her to listen to. She had no problems last night with me sleeping beside her, she just doesn’t like being alone.

Seems like a good option for you. It’s a MANUAL wagon. Yes haldex is inferior to Subaru’s symmetrical AWD, but considering how well you've done with a FiST, you'll do fine. Plus still 60+ cubic feet of cargo with the seats down, 30 with the seats up. There are crossovers that don't even touch this numbers.

My dog sleeps in our bedroom, which we didn’t do for the first year or more. As my wife says , “she wants to be with her pack.”

I just wish the nearest colourful one wasn’t in... Quebec.

Huskies and separation anxiety is no joke. When I first brought Sasha home, she would just sit at the door (or in her crate) and howl every time I left, and more or less continue to do so until I got home. At the time, I was working 12 hour shifts, and my roommate was...unhappy about it.

This is rush he is a good boy unless he gets separated from us and gets worried. Then he howels like he’s going to die and chews everything in his grasp, and he’s really tall.

Find a used forester with a manual. Same 2.5 as the outback/legacy. Didn’t think they killed off the manual on the new foresters.

They sure did, unfortunately.

I swear I wondered this morning, with how crazy it is with coronavirus (my county schools are closed until April 10th), that i bet I could walk into a dealership and get a killer deal at the end of the month

Just get a new Bronco. It's what you want.
