Appearance
Once she is completely grown, this young female will stand at 25 inches to the shoulder and weigh in around 83 pounds. She has a muscular, athletic physique, obviously built to pull sleds and do so with both endurance and strength. Her long legs and large paws promise good grip and surefootedness across the often slick or difficult terrain. She has long, easy lopes for strides, and it doesn't take her long to get where she's going.
Skadi's most prominent, defining characteristic is her coat color. She has lovely red husky markings on a snow white coat with very slight cream tones to it. Her russet coloration grows to a darker auburn along her dorsal line running from the bridge of her nose, across her head and back, and down the top side of her tail. Her coat is thick and soft, though the fur itself isn't as long as some dogs'. Rather, hers is of a more moderate length, causing her to look extra fluffy without the fur weighing itself down into a typical malamute's longer, downward strokes.
Her nose is a light liver color with darker liver patches prominently displayed on either side of her nostrils and towards the bottom of the middle crease, emphasizing the dividing line. Her gums match perfectly and are home to a set of long, white teeth. Skadi's eyes are a soft, dark amber and rimmed with dark lashes and skin. She is, all things considered, a very aesthetically pleasing dog to look at.
Personality
She may look sweet and innocent, but Skadi is much more than a surface level sweetheart. She is calculating, independent, a little feisty, and occasionally flirtatious. Whether or not Skadi is serious when she is flirting is hard to tell; actually, sometimes it's unclear if she's flirting in the first place or just joking around. Or is she being serious?
She's quite mature for her age, outside of the occasional comment to the opposite sex and a potty humor joke here or there. When she doesn't know what to do, or if she doesn't know the solution to a problem or question, she looks to her elders. If they don't know, either, then she brainstorms. It's quite simple, to her. Logical. She is creative, but her mind works around logic. If she cannot make sense of something, she becomes easily frustrated and will be stormy for at least the rest of the day, or longer, depending on how big of a deal it seems to her.
Skadi is goal-oriented and rather ambitious, though not always in the way of dominance. She pushes herself constantly, sometimes going too far, though she is getting better at knowing her limits. Still, they will be tested. Skadi is a smart dog, and she has a tactical outlook on life. Everything she sees, she thinks of how she can use to her advantage. Her puppy mind is constantly thinking up random scenarios, almost like daydreams, in which she plots her moves. Of course, very few will likely ever happen.
She can be quite snarky and gets defensive easily. With her strength, despite her age, she can put up a fair fight, even against an adult. Will she win? Absolutely not. Will they regret ever running into her? Definitely. When in any fight, Skadi tends to do as much damage as she possibly can, no matter the outcome. Of course, this is only when she feels threatened or is otherwise offended. She won't go around looking to pick fights; actually, she much prefers to be by herself.
Thoughts on What's Going On?
All she knows for sure is that she has been abandoned. One minute she was warm and fed, and the next she was being broomed away from her home and locked out. She doesn't know what to do, now.
