Vocalizing.

This is a really common trait in huskies and a few other dog breeds.

Huskies are incredibly intelligent dogs and rather than simply barking at you, they will try and โ€œtalkโ€ to you to tell you something is amiss.

MyHappyHusky.com puts it quite plainly:

โ€œThis is a direct way of gaining your attention and letting you know that they want something. Dogโ€™s are more simple than us, your husky wonโ€™t be gossiping about what happened at the coffee shop the other dayโ€ฆTheyโ€™ll be telling you that they need to go potty! or that itโ€™s 5 minutes past mealtime!

โ€œThe list can be endless, but 90% of the time, your husky will be trying to tell you something specific. Itโ€™s normal to have no idea what theyโ€™re trying to say, but usually, the situation, time of day and events leading up to the talking can often give you an idea of what theyโ€™re asking for.โ€

A lot of the instagram posts from Zeus are about his vocalizations!

Zeusโ€™ mom is definitely sassy with him and their relationship is pretty adorable to say the least.

Sheโ€™s sarcastic and snarky with him and letting him know what a cry baby heโ€™s being!

She eventually gets him to get out of his bowl so that she can clean and fill it.

But that doesnโ€™t stop Zeus from continuing to complain!

He even watches with great anticipation as sheโ€™s cleaning out the bowl and filling it, and they continue to have their own owner/pet conversation of a sort!

Even Kaden, the german shepherd, is looking at Zeus like โ€œdude, what are you doing?โ€

Itโ€™s only when Zeusโ€™ mom puts the water bowl back down in front of him that he finally stops his whining! Itโ€™s so odd and adorable in its own way.

Zeus is clearly very happy to be able to lap up some nice cold water again!

You probably noticed that Zeusโ€™ eyes are two different colors! This is called heterochromia, and is a trait found in a lot of huskies and other dog breeds as well, including Australian Shepherds, Dalmatians, and even Chihuahuas!

โ€œThe color of the iris is determined by the presence of pigment, also known as melanin [โ€ฆ] The iris in most dogs and cats has high amounts of melanocytes that give it the normal dark to golden-brown color. Pets with blue eyes have a genetic mutation in the genes that is responsible for regulating the concentration and distribution of melanin. This results in the absence of melanocytes in the iris, giving them blue eyes.โ€ -Dr. Doug Payne, medical director at VCA East Penn Animal Hospital in Pen Argyl, Pennsylvania

Heterochromia isnโ€™t always inhereted in genes, it can happen over a dogโ€™s life because of injuries, sickness or even just medications sometimes!

For Zeus, it gives him a really unique look, and heโ€™s very pretty because of it!
