eeneR 3 #26 June 30, 2006 QuoteQuoteHe also keeps putting his mouth around my arm, lol.don't let him do that... its a dominance behavior... good luck with the training... I believe I remember reading once that huskies can be a challenge... Scott is right....Huskis though very wonderful dogs require a TON of discipline. You must keep them in their place. In addition, they will run, jump do what ever to get where ever they want. I congradulate you on the wonderful decision of rescuing a dog. I too have a husky that I rescued. He had a history of jumping fences, I thought I had it nipped, but that didnt last long, he needs to be on a leash at all times when not in a house or a fenced area with a fence 6' or taller. If this guy was infact hit by a car he was probably running. He is a very native animal, he requires pack order ect...She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
windcatcher 0 #27 June 30, 2006 Quote Sarah I am happy that you and chad are rescue parents. I know that Christina and I would not have a dog any other way. congrats to you both and to the dog for now having a good home. natasha said that she looks fwd to playing with yukon sometime soon. Joe I laughed when I read the part about Natasha playing with Yukon. In response to the other posts: *I wanted a dog like Yukon, I enjoy exercise and FULLY expect him to workout with me once he is fully healed. *Also, Chad and I have brushed a few small dog-fulls of hair already; I think brushing him will help minimize the shedding all over. *Yukon is definitely a husky from what ya'll have been saying about them---he's an ATTENTION WHORE! I just bought him another rawhide bone that last him 3 days! I am going to do some research on training dogs. Thank you everyone for the kind words. ( wow that sounded very ADD-ish. Oh well) Mother to the cutest little thing in the world... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
