Andy Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Ok well, welcome to the Forum. Luna is very beautiful. So glad you've found us. Huskies are very different from most other breeds of dog. They do "strange" things, that are normal for Huskies but not for other dogs. Ask all the questions you want, we want you to love and enjoy your new furry friend.

Rosemary Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hi and welcome to the forum - Luna is lovely Has she tried digging in the water bowl yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toanjuice Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 thankyou to all lol yh im going to have hell, hopefully when i go biking, it would be enough exercise for her lol lol oh god when is she going to be digging in the water bowl? biggest problem im having is cleaning up her mess she knows she shouldnt pee/poo where there isnt newspaper ( as she goes crawling under my bed in fear of being reprimanded lol) i think she just cant hold it in, is that right?

Staceybob Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 How have you been scolding her? Seems a bit extreme for her to go hiding under the bed. Welcome to the pack!! Having no garden isn't a massive problem as long as you exercise your dog well. Our garden is not enclosed, so Aleu can not go out off lead. She does have a kennel now though, but generally it's more important to give good exercise. If you're interested in biking, I would recommend buying the Walkydog bike attachment as it is a safer way to bike with your dog, but you've got a long while before you can do that kind of exercise with them.

storm-boi Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 ??? she shouldnt be hiding under the bed in fear how do you tell her off?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
art1972@sky.com Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 as for the biking - she needs to be around 12 months old before you take her out running with you on the bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toanjuice Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 i dnt know if its me or the breeders but the first time she pees, i yelled " luna no!!" and she just ran under the bed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
art1972@sky.com Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Talk to her calmly - you'll get a much better response, she needs to learn to trust you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm-boi Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 sounds like she could have a hard time with the breeders then if thats all you have said to her as that shouldnt scare her?? poor baby she will get there just be patient Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BingBlaze n Skyla Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 bless her i gave mine a firm no and put them where i wanted them to go, never yell at them - it wont help my girl loves digging in her water bowl - my male doesnt tho - so ur girl might not also like its already been said dont over exercise her as shes so young and she shouldnt go out on a bike till she is ATLEAST a year old - and even then she shouldnt go for too long as she is still growing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hi and welcome to the pack Expect this behaviour all her life - but even more so whist she's learning the basics - she has such a tiny bladder at the moment so will need to toilet every few hours - including after eating / drinking and playing. When training - best way i've found is to praise the good and ignore the bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AttilaVikingsDemon Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Welcome! What a little cutie! Husky's seem to be a handful, but they are worth it-they grow to be wonderful dogs! People on here have given me advice and its worked, just be patient with your pup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherZeman Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Welcome! Luna is gorgeous! This is a great thread that may give you some direction and help with your training: Training your husky According to your Rules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tams Teeko and Keeta Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 lol yeah im trying my best to hold out... she is very disobedient though, i dnt know how u all do it... She's just a baby, give her time. Welcome! Good luck with your beautiful pup. You'll find this site so useful and dangerously addictive! If you haven't done so already, get reading! The more you can learn about this breed the better! I know a decent amount about dogs but I have had to do alot of learning for our husky. Completely unique. As for the under the bed....our pup goes under the table when he knows he has done something he shouldn't and he never gets scolded or yelled at and never has been. When he messed in the kitchen, we would just tut and say yuck. The worst thing he did was rip our lino...i wasn't there so could only shake my head and clear up yet he still went under the table. We always know when he has done something he shouldnt if we come home and he is under the table giving us a guilty look. He goes there when he is tired or too hot too! So, don't panic if you know yourself that you aren't scolding her .... It may just be her way. With the toilet training....you'll soon learn to get over excited about an outdoor poo or wee! Just ignore the indoor accidents ....it takes time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
