Adopting a Husky
When it comes to choosing a pet dog, people always
seem to have a liking for husky puppies. This is mainly
due to the fact that they are by nature very active,
and that they are not aggressive at all. The husky puppy
is an ideal companion for you if you are looking for
a dog that is friendly and “caring” towards you. As
most huskies have good temperament, dog owners will
have a much easier time training their dogs. All of
the above reasons justify why husky puppies are such
popular choices among dog owners.
After reading the above paragraph, it might seem that
the husky puppy is a flawless breed of dogs. However,
this might not be the case. Adopting a husky puppy is
not as simple as it appears to be. Health related problems
will start to surface if they are not well taken care
of. You will encounter other problems such as preparing
the right diet for the your husky. Therefore, there
are 3 things you must know before adopting husky puppies.
Tip #1: General Health and Well-being
Husky puppies are very enthusiastic when they meet new
people. Therefore, the puppies should be very active
and lively when they see you. Some of the actions they
will do to welcome strangers will be actions such as
wagging their tails and barking softly. These puppies
will appear to be very approachable and therefore, you
should not have any fear of the puppies biting you.
However, if the husky puppies appears to be very lifeless
and looks aggressive towards you, you should have your
alarm raised. When husky puppies behave in such a way,
they are most probably suffering from some sort of dog-related
diseases. Therefore, it is advisable to share this behaviour
of the puppies with the pet shop owner and advise them
to bring the ill puppies to the vet. If the shop owner
insists on not doing so, you will need to source for
another place to get your husky puppy.
Tip #2: Health and diet
In order to ensure that the husky puppy that you bought
from the pet shop is healthy, you should consult a vet
for advice and do a full body check-up to see if there
is any disease that requires the vet’s attention. Another
thing to take note of is that you have to look thoroughly
through the dog’s fur and coating to ensure that the
dog does not have any spots. As for their daily meals,
it is recommended that for each meal, at least 65% of
it should be protein. However, it is hard to find any
dog food that contains protein rate that is as high
as 65%. For that reason, husky puppies owner prefer
to prepare their own food for their beloved dogs.
Tip #3: Temperament
Although husky puppies are gentle and have tolerating
tempers, people are misled into thinking that all huskies
are “safe” to be brought home. As such, what is true
of a group might not be true for an individual. This
applies to the scenario of husky puppies as well. Some
puppies can have very arrogant attitude and behaves
aggressively against strangers. Therefore, you should
have a so called “trial period” with the pet dog before
deciding to adopt that husky.
In conclusion, you should get to know the health, diet
and temperament of the husky before making any impulse
purchases. Most importantly, pay attention to the 3
things you must know before becoming adopting a husky
puppy.
