Tips for Husky Owners
If you are looking for a dog breed that has a gentle
and playful nature, and has an amazing appearance, you
are looking for the Siberian Huskies. There weather
proof double coat and extreme stamina will simply amaze
you. This article is going to give you some tips to
owning Siberian Huskies.
The first thing you should do when you get a husky is
to make sure your yard is securely fenced. Huskies are
great jumpers and they love to dig, so make sure that
you make the fence high and the foundations deep. Without
these precautions you run the risk of your new dog running
way.
You will need to invest a lot of time and patience into
training these dogs. The Siberian Huskies are extremely
intelligent dogs but they do not always do things to
please their owner, they need to see a reason for doing
it. If you put the time into training them though they
will begin to do what you want.
Make sure that you keep them on a leash at all times
when in an open area. Huskies enjoy running, no matter
where they are running to, or away from. If you take
a husky off its leash and it runs away you could never
see it again because it will run without knowing you
are not keeping up.
You need to make sure that you allow the husky to get
plenty of exercise. If you are unable to give the dog
the exercise that it needs you should consider buying
a companion dog that will be able to play with the husky.
If you are looking for a guard dog, this is not the
dog for you. Huskies are affectionate by nature, and
they are loveable, not only to you, but to strangers.
If a stranger were to break into your house they would
probably be able to walk straight up to the dog and
the dog would lick them. So, find a different breed
of dog if you are looking for a watchdog.
If you want a dog that is low maintenance and does not
require much time being brushed, the Siberian Huskies
are the dog for you. You will rarely have to brush them,
but about twice a year they will begin to shed pretty
badly and during that time you will need to brush them
a lot.
Owning Siberian Huskies is a great move if you want
a loveable dog. They are not the type of dog you should
buy for a watchdog, but with the right amount of training
you will have a low maintenance dog that is extremely
nice.
