He bit the dog? ! ? ! ! ?aardvark wrote:I've got a mate who has a dog that bit his son when the son was little. He bit the shit out of the dog and the dog never bit the kid again.
In fact, if the kid and the dog are playing and the dog starts to get a bit boisterous, the kid just starts whimpering and the dog lies down.
bit = past tense of 'bite'

Hello TMO 82...on a serious note here..............
I have a Bluey and she was a nasty piece of work when she was a pup.
She only attacked my clothes on the line and dug the backyard up ALL THE TIME. Ate anything and everything including a Carton of VB and digested it.
Dogs are like children when they are pups. They don't know they are doing the wrong thing unless they are caught. Then it must be IMMEDIATELY acted on. Do not smack their snout though it damages the nerve endings in the nose.
We eventually got Bark busters involved.
You need a really strong small word like OFF the dog needs to know YOU are the leader of the pack not it. You use this word and no others, as it confuses the dog when you use to many words ( Bart simpsons dog blah blag blah Blah). Stand up to the dog with this word. Not a swear word or the dogs name please thrust me it doesnt work lol.
The other thing they gave me was a disk chain.
Get some large metal washers Approx 10 on a metal chain, so that when you slam it on the ground it makes a very loud noise. This scares and distracts the dog from what it was thinking and doing. Also move the dog to the spot and firmly say the word. The next time the dog goes near the area, yell out the word. scares the shyte outta the dog.
It takes a few weeks, but if you continually do this eventually your problem stops.
Everyone in the household should use this word also.
ONE WORD very firmly spoken to the dog and don't forget bud,
IT IS A PUP, if you don't correct the behaviour it will always be there and then you'll never be able to fix it.
Oh yeah...Buy a Kong and fill it with Peanut butter. Leave it in the yard. They play and eat and distract them from nasty distructive behaviour.

We've got a male Sibe called Koda, when we first got him nearly 2 years ago now, within the first 12 months he was up for sale about 4 times, absolute nightmare!,stick with her with the training, these dogs are notoriously headstrong with a great will to do what they want 
Now we wouldn't be without Koda, he doesn't destroy stuff and has stopped rearranging the yard and he is soooo loving, just wants to be with you and in actual contact, he is growing to be one of the most interesting dogs we've owned.
Great personallity, specially in the morning when they come in and start "talking"(wrhooo wrhoooo wrhoo whroo) for their breakfast, it's excellent, stick with her mate, it'll be worth it
We are actually on the look out for another one to keep Koda company so if anyone knows of someone who has had enough of their snowdog give us a shout......
As a final word..........ya gonna love it when she starts loosing her coat

She has heaps of toys and gets plenty of attention so i don't think that she is bored,please help me people how do i stop her.
Put a nugget of dog poo in the hole and cover it. At least they won't wreck your filled in holes!
Yes that is a willfull and energetic breed of dog you have there, if you get it a mate buy yourself a sled so they can tow you around!

If anyone wants a husky try the husky rescue people, my friend got her 2nd sibe from them.
My background involved dog training for about 15 years. Huskies and malamutes are working dogs, they need at least 1/2 hour walking every day. Your dog is not jealous, it is establishing itself within its pack, ie, she thinks she is next after you. Her place is at the bottom, after any people. These breeds have very strong personalities and can easily become nippy at best and downright nasty at worst if not trained correctly.

Hey TM, Hate to tell you this, but Siberian Huskys, Alaskan Malamutes, Keeshonds and a few others all fall into the category of "spitz" dogs, or "snow" dogs to the layperson.
They all have double coats, and plenty of them and this is both their heating system for winter and their cooling system for summer - that's why you can't shave them in the summer - you'd be doing more harm than good.
Often these dogs will dig holes in the ground, not because they're being naughty, but because they're instinctively creating a warm or cool spot in the extremes of the heat/cool to assist with the fur system. If Lucy's not laying in the holes she digs though, I'd suggest she's just bein naughty.
Someone else suggested burying some chicken wire under the grass, although I wouldn't recommend electrifying it. The feel of their claws touching it when they dig will probably be enough to put them off.
All else I can suggest is make sure there is a cool spot for her in the summer and a warm spot in the winter, to save her having to make one herself.
If you need any grooming tips for when she starts shedding, get a "rake". Looks exactly like the garden type, but much smaller, and pulls out the undercoat really easily. Mind you, it'll fly everywhere, so make sure you've got the vacuum handy if you're doing it inside. I also use a regular wire hairbrush to get the job started. Untangle it first before you use the rake.
Wow, I really got on a roll there ay....
