Husky That Bite - Training For a Better Relationship

Huskies are not known to be agressive dogs in most cases but minor nipping and biting can be problematic. You see, as puppies, they have a need to discover and explore the surroundings and since they have no hands, only option is to chew through things. Think of them as babies who grab at everything in sight to feel the texture and material, because that is exactly what the little husky pup is trying to do.


All creatures have some sort of defense mechanism. Husky dogs have three ways of dealing with an aggressor: fight, flight, or avoidance. It is our responsibility to teach them in ways they can understand.  The trainer will show the dog that in certain situations a person is a threat and can be dealt with using the skills taught in prey drive. In this way, prey drive and defense drive work together. In essence, the husky is taught that when given a command that the aggressor is a real threat and he should use his skills to fight the threat.  This is because your attitude, patience and effort towards dog training for obedience are so critical to the husky training success.


Little pups are known to bite and nip at each other when they play and whenever one pup bites a bit too hard the other puppy stops playing or yelps which is how they learn that biting too hard is not a good thing. If your puppy is biting, put him on time out. It will be like saying, no I don't want to play with you anymore. With proper husky training you should get rid of this problem in no time.


Another very important free dog training tip is to make sure everyone in your home acts consistently whenever you are training your dog. It is very important that you make sure that everyone in the house knows what you are doing during the dog training, and how to provide supportive measures whenever needed.


When it comes to dealing with serious bites that come from agression,then you better get in touch with a profesional dog trainer. An inexperienced dog owner can worsen the problem so don't be ashmed to seek some extra help.
