Just bought a male husky puppy. Any tips on how to raise them? I already have a Rottweiler and Caucasian Sheperd, they are well trained guard dogs. I have a big yard with plenty of space too

If it goes over 85 keep him indoors. Plenty of shade and water for him. Watch out for seizures. Also, they're runners and WILL run away forever.
It will be an outside dog but there is a lot of shade and ponds for the ducks and geese we keep so he will be able to cool down
You’re fricked huskies are not slavish dogs. Humans are not part of their dominance hierarchy and all nonhusky dogs are at the bottom.
The husky personality is closer to a wolf while their intelligence is closer to a german shepherd. They are not dogs for dog people and training cats would better prepare you for this.
Damn...
Tell me it isn't so, bros...
Husky people and dog people are two different things
Husky people also like pet dingos
Food aggressive little shits, won't be surprised your other dogs won't put up with Shitsky nonsense
bad choice, return it and get another shep or rottie
Watch out where it go and don't you eat the yellow snow
keep it outside in the winter and shave it in the summer if you don't live close to the arctic circle
>shave it in the summer
wtf no
Your dog is going to die of heat stroke. The husky breed is best adapted for the cold climate.
Huskies shed their entire undercoat for summer so they’re fine walking mornings and afternoons. Do you leave your dog outside all day?
They shed their undercoat, BUT you need to brush or blow dry their undercoat shedding. They do hate the heat and will suffer if left in the sun without shade significantly faster than other dogs. Shaving is viable, but only as a last resort as their skin isn't meant to be exposed.
That’s why they don’t go outside for long periods in the day. They even instinctively dig dens to escape it. Are you leaving your dogs outside all day?
nah. I am not OP just a pet groomer.
Pet groomers are some of the dumbest people on earth.
>manhandles your dog
>chokes them
>blasts them with high pressure water
>why are they so loud and stubborn? a well adjusted dog should just accept being treated like a piece of actual shit by a strange person.
>husky getting a bath at home: basically a massage in the bathtub, very happy dog
I have a husky and they do NOT need shaved or haircuts (except the fur on their paws or they slide on hardwoods)
If it's hot they need a cool place to hide out and you need to learn to be a morning and evening person. Just like normal animals, they're not very active midday even after they lose 75% of their fur. How do you think coyotes survive?
Huskies aren't outside dogs unless you want lots of dead ducks and geese. And rabbits. And cats. And the other dogs might follow them leading to dead cows and horses. They're a primitive hunting breed, meaning they have the whole set of predation instincts not some mutated partial set so they can fit into some scottish noblemans hunter larp. They will share the food with you but they're not a dog to set on the quarry and recall, they work on their own and could easily survive without you in a world without guns and cars.
The original purpose of the breed was to hunt. The sledding part is for bringing the dead animals back home.
I make extensive use of my dog's hunting instincts but if you don't even have any pest control to do you shouldn't have one
You should give the puppy back unless you consider these ducks and geese pest animals. There's only a small chance the husky won't kill them with extensive training.
your dog
them
them with high pressure water
>>why are they so loud and stubborn? a well adjusted dog should just accept being treated like a piece of actual shit by a strange person.
You should probably stop going to groomers at big pet stores. I have never done any of that. Some people get old, have health problems, etc and need someone to get their dogs shedding undercoat out.
>How do you think coyotes survive?
Are you really comparing husky care to wild coyotes surviving in the wild? I feel bad for your husky if that's your frame of reference,
yeah no, my last husky was put down at age 8 after cancer took up about 60% of his lungs
DO NOT shave a double coated dog. It will permanently damage their coat.
Not shave, but you have to give it a haircut.
