Can A Husky Be Trained To At Least Leave Smaller Animals Alone If I Pay For Them To Be Trained

I leave my husky puppy alone for about 12 hours every day. Could this affect her health?

Of course it is too long among the many reasons why are a few standouts:Huskies are high energy dogs bred to run long distances After 6 hours dogs need to relieve themselves and take a stretch, mine don't like more than four, but this is often unreasonable. Huskies are very social dogs very loyal to their owner and will have anxiety without your or another friendly human presence  Separation anxiety is why your Husky is destroying your stuff and furniture while you are away. (Unless in a kennel, in which case you should try one out) Could you go 12 hours without a piss, of course not.  Your husky can't eitherCould she go 12 hours without food? Sure, and longer as they are scavengers but I'll bet she is chomping at the bit for that alpo and this isn't helping the anxiety one bit.This day in age you can toss a stone and get a dog sitter to stop in during the day.  If you cannot afford one, you won't be able to afford hip displacement or whatever surgery your dog may need at some point.  Generally speaking bigger dogs can have more frequent problems associated with larger bodies.Cruelty, even born of stupidity is still Cruel Anything longer than 8 hours is too long to leave a dog alone, let alone a Husky!  And that is a big stretch most dog folk and vets I know would certainly say 6 is limit.  The fact is if you're leaving your dog this long you should reconsider having a dog, or making effort to learn to properly care for her.  One option I presume  you don't have is  to have a dog sitter come by and take the dogs out for an hour, let them relieve themselves and run/interact.  Huskies are very high energy, social animals what you are doing is abuse, period.  I am hard pressed to believe that you aren't seeing behavior from your dog that led you to even ask such a question.  Please do something about your dogs inprisonment. (Unless you have her out in some space to run, to which id say those beautiful creatures are escape artists too). Regardless how/where you keep this dog 12 hours is under any circumstance entirely too long, knock it off!

Is it okay if I leave my Husky puppy of about 3 months home alone for 6 hours as I have to go to school?

Puppies under six months of age shouldn't stay in a crate for more than three or four hours at a time. You HAVE TO COME BACK AND LET THEM OUT TO DO THEIR BUSINESS.They can't control their bladders and bowels for SIX F-ING HOURS. The same goes for adult dogs being housetrained. Physically, an older dog can hold it, but they don't know they're supposed to.Also, huskie is a breed that needs A LOT of exercise during the day. If you leave them in a crate U ultimately making that animal suffer and develop behavioral issues.Why did you get a dog if you don’t have time for it? What if puppy will choke on a toy, or eat something they shouldn’t or howls (especially huskies) and attract all neighbors? Huskies are social they need someone to be there for them.Do you have time for at least one hour to exercise the dog off-leash AND 30 mins to train them per day?Either give up your dog to people who have time for it or get a daily doggy care, ask somebody to babysit. Treat it like a child, would you leave your child for 6 hours totally unattended?Exactly.

My 6 months old siberian husky killed and ate a cat, leaving the head n the spine and the tail. IS THAT NORMAL?

Absolutely. Siberians are highly prey driven dogs. This doesn't mean the dog is a danger to you - just that it is a danger to small animals.

Was this a cat that wandered into your yard, or a cat the dog grew up with? Some Siberians can learn to tolerate a cat if they are raised from young puppyhood to understand that the cat is off limits...but even then, if it runs, the dog's prey instincts may kick in.

Strange cats are always fair game.

I once had one of my Siberian females bring me the head of a cat she and and the others had killed in the yard without my knowing. That was quite a nasty surprise.

Your first two answerers clearly don't know much about the breed.

How to get my Siberian Husky to stop killing live animals?

I have a 9 month old Siberian Husky that we are trying to figure out how to stop him from at least killing animals. The first time he killed a animal was 5 3 week old kittens. I understand that he was probably just trying to play with them the way he did their mother and bit too hard on them. Then the next day he killed and ate a bird. Then today about two weeks later he was found chewing on a squarrel. I was just wondering if there was a way to stop this or if we will have to get rid of him. I really don't want to get rid of him. he was my christmas present from my husband. He is still very good around my other dogs and around any kids that we have over at the house. Please if anyone would know what to do please help.

I'm currently house training a 4 month old Husky. Could use advise?

This is what I've tried so far:
- Taking poop/used potty pads outside to the yard, to leave her scent, to encourage her to go.
Dump the pee pads - you are only confusing this puppy

- Waited almost an hour for her to poop outside after nearly doing it in the house.
There is NO POINT keeping her outside for much over 5 minutes or she WILL find other things to do out there.

- Taking her to the same spot every time I take her out.
Unlike cats, dogs don't empty in the same place.

- Sticking to our daily schedule.
That's good because with Bowel Movements that should give you an idea about when she is likely to need to have a BM - digestion in the dog takes roughly 4 hours.

- Staying outside for at least 15 mins each time.
Again 5 minutes should be enough if you've worked out her bodily functions - timing

- Going on short walks to help her go.
That's good too BUT I have a b itch who refuses to empty, either, off her property

- Praising and rewarding her when she does something good, and not being angry with her when she does something bad.
Good too - praise when you get what you want, correct ONLY in the act and clean up mistakes without comment

The good news really is that at 4 months, a puppy should be more able to hold than an 8 week puppy. Our Basset came to us at 4 months and once into a routine, with me giving him the benefit of the doubt initially, until I saw what he could do, he went through the night without needing to be taken out.

NO PEE PADS. And for now, out after each nap immediately, after a feed depending on when she last went out, and after short period of playing. A healthy dog should only need to have a bowel movement as often as the number of meals it's having, perhaps plus one.
Apologies for the length but it seemed easier to answer each point this way.

My 5 month old husky killed my cockatiel yesterday...what can I do to make sure he doesn't hurt my cat too?

Certainly when you RESEARCHED the breed BEFORE you got it you read that Siberian Huskies have an INTENSE prey drive.

I can not believe you let this happen to your poor bird.
Also, you are allowing behaviors towards your cat that are going to escalate to a disaster.

Try going to some Siberian Husky rescue groups and see how many dogs are available that have a "NO CAT" symbol by them.

You get to work on this dog now in a serious and committed manner or you return him to the reputable breeder you got him from or surrender him to a rescue.

Siberians are NOT for everyone.

Here from a page about Siberian Huskies-
Cats???
Siberian Huskies have a very strong prey drive ... they are fast ... they are cunning! Many Huskies will efficiently kill small animals they encounter ... cats included. They can live peacefully with cats, but this is not usually the case, and it's only possible if they are introduced from the time they're puppies. If you're a cat owner, and you want a Siberian Husky, buy a young pup. If you're thinking about adopting from a shelter or Husky Rescue, don't take the chance unless you know a dog's history and it was raised with cats, or it's in foster care and doing well in a home with cats.

Did you ever do this profile

Did you ever read this from the Siberian Husky club of America

I know what I am speaking of, I had six Siberian huskies in my lifetime in a 25 year period.


ADD: Even a TRAINED Siberian will sometimes pretend they are deaf when you call them. Never CALL a dog if you know they will not come as that just reenforces them knowing they do not have to come.

This dog needs to be put trained. This dog should absolutely be on a leash when around the cat. The best thing to do would put a long light leash on him, and hope like heck he would take off after the cat, as he would hit the end of the leash you would give it a hard jerk to correct him and a command such as "out" or "leave it" or whatever you want to make it.

Siberians are hard headed when it comes to training and you MUST be more hard headed then they are.

Last but not least the reason I no longer have Siberian Huskies is because I have birds. I just would not take that risk.

How to convince my mom to let me have a Siberian Husky?

Huskies in general are very active and smart dogs and need a lot of stimulation. There's a reason huskies are usually used in dog sled teams and rescue work or owner's who are into a lot of skiing, snowboarding, and other activities.

Responsibilities for a normal dog: walk several times a day, feed twice a day, groom (brush several times a week since they shed and bathe), brush teeth at least 2x a week, give treats and greenies, give heart worm preventive medicine, have toys for him/her to play with, take them to the vet for immunizations and rabies shots along with yearly checkup and dental cleanings, have him/her neutered/spade, and be there for him/her. With a husky, you'll have to dedicate about 2 hours with play time or working. Without discipline and training along with enough to keep him/her occupied, huskies will get into a lot of things.

Now, that you know all of this, to convince your mom I'd imagine the best way is to put all of this into a contract stating that you are willing and ready for all of this responsibility and going to follow up on it every day. This means not going off with friends for any length of time without setting up the okay and someone else to take care of him/her or you can take the husky with you.

If you are not an active person, I'd suggest you find a breed that is more suited to your lifestyle. Huskies really aren't a breed for a beginner either unless the person does their research on the breed and training.
