Does anybody know where i could get a free guide on how to train a siberian husky?

Answer 1

Have you checked your local library? You could also check the internet.

Answer 2

Siberian huskies are tough dogs but they are very smart and can learn quickly.

For basic obedience, I recommend you look at your local library for "Siberian Huskies for Dummies" or "the Dog Whisperer", both are very helpful books. If your local library does not have them, you can ask them (usually available on their website) for an interlibrary loan.

A good website for husky-specific training tips was mentioned above: http://www.husky-petlove.com/husky_alpha_training.html. I tried these ideas with my dog and had great results.

Some tips:
Huskies cannot be trained to be off a leash. Period.

If you NEVER feed your dog from the table, (s)he will NEVER beg.

If you limit food (most Huskies only need 1 cup of dry food twice per day, according to our vet), then you can use food as a great motivator, even if it is just a small morsel of bread or a kibble. To train your dog to kiss with his nose, you can say "kiss" then physically move his nose to contact your cheek, then say "good boy" and give a food reward. After about 5 of these (s)he will be trained.

If basic obedience is a problem, make sure you are giving your husky enough exercise. It makes a huge difference.

Good luck.

Answer 3

You did not say what kind of training you are looking for.

Basic obedience? There is a lot of information out there and it just depends on the method or modification you want to work with. It is best that you do the training yourself. There are training classes everywhere you look if you want to do in that kind of setting to were there are a lot of distractions of other dogs and other people around. I like to get the basic training done without all the extra distractions. Once the basics are installed it is wise to go to different places so that the footing is different. Like a walk down a side walk, walk them through a carpeted area, bare ground, think forest etc. Also where people and other animals are so that he/she learns to be observant but will not break her training.

If you want instructions on how to teach him/her to pull a sled start out with, say a wagon pulling a couple of kids or rocks. I don't think this is what you were looking for cause you didn't say if you had several or just one.

I myself like the behavior modification rather than the method training. I feel that it is more reliable. I have used this to train police dogs and personal protection dogs, search and rescue, personal pets and it works for all types of training.

Good luck
