Hi All, We're looking at moving from the UK to NZ with our husky in 3/4 months time. He'll be three years old, but has separation anxiety and I was a bit naive in thinking that someone's in cargo with them but that isn't the case. We're now worried as we've managed to leave him on his own for 3-4 hours but not for 12 hours as will be needed for this kind of flight. The pet travel operators think it will be fine, but we're worried/nervous and wondered if anyone's attempted this before? We have a few months to work with a trainer on this, but wondered in the meantime if anyone had any advice? Cheers in advance!

Hi! Hope all of you are well and your dogs are well. Can anyone tell me how good/bad is the "Josera" dog food brand? Also, how does it fair in comparison to Taste of the Wild and Royal Canine? Thank you for taking out the time to go through my post. I hope you have a nice day!

So I will be getting a purebred siberian husky puppy come February (she is 11 days old now) and I am going to be collecting a variety of different toys for her to see what she likes best. What kind of toys do your dogs like? What brands do you find the best? I know she will probably just destroy every toy as she ages, but I would like to find some good quality, budget friendly toys for her. I already have a puppy kong, some walmart toys that vary from squeakers, plush and balls. Today I went to a local pet store for boxing day sales and picked up a couple more toys at 50% off (yay!) and those toys vary from crinkle stuffing-less, bottle toy, rope toys, spiky ball to…

I’ve been offered a job in London on decent money. Was wondering if anyone on here would allow me or knows of anyone who would let me rent a room with dogs allowed in the house. i know this isn’t a normal request but someone’s gotta love animals as much as I do and could do with the extra cash. ive looked at renting a house but it’s too expensive for me. Any advice welcome.

Hello! We just bought a house and we're looking to add a dog to the family. There are a couple Siberian Husky puppies (9 weeks old) we're thinking about getting (one of them... not both!). Neither my husband or I have ever had a husky. We have 2 boys (10 and 15) and 2 adult cats. I've been reading "guides" and tips online about huskies and cats and it kinda seems like it'd be ok with certain conditions (training the dog ofc, cats having a place to run to for peace/safety, etc). But most of that seems to be about bringing a husky dog in... not a young pup and raising it around the cats. So I literally just registered here to get input from experienced Siberian-Hu…

Hello everyone. My almost 2 year old has been acting aggressively towards the other dogs that I have. She’s always been around them since I brought her to my home at 7 weeks and has never had any problems with them but for the last month she’s been very mean and aggressive to them. I’ve had to separate her from them for their safety and I just don’t know what to do anymore.

Hi All. Not sure if this the the correct place to post this? I having been having issues with footwear since I got Mowgli. First I brought a cheap £40 pair from Sports Direct and I wore from them in 2 months. At this point I was doing around 6 miles a day. I then decided to go for a £90 pair, again from Sports Direct. These lasted 2 weeks as they started leaking and were returned. I then bit the bullet and went for a £160 pair of Scarpa Boots. These felt amazing and were very water proof. After around 4 weeks I noticed the tread was wearing down very quickly and uneven. At week 6 I had worn through to the midsole on parts of the boots. Now walking around 10miles …

Hello, I have a question, how often and how long we need to take our husky for a walk? We often go 40 min 3 times a day and I start think that we should go more like 1-2hrs 3 times a day or its too much for 8months old doggo.

Hi all. Merry Christmas! I was wondering what fencing, posts etc people use for their Huskies. I have read that 6 foot chain-link is recommended but I was wondering how common this actually is. Specifically: What sort of fencing, how high, any anti-dig precautions? Do you use posts, tethers or cables? Do you use GPS tracking? Can you recommend any products? Has your set-up been successful? Thanks!

Having owned 2 Huskies for almost 15 years and now having two new 6 1/2 month old sibling puppies I was advised to look into littermate syndrome... I've read the information and see where it could be helpful to people with many breeds but being a long-term Husky owner already with years of experience, I don't see where it applies to Huskies in the same ways. I don't know of another breed that benefits and prefers to be in groups (packs) like Huskies do... Has anyone else run across this? Basically a professional trainer I was considering working with told me about it and one of his big points was doing separate training for each. I don't necessarily agree with that, e…

I'm not interested in mating my two huskies for colors and selling but in curiosity I am wondering if my red and white male and agouti colored female had puppies what mixture of colors would come out of them?

The weather here has been extremely hot, in the upper 90's. Yotie has taken to laying out in the sun, he actually asks to go out so he can sunbath! I let him lay there for about 10 minutes, he then comes in the house and drinks water and lays down in front of the fan! Is this normal( I'm finding that there is no normal for Sibes ). But I don't want him to over do in the hot! Anyone else have a Husky that sunbaths in the heat? He will only sunbath if it's over 90 degrees out side, cooler temperature and he lays in the shade. While we are working, he is usually in the house or the garage which is much cooler than the outside temp, but at lunch time or even in…

Hi everybody! I wanted to get others opinions on my husky puppies’ facial markings! I rescued him at 4 months old and he is now 6 months old! His mask around his eyes seems to be fading a bit but not as quickly as I anticipated. He also has spots going up his nose and I’m hoping they stay! Do you think the spots will stay into adulthood? Will the mask around his eyes completely fade? I’ve noticed his coat around his back and legs is starting to grow a bit of white under the chocolate. He also has super floppy ears and I haven’t noticed them starting to prick more with age, do you think they’ll stay floppy? I attached photos for reference, the first was when we first got h…
