Hey there. I am the proud owner of a 5 month old, female, Siberian Husky and her name is Freya. My problems are that Freya is very bad when walking on a leash. She pulls, no matter how much I try and correct her and she tries to play fight with my other, almost 5 year old, dog. She's a Labrador and her name is Holly. I've had Holly since she was born (meaning I picked her out when she was tiny and took her home when she was old enough, just to be clear), and she walks beautifully on the lead. I let Freya off the leash once we get to the big field at my local park, along with Holly. Thing is, Holly comes back but Freya follows Holly. If you tell her to "come here" odds are she won't. She'll look at you and show she's heard you, but she won't come to you unless Holly does. Holly does, but occasionally she becomes lost in her own world and ignores me... I've taught Freya the "come" command and even whistle commands, but she still ignores me around the other dog. I've tried everything in terms of correction with Freya. I don't want to have to keep her on a leash when the other dog is free to run as she pleases, but it's coming to that. Freya doesn't have a lot of concentration when the other dog is around, and if I take Holly out without her she will scream until we come home. She's incredibly needy when it comes to being with people, she hates to be left alone and if she is she will cry the place down, irritating my parents and brother. Can anyone help me please?!?! I've attached a photo of Freya, sitting at the bathroom door when I'm about to put her in a bath... She hates those :') - Wolfee!
