I would like to get to know your husky

[Smokey]

Just a few questions to understand what type of personality your husky has. I am always enamored by the different personalities that huskies can have and would like to compare your husky's personality with Smokey's. Unfortunately I can't meet all of them so show me yours!

1. When your husky disobeys you, how does he do it? i.e. talks back, runs away, turns a deaf ear, won't look you in the eye etc.

2. What commands/tricks does your husky understand?

3. Where is your husky's favorite place to be scratched?

4. Does your husky always pull the leash/lead? (when you walk, run, bike etc.)

5. Does your husky play fetch and bring back the item more than once if you throw it?

6. Does your husky have any major/minor health issues?

7. Is there anything that your husky does that totally drives you up a wall and annoys you?

8. What is your husky's favorite way to get exercise?

9. Does your husky have a comfort place, or toy, or person etc?

10. What is the strangest/naughtiest/worst thing your husky has done?

11. In a safe but limitless place, can your husky be trusted off leash? (Am asking because I've seen pictures of huskies off leash of leash on this)

12. How does your husky show you that he loves you? (This one is important to me because I can't tell if Smokey shows me affection without me knowing)

I have a lot more but I'm sure this list is already too long and I don't want people to be deterred by the midpoint if they get tired of answering questions. I will definitely post more later! )

S = Sampson N = Nikita (not really a husky but close)

1. When your husky disobeys you, how does he do it? i.e. talks back, runs away, turns a deaf ear, won't look you in the eye etc.

S= talks back (especially if you point at him while telling him off), turns a deaf ear and eats faster when telling him to get out of the cats food N= turns a deaf ear, runs off with whatever you are telling her to leave, looks at me like I am an idiot for trying to telling her not to do something before proceeding to do it anyway.

2. What commands/tricks does your husky understand?

S= sit, shake, down, kisses, around (this is used when he has went the wrong way around a post/tree/me). He used to know the names of several stuffed animals but they aren't allowed them anymore as they fight over them N= sit, shake, down, kisses

3. Where is your husky's favorite place to be scratched?

S= rubbing your palm over the entrance to his ears and back at the base of his tail N=no place in particular

4. Does your husky always pull the leash/lead? (when you walk, run, bike etc.)

S= at the start of walks N=at the start of walks and when she sees another dog up until she gets tired (but only if she doesn't have her nose halter on)

5. Does your husky play fetch and bring back the item more than once if you throw it?

S= a couple times N= never and don't even think about trying to take it off her

6. Does your husky have any major/minor health issues?

Nope, only health issue in 12 years was Sampson getting a lump on his anus 1-2 yrs ago, vet said was cause he was still intact.

7. Is there anything that your husky does that totally drives you up a wall and annoys you?

S= nope not really, wish he wasn't a runner so he could be off lead but thats life N= constantly getting into everything, stealing food

8. What is your husky's favorite way to get exercise?

Both = their favourite way would be to run, but they settle for walks and swimming in the river

9. Does your husky have a comfort place, or toy, or person etc?

S= under the bed N= Nope

10. What is the strangest/naughtiest/worst thing your husky has done?

S= strangest would be coming and sitting by the bath staring at me while Nikita was doing naughty things in the other room, almost as if to say 'see me here remember later that I was right here'. He isn't really naughty, but does like to eat the cat poo out of the litter box

N= strangest - she likes to push her nose right up against my chest and take a really deep breath. Naughtiest - this list could be a mile long. I think her worst was pulling the dryer away from the wall and making the dryer vent whole big enough for her to climb through in order to get outside

11. In a safe but limitless place, can your husky be trusted off leash? (Am asking because I've seen pictures of huskies off leash of leash on this)

S= never could in the past, might be able to now as he is a bit older but wouldn't risk it to find out N= probably but wouldn't/couldn't ever risk it.

12. How does your husky show you that he loves you? (This one is important to me because I can't tell if Smokey shows me affection without me knowing)

[AnnaB]

awww bless him! Nanuk will also get a look of total bliss appear on his face too lol

[Smokey]

Thanks for answering. keep them coming. I really enjoy reading them! I thought I'd answer them too (in case anyone cares).

1. When your husky disobeys you, how does he do it? i.e. talks back, runs away, turns a deaf ear, won't look you in the eye etc.

Smokey won't make eye contact and will stand there if it's a trick and he doesn't wanna do it. If it's a command like off or come here, he'll just look at me, smiles (swear to god) and continue doing whatever he wants.

2. What commands/tricks does your husky understand?

commands: sit, stay, wait, off, come here, back off, wee on command, get up, lie down

tricks: growl and bark on command, shake, stand on two legs, roll over, play dead, bow, gimme five, go under my leg as I walk, fetch (we're working on it...)

3. Where is your husky's favorite place to be scratched?

Tummy! If you scratched in the right spot his hind leg will start to tick. It's the cutest/funniest thing ever.

4. Does your husky always pull the leash/lead? (when you walk, run, bike etc.)

Um yes I thought so but now that it's so hot he gets tired and walks right beside me instead. I guess he just needs to get tired.

5. Does your husky play fetch and bring back the item more than once if you throw it?

We are working on it. Sometimes when I throw something more than 3-4 times he'll just looks at me like "why do you keep doing that. go get it yourself now"

6. Does your husky have any major/minor health issues?

Not that I know of.

7. Is there anything that your husky does that totally drives you up a wall and annoys you?

Nothing really. But he used to eat poo sometimes when we'd go on our walks. It drove me nuts and I'd stick my arm down his throat and take as much of it out if he hadn't swallowed it already.

8. What is your husky's favorite way to get exercise?

Smokey just loves to go on a walk with me.

9. Does your husky have a comfort place, or toy, or person etc?

Not really.

10. What is the strangest/naughtiest/worst thing your husky has done?

Worst: He picked up a small dog by it's scruff and totally put the dog in shock.

Strangest: He saw these tall piles of single small rocks stacked one on top of the other (someone had obviously made it). There were 3 of them about 5-6 feet tall and he totally freaked out. Slowly he got closer and closer to them, sniffed them and walked away from them as if nothing had happened.

11. In a safe but limitless place, can your husky be trusted off leash? (Am asking because I've seen pictures of huskies off leash of leash on this)

Nope. Not at all. But we've had several accidents where he's either gotten out of his harness or I've dropped his leash and I've still managed to get him back within 10 minutes or so.

12. How does your husky show you that he loves you? (This one is important to me because I can't tell if Smokey shows me affection without me knowing)

Honestly, I have no idea. Sometimes when i come home he wags his tail like crazy but then he simultaneously "grooogroogroowwwoowooows" at me as if he's angry at me. I guess when he comes and sits next to me it's flattering. lol

[Sarah]

these are great!!
