for great dog training tips and advice
@savehedda FYI each and every dog that ever lived with us was treated with great respect and love. No dog was ever “dragged” anywhere. They lived in great conditions with lots of opportunities to run around and play (and Pee).
they dont want to play and pee they are sled dogs they want to get out there and pull the shit out of that sled
i sit in a 3 wheeled buggie and get pulled along by a kite, f**k the kite !!! i want huskies !!!! brilliant video !!! loved it and the dogs !!!
@savehedda I do think that you should learn what a husky is all about before you start to criticize someone. When I watch this video I see a group of dogs that are soooo excited about pulling that they can’t contain themselves. I can also see that they continuously have smiles on their faces. I really can’t wait to start training my puppy!
that is sooooooooo cute:)
im getting an alaskan malamute, and i fell in love with dog sledding, how do you start training as a puppy? any tips?
@Batchagaloop @Batchagaloop Make it fun. Hugs, kisses & cookies! Work with experienced racers. Put new dogs with experienced dogs; they will teach the pups. Training = conditioning & learning the basics of team work. Practice makes perfect i.e. positive reinforcement & repetition of good runs. Hydration; they run on water and good food. Dogs experience stress, so pay attention. Some dogs look like good sled dogs but they arent, so dont force it. Have fun!
Thanks for your comment.
Bet that’d be fun!
how far do you go in the summer?
Great way to wear them out! I go on a run every day with my lab, but she couldn’t pull this off if she tried. Lovely dogs.
incontrivertible evidence to anyone with eyes that sledding with huskies is what they love doing best -they’re sooo excited -and they’ve done this lots of times before so if they didn’t love it they wouldn’t be looking so excited, durr!
I LOVE sled-dogs, and racing. Its my lifelong dream to race in the iditorod. When I had my dog, Jazzie, I taught her to pull me in a wagon, she also knew a bit of Agility. YEA FOR SLED-DOGS!!!!!!
Thats awesome, and you can tell the dogs really love this.
They couldn’t be doing this with gammy tickers
@savehedda
Oh good gawd, they did not drag them out. They simply secured the dog so attaching the clip wouldn’t be more difficult with such a eager dog. This is well kept equipment and so are their dogs. Gorgeous coats and such. Not like they are lining them up to shot them. Least they are not just backyard ordainments for people to say that have a dog. This is respect, respecting that a working breed has a background and they are allowing them the chance to follow it. In a fun way.
@savehedda
shut up. dont even start with that.
how do you train a normal dog to do that but on snow?cuz i love it!but my dog is only a cross between rotwiler and german shepered but he look like a husky
beautiful dogs~!! i wish I could sled with my husky but we live in tx =(
Hey,Im from Turkey/Samsun and I couldnt find a dog scooter in my city,is there anything else I can use?Like a kid scooter maybe?Or just anything else and here it almost never snows would it hurt them or be bad for them if I try it on grass or path?I have a Siberian husky which is 6 months old now.
Is linda a husky or a mutt cause she dose not look like a husky
@AmazonTraveler i am getting a husky pup from a breeder soon and well i live in a hot and cold place and what if you don’t live around anyone that dog sleds.so there has been no dog that has been trained to dog sled exepte my friend that lives down the street from me that has a husky but the dog is very stuburn and will not learn dog sledding so he gave up,but how can i train my pup?
Oh good
@savehedda i think those dogs look quuite happy doing what they do if you ask me!
@Bugie78
