Ninja is such a goof… always radiating his cheerfulness to the peoole around him.
.
People asked me how I trained Ninja. I am not a dog trainer, so I cannot give you real counsel.
.
Ninja grew up around dogs , not so much around humand… I adopted Ninja and feared he would not bond with me as a puppy would.
.
The first weeks I worked on making myself interesting, to tach him that humans can be fun, too… that it is worthwhile to pay attention to what I am doing.
I used boiled chicken hearts (cut into small pieces) that I dipped in salmon oil… all dogs in a 100m radius stopped obbeying their humans and approached me 😀😀
It was a very high value treat… but disgusting to touch. I gave him a piece each time Ninja looked at me…
Also I threw treats into the grass at the side of the path and stood still, pointed at the area… we would only move on when Ninja found the treat…
In the following weeks we made this a bit more difficult… and used more variety in…
Huskies are very curious, love to play and are easily bored.
Variety, doing different stuff… do unexpected things… like when you walk towards your house/parking lot, walk past it for a prolonged tour, he’ll be super excited (if he likes it)… that is basically what I based my training off…
Increase my „value“ to the dog and then continie with positive reinforcement/marker training from there.
