Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| I have a 8 week old husky name Kobi. Today I brought over my girlfriend maltipoo who is 1 year old and is a girl.
Kobi is very aggressive and chases her around and we can see that he sometimes pushes her and even tries to bite her.
Is this normal playing? The maltipoo sometimes just wants to sniff him but he just wants to chase her around.

| That sounds like typical play for a husky pup. What makes you call it aggressive? Sibes are very rough players and they are often mistaken for being aggressive when they're just being their typical rough selves.
And some 8 wk old husky pups play almost as rough as adult sibes, they start young! _________________ |

| I was just trying to be sure. because at times the maltipoo would cry a little bit because Kobi would bite her neck. |

| The neck, cheek and front shoulder areas are favorites of Huskies when wrestling each other. Maltipoops just are not built to take the thrashing that Huskies like to give and willingly receive from each other. Thats why "its a husky thing." |

| Valerie, how is your Dakota with your chi girls when playing? I always kept my Dakota away from smaller dogs mainly because I didn't want the owner of the small dog to freak out on him when he got rough. He has definately gentled with age though. |

He's way too rough with the chi girls. I have to keep a close eye on them at all times for the chihuahuas' safety even though Dakota doesn't meant to hurt them. The chi girls have learned to scream bloody murder at the slightest hint that Dakota is getting too excited. It's actually quite funny when Dakota goes barreling after the girls in the yard, Faith pancakes and Glory runs like mad screaming. _________________ |

| Dexter is 9 weeks old, and is playing rough WHEN he plays.. But with strangers, he is quite soft in his play.. But when he knows the dogs he is really rough, and he seem to really need a "stop it" from the othe rdog.. he doesnt take the small hints from them, he just keeps playing |

You're so right!!! The neck and cheeks are the main spots that Mya and Kody go for when playing! Sometimes I swear Mya is going to ripe his cheek off..LOL! Definitely A HUSKY THING! |

Kitty always goes for the neck! I'm afraid Luka is going to get a bad case of "turkey neck" in a few years! Mine sound and look awful when they are playing. Its hard to make people understand that they are just playing, not killing each other! |

| Yup. Husky play. It took a while for the neighbors to really understand how our dogs play. LOL. _________________ www.itsahuskything.com It's a husky thing... you wouldn't understand. |

That made me giggle... I just imagined the Chi girls... I've never really saw Ginger play until Storm came along. And then when Storm started at her neck, I swore he was biting hard enough to cut her open. The neighbor kids in the back of us would say to their friends while they're on the other side of the fence, 'Their dogs are fighting again. They fight a lot.' _________________ |

It certainly looks that way to the untrained eye, doesn't it? LOL _________________ |
