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.

So advise on puppy biting and chewing her leash. Trying to get her used to it walking around the yard but she just sits down and starts chewing the leash. Thank goodness I bought a lupine leash.(get a free one if she chews through it)

It's a six foot leash.. I didn't want to buy the ones that can adjust because I heard they teach her to pull?

our girl used to do this, I bought a leather studded leash and started teaching her to stay close to me, I found the more slack given in the leash the more likely she was to chew. Also if you are willing use a halter on her, she'll be more annoyed with it than the fact that she wants to chew the leash and will stop

It's normal. She will get used to it once she walks on the leash a bit longer. Cato did it, and will still do it when he gets annoyed. Lupine is a great brand, we use it to. I wouldn't go out and get a new one, when the one you have is working just fine. I also don't recommend a halter at this point in the game ( I don't recommend a halter at all for huskies, they will pull through almost anything). Most huskies will pull you no matter what. Delilah behaves, thankfully, but Cato doesn't anymore. We got him a martingale collar and he is doing much better.

Has anyone tried putting hot sauce on the leash ? I don't know if I like that because it seems that might make her hate the leash more
