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.

What is this all about? Loki, the young male, has been doing this to my old guy since he was a puppy. Does it look like play? Have any of you with more than one dog seen this behavior?

My two do that on occasion. Sometimes it leads to full out husky play other times it doesn't. I don't find it anything to worry about...just 2 dogs talking to one another.

Definitely nothing to worry about! The young one is definitely trying to get your older one to play. This is exactly what Kody does to Mya! Sometimes it turns into play time, others it's just a full blown husky argument!

Hayden does this ALL THE TIME!!!!! He does it to all the dogs are the dog park trying to entice them to play or chase him. It usually makes dog owners worried that he's being mean, then I have to explain "he's trying to piss you're dog off basically to the point where he chases him". Older dog's get upset with him, but the younger ones tend to want to play when he does this. Either way, I think it's cute

Trillion does this to my brothers dog onyx, I always say they look like fighting hippos when they do it.

Kale does this to ME! haha he paws at me and flops on the floor doing that side-digging thing he does and yammers up a storm then he tucks tail and runs around me room and paws at me. Goober. It's usually right when I get home from work and he wants to play outside

My husky and chihuahuas do this to each other with a very high pitched bark/howl its pretty funny unless someone bites an ear and then my oldest chihuahua ally(alpha/pack leader) is onto the other two to knock it off its pretty funny
