Hellllo everyone! Just adopted a red/white husky a few weeks ago! He's 11months old and getting bigger everyday He's had two prior owners before me so I'm having a little trouble assessing his training but hopefully I'll be able to get things together with your help I'll post pictures soon!

oh yeah, his name is Elf haha

Welcome! I love the name Elf, so cute!! Please post picture's.

Hi, I'm from Livonia.

We will be in Charlotte on Saturday. Your neck of the woods!

Elf is an adorable name! I'm sure with some reassurance his training will be just fine. Congrats on your new baby!

And welcome to the site!

here he is

He's managed to unlock his crate a couple times, still trying to figure out how he does that...maybe by sheer force?

My goodness, he's handsome. I love the triangle on his forehead.

What kind of locking does his crate have? Aevyn's was two of the slide over-than-down, and he'd never managed to figure them out (both of them, anyway).

His crate just has two bars that slide into place... should I look into buying a different one.. might be cheaper just using a pad lock haha

If theres a place to attach them to, maybe just get some twist tyes and make sure you watch him so he doesn't chew 'em off. We had a cat who managed to do similar feats of escaping with a cage with a lock like that one.

My neighbor uses two small padlocks on her dogs crate lol, so far Balon hasn't gotten out!

Wow he is beautiful love the name elf also I love the golden brown eyes..

He's chewed threw his leash so I just use the little clasp from that to hold the gate together

I wouldn't pad lock a crate - could be dangerous in the event someone had to get int hat had no combination or key - try a plastic crate, they have a different lockign mechanism.
