With jumping skills like that I see why people recommend tall fences for a husky.

Can't speak from personal experience but I've seen a few videos that show some very well trained huskies.

No me either, but it would be pretty awesome! Sheba has a long way to go, but she is a fast learner so I have high hopes for her.

HOW does one go about training a dog to jump through a hoop made of your arms?! I can not fathom how that training even started.

Believe it or not, that isn't actually that hard of a thing to teach. The natural grace and accuracy maybe, but communicating "Hey, try to jump through this hole right here", the concept is easy. Training the command for jump, and using the leg comes first. He no doubt started very low to the ground, and worked up. Once "Jump" is trained and consistent, use the command while making a hoop instead of using your leg.
As far as having a dog that well trained. Keeonah IS that well trained, I just never had the desire (or the idea) to make a pup jump to my side. That is pretty ridiculous lol.

What a smart husky. I wonder how he got it to jump back next to him when he turns, and how he taught him to go backwards. I can't help to think how tiring it must have been for the husky to learn all that. Or maybe they like the mental stimulation...for some reason my mind always goes to ... is the dog being torchured into learning all this so precisely? Maybe because I don't have a husky yet lol.

I can't get my dog to jump an inch of the ground, let alone 4 feet through my arms. So awesome! Trainer must be using super secret treats that can make a dog do anything.
